Welcome to [i]Decorative Dragons[/i], a DtB season dressing/scrying/outfit challenge game!
This is my first ever OOF event and I am unfortunately not super creative in the writing department, so I don't have fancy lore for you - just an amalgamation of some of my favorite push/festival activities, namely scrying, dressing and random outfit challenges (which as far as I know were only done in BSJ 2023 - maybe we'll get some more folks inspired by seeing them again now?).

[img alt="Rules & Information"]https://i.imgur.com/g8IbX4k.png[/img]
This game consists of three separate challenges posted daily:
scrying, dressing, and random outfits.
[/center]
[LIST]
[*]There is no judging component of the game, but every challenge completed gets you one ticket towards the participants' raffle at the end. (However, I may be showcasing some entries I particularly liked at the end of the day, just for fun!)
[*]Challenges that are done before the daily deadline also each net you a ticket towards the small daily raffle!
[*]You're welcome to complete challenges after their daily deadline has passed, but will not be elegible for the daily raffle after the deadline. [i]Please do not
edit posts after the daily deadline, as I'm using post times to confirm eligibility.[/i] I plan to refresh the challenges between 01:00 and 03:00 FR time, and the deadline for the previous day's challenge will be at [b]08:00 FR time[/b] the day after it was posted - so somewhere between 29 and 31 hours on average.
[*]Participation also nets you tickets for our main DtB Raffle! 1 ticket per completed challenge per day (so up to 3 points) and a bonus 7 points for completing at least one of each day's tasks! These raffle tickets are [b]not[/b] tied to the daily prizes in this thread and will be tallied at the end of the week - so you don't have to worry about the daily deadlines for these![/LIST]
For the [b]Scrying Challenge[/b], use the scrying workshop to create a dragon that fits the prompt - easy peasy. Feel free to link to or include any (appropriate) reference pictures!
For the [b]Dressing Challenge[/b], use the dressing room to create an outfit inspired by the prompt - some will request the inclusion of specific types of items, and some are just Vibes[sup]TM[/sup]. [i]Unless otherwise listed, there are no restrictions on which items should be included, and the outfits can be created for mannequins, scries, dragons you own, dragons you don't own, dragons that don't exist, etc.[/i]
For the [b]Random Outfit Challenge[/b] we'll be playing with a variation on @cordifolium's [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/qnc/3241968/1#post_3241968]Random Outfit Challenge from BSJ 2023[/url] - thanks for the fun challenge, inspiration, and blessing to riff off your idea! :)
The rules of the random outfit challenge will vary day to day based on theme, but all of them follow the same basis - I'm using cordifolium's [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/forga/3233288/1#post_3233288]Random Outfit Generator[/url] to put together an outfit with a variable number of pre-selected apparel items in it. You will then make your own outfit using those items, with restrictions on how many apparel pieces you can remove or change. I may also add non-random items to meet the daily theme, and I have a few unusual rules in mind, but all of them have the same basic premise - make your own outfit out of what you've been given and within the daily restrictions. New and detailed instructions will be posted each day!

[size=5][u][b]Bonny Beastclans[/b][/u][/size]
[size=4]Today's challenges continue from yesterday's -- celebrating Sornieth isn't complete without also celebrating its non-dragon denizens! I'm very much looking forward to an expansion of the updated beastclans lore, but in the meantime let's try to take the best parts of the old versions, plus our own creative interpretations, and have some fun with it.
The deadline for entries to qualify for
[b]Saturday's[/b] daily draw is [b]08:00 FR time on Sunday, 17 December[/b]
The deadline for entries to qualify for
[b]the overall event raffle[/b] is [b]12:00 noon FR time on Monday, 18 December[/b].
(Why not 08:00? Because I won't be up by then so it's not like I need it to be done before I can wake up and compile everything.)

[size=4][b]Scrying[/b][/size]
Scry a dragon who either represents one of the beastclans or other sapient non-dragons of Sornieth! I recommend this thread by Batcrooks for references: [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gde/2721066/2#post_39821057]The Beastclan Guide[/url] - the link provided is to page 2 with the beastclans guide, and other sapient beings are on page 3.
[img]https://i.imgur.com/e6j9AlE.png[/img]
[size=4][b]Dressing[/b][/size]
Create an outfit that a member of one of the beastclans would wear (or - see the scrying challenge - another sapient non-dragon being) OR an outfit featuring items the dragon would have traded with non-dragons to obtain.

[size=4][b]Scrying[/b][/size]
Scry a dragon representing an animal we might call a 'small friend'! Take inspiration from the apparel list below, the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/3295452#post_55669671]DtB Ornament sets[/url] (try E, J, and N!), or your favorite animal that could reasonably fit on a sofa. But not moose. Moose are *bigger* than the sofa.

[size=4][b]Dressing[/b][/size]
Create an outfit featuring one of the animal companion apparel pieces!
Example apparel might include:

[size=4][b]Scrying[/b][/size]
Scry a dragon representing a pastry, patisserie, confection, or other dessert or baked good! (Those are all the thematic words I could come up with; feel free to point out more in your posts. I'm sure there are many I didn't think of!)
[img]https://i.imgur.com/e6j9AlE.png[/img]
[size=4][b]Dressing[/b][/size]
Oops, all random -- today's dressing challenge is just a modification of the random apparel challenge!
Create an outfit that meets one or more of the following criteria:
1. Features a furred / fluffy dragon breed (like the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/3293315/1#post_3293315]Hellebrats Bakery dragon[/url]) - can be a mannequin
[b]OR [/b]
2. Features a dragon or scry in tan/brown range colors (like a cookie) - cannot be a mannequin, as those are not brown
[b]AND[/b]
A. Mimics / is reminiscent of the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/3293315/1#post_55610418]discovered cookies from the bakery event[/url] (can be as simple as color palette!)
[b]OR[/b]
B. Uses any item from one or more of these sets:
[indent][item=preserving chitin armor][item=lion's armor][item=forest wrapping set]
[item=proper suit][item=citrine teardrop jewelry box][item=iron filigree armor][/indent]
So the possible challenge configurations are 1A, 1B, 2A, and 2B. Try to make anything presentable out of the random combos - bonus satisfaction points if you still make it baking related, somehow (but no bonus tickets -- again, not a judging contest).

How to additionally randomize the random apparel challenge??
Genuinely unsure, added rule variations instead.

[size=4][b]Scrying[/b][/size]
Scry a cozy dragon - this could be a dragon who's well adapted for winter, a dragon that reminds you of cozy things -- anything goes, so long as it's cozy!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/e6j9AlE.png[/img]
[size=4][b]Dressing[/b][/size]
Create an outfit for keeping cozy! Whether trekking through the icy tundra, playing in the snow, or cuddled up indoors, what kind of warm winter gear would your dragon wear?

[size=4][b]Random Apparel Challenge[/b][/size]
I've put the changes for the day in colored text to try to make it clearer! Site accents are still okay, but no swaps today! There are also 11 instead of 10 items - there were no wing item until item 11 on the random list. To even out the increase, you can remove up to 4 pieces of apparel today.

[size=5][u][b]Lights All Aglow[/b][/u][/size]
[size=4]During the short days and long nights, many Earth cultures engage in winter festivals to brighten homes and spirits during winter's cold and dark -- how would the dragons of Sornieth do this? (We in Nature think they'd dress up the Behemoth all fancy!)
Check out the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf/3295452#post_55669671]DtB Badges[/url] on offer this year - a lot of badges are light related in some way! (Sets B, G, and N all have different relationships with the concept, for examples.)
[img]https://i.imgur.com/e6j9AlE.png[/img]
[size=4][b]Scrying[/b][/size]
Scry a dragon themed around light - the phenomenon, not the flight (though the flight is also ok, of course). Candles, lanterns, glowbugs, stars, fires -- anything that might brighten up a dark winter!
[img]https://i.imgur.com/e6j9AlE.png[/img]
[size=4][b]Dressing[/b][/size]
Create an outfit themed around glowing or lights of any kind! It doesn't have to be related to winter.

[size=4]Today's challenges continue from yesterday's -- celebrating Sornieth isn't complete without also celebrating its non-dragon denizens! I'm very much looking forward to an expansion of the updated beastclans lore, but in the meantime let's try to take the best parts of the old versions, plus our own creative interpretations, and have some fun with it.
The deadline for entries to qualify for
[b]Saturday's[/b] daily draw is [b]08:00 FR time on Sunday, 17 December[/b]

Past challenges are available to complete until the end of the event and are eligible for tickets to the overall event raffle and the DtB Raffle but are not eligible for tickets for the daily drawing.
Sunday - Small Friends
Scrying
Scry a dragon representing an animal we might call a 'small friend'! Take inspiration from the apparel list below, the DtB Ornament sets (try E, J, and N!), or your favorite animal that could reasonably fit on a sofa. But not moose. Moose are *bigger* than the sofa.
Dressing
Create an outfit featuring one of the animal companion apparel pieces!
Example apparel might include:
Ferret Friend
Apparel
A full friendship finds fantastic fellows forgathered.
500
Friend Budgies
Apparel
My best friends are my budgies. Just don't tell my other best friends.
500
Beagle
Apparel
The happy nature of this dog makes for a joyful hunting companion.
0
Mainecoon
Apparel
A lovable friend that will spend hours keeping your seat warm - what you wanted it back?
Random Apparel Challenge
Here's today's! We're starting off with the OG Classic, same rules as the original challenge!
Transform this random outfit into something presentable!
You may remove up to 3 pieces of apparel.
You may add as many apparel pieces as you'd like.
You can put the outfit on a scry, your own dragon, or leave it on a mannequin (doesn't have to be the one provided) - feel free to change up the breeds!
You may re-layer the apparel pieces as you see fit.
Today's challenges are inspired by the Hellebrats Bakery event - check out their creative cookie mystery tins!
Scrying
Scry a dragon representing a pastry, patisserie, confection, or other dessert or baked good! (Those are all the thematic words I could come up with; feel free to point out more in your posts. I'm sure there are many I didn't think of!)
Dressing
Oops, all random -- today's dressing challenge is just a modification of the random apparel challenge!
Create an outfit that meets one or more of the following criteria:
1. Features a furred / fluffy dragon breed (like the Hellebrats Bakery dragon) - can be a mannequin OR
2. Features a dragon or scry in tan/brown range colors (like a cookie) - cannot be a mannequin, as those are not brown
AND
A. Mimics / is reminiscent of the discovered cookies from the bakery event (can be as simple as color palette!) OR
B. Uses any item from one or more of these sets:
Preserving Chitin Armor
Chests
Contains the Preserving arm chitin, mandible helmet, chitin breastplate, leg chitin, tail segments, and wing segments. 6 items.
5250
Lion's Armor
Chests
Contains the Lion's Wing Fans, Breastplate, Helmet, Leg Armor, Shoulder Pads, Arm Guards, and Tail Guard. 7 items.
11000
Forest Wrapping Set
Chests
Contains the Forest Head, Neck, Chest, Arm, Leg, Wing, and Tail Wraps. 7 items.
5800
Proper Suit
Chests
Contains the proper top hat, waistcoat, monocle, spats, cane, tailcoat, pants, ring, dress shirt, and tail spat. 10 items.
6800
Citrine Teardrop Jewelry Box
Chests
Contains the Teardrop Citrine Bracelet, Earrings, Ring, Choker, Necklace, Pendant, Anklet, Armlet, Belt, Leg Band, Tail Ring, and Wing Loop. 12 items.
7890
Iron Filigree Armor
Chests
Contains the Iron Filigree Banner, Boots, Gauntlets, Helmet, Tail Guard, Breastplate, and Wing Guards. 7 items.
14000
So the possible challenge configurations are 1A, 1B, 2A, and 2B. Try to make anything presentable out of the random combos - bonus satisfaction points if you still make it baking related, somehow (but no bonus tickets -- again, not a judging contest).
Random Apparel Challenge
How to additionally randomize the random apparel challenge??
Genuinely unsure, added rule variations instead.
Transform this random outfit into something presentable!
You may remove up to 3 pieces of apparel.
You may add up to as many of the random pieces you left on the outfit. So if you remove 3 pieces, you'll have 7 left and can add 7 new ones, etc.
You may change any 1 (one) random apparel for EITHERthe same item in a different color variationorany other item from the same apparel set.
You can put the outfit on a scry, your own dragon, or leave it on a mannequin (doesn't have to be the one provided) - feel free to change up the breeds!
You may re-layer the apparel pieces as you see fit.
Today's challenges are inspired by the Floral Fauna RNG adoptables program- check out their creative cookie mystery tins!
The deadline for entries to qualify for Tuesday's's daily draw is 04:15 FR time on Wednesday, 13 December
Scrying
Scry a dragon representing (or reminiscent of) a ruminant animal - that's deer and relatives!
Check out the article on Ruminantia on Wikipedia - you might surprised as to who's in there! Deer specifically are in Cervidae if you want to be even narrower in scope - but I say the more the merrier!
If you've gotten any deer from Floral Fauna feel free to use them as inspiration!
Dressing
Create an outfit featuring one (or more?) of Flight Rising's antler apparel items! (Antler-style items that don't have 'antler' in the title are also okay!)
Spring Antlers
Apparel
New growth signals spring's arrival!
1200
Summer Antlers
Apparel
Sunny days signal summer's arrival!
1200
Autumn Antlers
Apparel
Riotous colors signal Autumn's arrival!
1200
Winter Antlers
Apparel
Frozen mornings signal Winter's arrival!
1200
Bone Antlers

An impressive set of antlers, but they probably aren't natural.
1450
Tawny Antlers
Apparel
An impressive set of antlers, but they probably aren't natural.
1450
Ebony Antlers
Apparel

Random Apparel Challenge
I've put the changes for the day in colored text to try to make it clearer! The rule limiting adding apparel from yesterday has been removed, and today's' rule change allows site accents and non-full-coverage skins.
Transform this random outfit into something presentable!
You may remove up to 3 pieces of apparel.
You may change any 1 (one) random apparel for EITHERthe same item in a different color variationorany other item from the same apparel set.
You can put the outfit on a scry, your own dragon, or leave it on a mannequin (doesn't have to be the one provided) - feel free to change up the breeds!
You may re-layer the apparel pieces as you see fit.
Site accents or non full coverage skins are allowed! Site skins only (includes fests)!
Today's challenges are inspired by the winter weather in the Northern Hemisphere and as we approach Ice's upcoming festival!
Scrying
Scry a cozy dragon - this could be a dragon who's well adapted for winter, a dragon that reminds you of cozy things -- anything goes, so long as it's cozy!
Dressing
Create an outfit for keeping cozy! Whether trekking through the icy tundra, playing in the snow, or cuddled up indoors, what kind of warm winter gear would your dragon wear?
Random Apparel Challenge
I've put the changes for the day in colored text to try to make it clearer! Site accents are still okay, but no swaps today! There are also 11 instead of 10 items - there were no wing item until item 11 on the random list. To even out the increase, you can remove up to 4 pieces of apparel today.
Transform this random outfit into something presentable!
You may remove up to 4 pieces of apparel.
This is where the swap rule usually is - however, no swap rule today! The colors and items stay as-is.
You can put the outfit on a scry, your own dragon, or leave it on a mannequin (doesn't have to be the one provided) - feel free to change up the breeds!
You may re-layer the apparel pieces as you see fit.
Site accents or non full coverage skins are allowed! Site skins only (includes fests)!
During the short days and long nights, many Earth cultures engage in winter festivals to brighten homes and spirits during winter's cold and dark -- how would the dragons of Sornieth do this? (We in Nature think they'd dress up the Behemoth all fancy!)
Check out the DtB Badges on offer this year - a lot of badges are light related in some way! (Sets B, G, and N all have different relationships with the concept, for examples.)
Scrying
Scry a dragon themed around light - the phenomenon, not the flight (though the flight is also ok, of course). Candles, lanterns, glowbugs, stars, fires -- anything that might brighten up a dark winter!
Dressing
Create an outfit themed around glowing or lights of any kind! It doesn't have to be related to winter.
Random Apparel Challenge
I've put the changes for the day in colored text to try to make it clearer! Apparel swaps are back, and there's an additional optional challenge to match today's theme.
Transform this random outfit into something presentable!
You may remove up to 3 pieces of apparel.
You may change any 1 (one) random apparel for EITHERthe same item in a different color variationorany other item from the same apparel set.

For an additional optional challenge - add a glowing item!
DtB may be a Nature element, but we celebrate all the flights (and the beasclans) with several different ornament interpretations each year.

Ok everyone, here's the first challenge! Set of challenges? Hey look, there's stuff to do (even if the rest of the thread coding isn't all in yet, oops).
The rules have been updated to reflect that you are also earning DtB raffle tickets for this.
Here's the new section:
Participation also nets you tickets for our main DtB Raffle! 1 ticket per completed challenge per day (so up to 3 points) and a bonus 7 points for completing at least one of each day's tasks! These raffle tickets are not tied to the daily prizes in this thread and will be tallied at the end of the week - so you don't have to worry about the daily deadlines for these!
Anyway, here we go!
Small Friends
Scrying
Scry a dragon representing an animal we might call a 'small friend'! Take inspiration from the apparel list below, the DtB Ornament sets (try E, J, and N!), or your favorite animal that could reasonably fit on a sofa. But not moose. Moose are *bigger* than the sofa.
Dressing
Create an outfit featuring one of the animal companion apparel pieces!
Example apparel might include:
Ferret Friend
Apparel
A full friendship finds fantastic fellows forgathered.
500
Friend Budgies
Apparel
My best friends are my budgies. Just don't tell my other best friends.
500
Beagle
Apparel
The happy nature of this dog makes for a joyful hunting companion.
0
Mainecoon
Apparel
A lovable friend that will spend hours keeping your seat warm - what you wanted it back?
Random Apparel Challenge
Here's today's! We're starting off with the OG Classic, same rules as the original challenge!
Transform this random outfit into something presentable!
You may remove up to 3 pieces of apparel.
You may add as many apparel pieces as you'd like.
You can put the outfit on a scry, your own dragon, or leave it on a mannequin (doesn't have to be the one provided) - feel free to change up the breeds!
You may re-layer the apparel pieces as you see fit.
Remember - each challenge you complete within the next 26 hours gets you one ticket in the daily draw mini raffle! Based on the time of ping, this challenge will be due at 3:30 (AM) FRT on Monday, 11 December!
(And if you see me doing challenges myself, it's just for fun
- I don't qualify for the raffle of course!)
We made our entries for the day!

We took inspiration from the ferret friend! We felt he could easily translate onto an Auraboa, and we found we were right.

This time, we went with a fun corvid theme! We wanted to convey the idea of a stealthy assassin, perhaps assisted by her friend.

We decided to try and tie in all the green apparel and give off a fairy-esque vibe! Maybe be careful what name you give this one...

I had fun doing these! Firstly: does a butterfly count as a small friend? For the purpose of my entry, yes it does ^.^ I didn't use any particular butterfly as inspiration, just tried to keep their shape and colors in mind.

Next is my outfit! A protector for the butterflies (which coincidentally includes some of the random apparel as well).

And last but not least, here's the random apparel one! I actually like the chaos on the wings, so I tried to embrace that.

Barring some possible layering issues, I'm actually quite fond of these! Especially those first two.
