..what's thomas?

Oh boy, I get to chaotically stumble in trying to explain PNG dragon game meme history, bear with me.

So back in 2021, Flight Rising had a site event called Dustcarve Dig which eventually led to the reveal of a new modern dragon breed, the Obelisk (modern dragon releases are bigger events than ancient dragon releases which drop every 6 months or so but we don't have time for that ‐). In the meantime, a joke started that we would instead find humans, which led to this historic post/image

One mockup of a stock model in a suit led to an icon

Anyways, the joke popped off and eventually led to the main site forums, and before the irony could turn into actual sincere desire for humans to be added to the site, the mods had to make it clear

(I think this is also where the common use of Thomas Real started)

Lore-wise and site-wise, humans will never exist in Sornieth, with the closest things we'll get are the beastclans that have human characteristics (centaurs, maren, harpies, etc).

But we still live in hope

So it's become tradition at this point to say that every anniversary or site event, they'll finally drop Thomas and make him canon

Pretty sure I mucked up some info, so other FR users feel free to correct me or mention stuff I forgot

Anyways, Thomas 💖

funniest thing with flight rising is that they've had plans for the past decade to eventually turn it into some sort of video game that they've never shown dev work on or even really explained and basically every major plot thread on the website is intended to be resolved "when the video game is finished"

My Cirrus release day hatch! I love him <3

[ciphers-fr]

Interesting little things I noticed by staring at The Spreadsheet:

Genes that every single breed has are: Soil/Loam, Fade/Blend and Underbelly

Thorns are the only line-breaking tertiary that every single Ancient has

Auraboas are the only breed without Sparkle, Cirrus are the only ones that don't have Gecko or (somehow) Stained, and Everlux are the only Ancient without Blossom

When it comes to breed-exclusive genes, Cirrus obviously hold the crown at the moment, but Gaolers are actually in the second place with 2 exclusive gene pairs (Shaggy/Streak and Phantom/Spirit) and 5 tertiaries (Pinions, Scorpion, Shardflank, Weathered, Wintercoat). ngl that tert list just makes me think how great some of them would look on other breeds

On the other hand, Sandsurges only have 2 exclusive terts (Beard and Darts) and no prim/sec pairs

Aethers and Undertides have more genes than Modern breeds (141, 139 and 133 respectively)

Despite being relatively new, Everlux have more genes than Auraboas, Dusthides and Sandsurges (also Cirrus but that one's obvious). They're only 1 gene behind Banescales

Aberrations have exactly 38 of Primaries, Secondaries and Tertiaries each

Proportion-wise, Auraboas have the highest tertiary ratio: almost 40% of their genes are terts. For Moderns, that number is mere 26%.

(bear with me on this one) Aberrations are the closest Ancient to Moderns "genetically": only 22 of their genes out of 114 (~19%) aren't also met in Moderns. I'm mainly adding this because it's amusing if you consider the Aberration lore. Gran-gran might have two heads, but we're not that different after all...
