I wonder if it would be possible to update Baldwin's item selection to be like Sophie's because that one is a lot easier to use

Day 49 - Lilium Floron

Colloquially known as the 'Bramblepelt', this territorial species of floron is covered in a thick brown outer coat of thorns for the majority of the year. It sheds this coat in the spring.

HEY! LISTEN!

Last night, Engineering determined an hour long maintenance would be necessary before kicking off our April Fool's Event, and notified the community via Site Status at that time.

If you haven't checked Site Status yet, the maintenance begins at 06:00 server time, or in under half an hour from the time of this post. The Flight Rising website will be unavailable to players during this time. And no, this is not part of the site-wide event. We really do need a maintenance.

Our apologies for the short notice, and thank you for understanding!

bandwagon time. oops, you're a fr dragon now!

spin this wheel for your breed

spin this wheel 3 times for your colors (if you land on the space that says you're a double after already spinning once or twice for your colors, use the colors you already have as your x and y)

Bonus, try to scry your combo.

(I made a forum game of this post, if you want to play along there)

Here's what I got: pearlcatcher, brown/stonewash/tarnish

Chat is this anything?

Edit: There is now a pinglist for when I print this in the notes ♥

Tips for introducing more conflict into your Flight Rising lore (that aren't just "get a generic villain character")

Your dragons should be wrong sometimes. It doesn't have to be all the time, but they should misunderstand things, lie (intentionally or unintentionally), lash out when they're stressed, or just flatout dislike someone for no reason. Everybody will make bad decisions, and it's an easy way to introduce conflict without needing a specific antagonist character.

The world should be dangerous in some way. Think about your clan, and think about where your dragons would reasonably encounter some kind of danger. Is there a lot of crime in your clan? Is there a portion of your clan's territory that has a lot of hostile fauna? Is your clan currently clashing with another clan? Who knows, maybe the biggest danger is getting humiliated at the PTA bake sale, but try to think deeply on this. Once you know what places are dangerous, you can start thinking of how your clan deals with that danger.

A 100% approval rating government doesn't exist. The larger your clan, the more likely that there's dragons who disagree in some way, shape, or form with how the clan's being run. Maybe you've got an Anarcho-Capitalist Lightning clan with a small sect of Eco-Socialists that dislike the current rulers. Maybe you've got a tight-knit family unit but there's a dragon who doesn't agree with how chores are being divvied up. Maybe you've got a monarchy but, oops, you've got one dragon who REALLY disagrees with the concept of a monarchy!

Quick conflict is easy, prolonged plot is interesting. A conflict that can be resolved in 2 hours has a lot less narrative weight (typically) compared to a plot that takes 2 weeks to resolve. Err on the side of letting things fester and intensify if you want the juiciest conflict.

Your dragons should have wants just like anyone else, and those wants should conflict. A highly ambitious dragon joining a clan with well-established authorities is going to feel stifled by their inability to rise through the ranks. What happens when multiple dragons are courting the same dragon? What happens when multiple dragons want the same den location? Two dragons with deeply opposed desires can be the cornerstone of a lot of great lore.

Sometimes bad things happen for no reason. Natural disasters, plagues, sudden global conflicts (ex: Luminax), all of these things can be introduced quickly to churn up some conflict. Be careful to rely too heavily on this though, as it can erode away at your dragons narrative agency and make things feel grimdark (unless that's what you're going for)

Sometimes dragons are just jerks. People in real life are occasionally just mean, and there's no reason to say that your dragons can't just be a bit mean too. Schoolyard bullies, prissy Karens, workplace lunch-thieves, people who cut in line, etc. Don't be afraid to make some of your dragons just a bit mean, or annoying, or frustrating! In fact, I'd argue most dragons should have at least one trait that could potentially drive another dragon up the wall.
