Canonically, Eretz and Nahal arrived when Eizov, their mate, found them lost and stuck in the middle of a swamp. Since you asked for one, I’d say Nahal, who is less likely to ask for directions and would probably still be in a swamp if Eretz hadn’t dragged her out.

Ok but, hear me out. A dragon turning into a Bogsneak is technically just a mutant, right? There’s less magic and much more science than with a usual breed change, so, for example, if an Imperial becomes a Bogsneak, it’s still a mutated Imperial. Just imagine, many Imperials turning themselves into this new breed of dragons, but not losing their… special… ability.

And then, they die.

guardian charge ideas

-a pleasingly round, very smooth pebble -an endangered species. tHE WHOLE THING -concepts. I could go on and on. I love the idea of guardians protecting concepts and ideas. Also philosophies, techniques, music- anything that can be taught. Guardians have to spread that knowledge to protect it from falling into obscurity. -a very short-lived animal or anything else very very impermanent. Does the guardian take another charge when the animal passes on or is it like “whelp I served my charge time my life is my own now” or do they spend the rest of their life mourning this ephemeral thing. -A star. Very concerning for guardians who do not actually understand astronomy. also like there’s nothing they can do to protect it so they just stare intently at it a lot when its visible.  -PATENT LAWYER GUARDIAN WILL PROTECT ALL PATENTS. On a more serious note though this kinda goes along with concept guardians if they’re protecting artist integrity and going after counterfeiters  -now my narratives don’t really have anything much to do with the sacredness of virginity cause I don’t buy it, but can you just imagine how obnoxious a guardian protecting a specific person’s “”””””””chastity””””””””” would be. like imagine someone comes along like “my life is dedicated to making sure you don’t get any.”

New Color Wheel Breeding Dates

If you want a nest to hatch the day of the new color release, June 8th, the latest you can put a pair on a nest is June 3rd.

If you want a Plentiful breed (fae, guardians, mirrors, tundras) to be ready to breed on the 3rd, the last day you can put them on a nest or have them be born is May 19th.

The last day for Common breeds (pearlcatchers, ridgebacks, snappers, spirals) is May 14th.

The last day for Uncommon breeds (skydancers) is May 9th.

The last day for Limited breeds (imperials, nocturnes) is May 4th.

The last day for Rare breeds (coatls, wildclaws) is April 29th.

If you nest or hatch a dragon after the dates above, it will not be off its breeding cooldown by June 3rd.

[clanperseverance]

So let’s talk about the idea of bottleneck-bred dragons aka genB.

Start with 32 (25) unrelated, unbred dragons. Pair them off and breed each pair once. Pick one offspring from each nest, exalt the parents and any surplus kids (this step is important!) and then pair off the 16 (24) dragons. Breed, choose one offspring from each nest, exalt everything else, and so on.

Key step: exalting siblings to prevent breeding, exalting parents after their first and only nest to prevent additional breeding.

Eventually you’ll breed the last 2 dragons. All the kids in the resulting nest are 5+ generations removed from all other non-exalted dragons on the site. These genB dragons can breed with any other dragon on the site.

So what?
