[familiarmatchmaking]

Fowl or flower? Your dragons will have to be discerning if they want to acquire these new familiars. They can be obtained from Hunting (level 10+).

i wasn’t gonna do any formal inktober challenge, but i did have a bunch of new dragons i wanted to finalise looks for so.

@fujorising‘s coatl girl androktasia just for kicks

yolmir, a nonbinary forest spirit (their horn is two pronged but a single base bc i wanted a horn that didn’t really conform to either of the gendered bases so)

and ellander, yolmir’s brother, aresh’s boyfriend, ocean monster and sinker of ships. wanted his spines to be big broad things like shark fins

Wildlife of the Windswept Plateau

Hey I've decided to make this a series. Next on my list of "researcher documents the Flights native wildlife" we have the Wind Flight! I hope this is at least a good jumping off point for you writers/RPers/Worldbuilders!

Includes little personal notes here and there about possible uses, ecology and real-life equivalents, and interesting notes from the items bio too. Calling this series “Ecology of Sornieth” where I detail: Wildlife.  Aquatic life. Insects. Plant life. ???.

Long post ahead. Cut for convenience.

Wild Life:

Balsas Anole (Able to change color based on mood. probably a popular catch for hatchlings) Plague Bat (Bats native to the Scarred Wasteland. Most likely purged for spreading diseases.) Sun Flecked Fieldmouse (Fur sparkles in the sunlight. can leap great distances and has a tendency to brood.) Zephyr Sparrow (Flies very high but is prone to oxygen deprivation. Tend to be short lived due to this reason. Possibly kept by dragons for it's plumage) Broad-footed Moles (Stubborn. strangely tend to dig in opposite directions from their mates. Possibly dug up as food by hatchlings) Cottontail Rabbit (A decent meal for dragons, probably farmed for meat and fur. hilariously large dragons might use them similarly to cottonballs.) Hooded Hen (Can be ornery maybe? A decent meal for a dragon. Probably farmed for meat and feathers.) Steppes Box Turtle (Known for the pattern on it's shell) Hooded Skunk (despite being a skunk its rather docile. Probably hunted for as wild game for meat and fur) False-Peacock Quail (Pretty plumage. A decent meal for a dragon. Probably hunted as wild game for meat and feathers) Mallard (A decent meal for a dragon. Probably hunted as wild game for meat and feathers. Note: Irl only male Mallards have the signature green hood.) Golden-Laced Rooster (Can reached running speeds of up to 15km an hour. Probably hunted as wild game.) Arroyo Toad (Most dragons have developed an immunity to it's skin toxin. Mirrors however are allergic.) Firebearer (A type of squirrel monkey. Has been observed spreading forest fires by carrying burning branches to new areas. Possibly done to flush out game from underbrush or usher in new growth in remote areas. Possibly a Keystone species?) Fancy Rat (Possibly kept as pets. Might even be given as gifts(for pets or to eat) during special occasions) Wallaby (Probably hunted as wild game. A decent meal for a dragon.) Pangolin (Noted for keeping lairs insect free! Might be kept around as a form of pest control. although maybe not by insectivorous dominated clans.) White-Eared Hummingbird (Yes birds do have ears!) Olive Sea Snake (VENOMOUS. Aposematic. Bright blue and orange coloration warns of it's toxicity. Named not for it's color by for it's curious love of olives. Note: Irl all species of sea snake are venomous. they are close cousins to cobras and kraits.) Grey Squirrel (Probably a common meat in stews and campfire roasts) Tree Gecko (Has great camouflage but oddly is color blind.) Magpie (Hunted for both their meat and hoards of shinies) Ferret (Probably kept as popular pets/small game hunting companions.) Sugarglider (A prime pest of Sugarmelon crops.

Probably not safe to eat due to the "venom pockets" throughout it's body) Silver Racoon (Named for it's love of silver ore and trinkets. Might be hunted as wild game.) Lesser Land Iguana (apparently very self confident. I take that to mean they are aware of how dangerous they are and probably have few predators. Probably hunted if there are no other options though.

Might be farmed similarly to Valentines roses and sold for holidays and anniversaries.) Black Swan (Probably kept as ornamental birds by the upperclass. Compete in elegant displays with each other. Probably over mating rights.) Juvenile Prairie Skink (The adults of this species perform excellent parental care for lizards when the hatchlings are young. (Note: Maternal care in irl skinks is highly unlikely. Note 2: Art possibly depicts a jeweled lacerta instead?)) Muskrat (A native to the Gladevines of the Viridian labryinth this rodent is commonly found in aqueducts hunting small aquatic life. Probably hunted as wild game or farmed for meat and water resistant fur.) Reedhopper (Amphibian. well camouflaged though makes a loud incessant croaking. Probably a common sound at night near fresh waterways like ponds and rivers.) Collard Lemmings (Has local folk stories that tell of them staring into your soul and knowing all your secrets.)

Kept as familiars) Cloud Chaser (Airborne cetaceans that fly through the air, possibly in massive beautiful pods. produces clicks and whistles.

“Alright, let’s try something easier. Like something with feathers.” why am I like this

Anyway here’s a Lilyfowl...kinda. I couldn’t figure out how to make lilies, and Spore’s coloring, well, could use some improvement. So it’s a Lilyfowl except it has flowers instead :’B A domesticated breed or something, idk. Still had fun though.

The Foods of Mistral Jamboree

I recently joined wind flight, and I’m trying to get in the spirit of Noodledad! This post is heavily inspired by @lionsongfr​’s Trickmurk Circus food headcanon posts!

Food

Windbeutel or “Wind Bags”: Light, flaky puff pastry swirled into little mountains and filled with whipped or pastry cream. Airy and sweet, these are great little snacks to munch on while picnicking on the sloped hills of the Windswept Plateau. 

Roaming Garden Salad: Flowers humanely clipped from the backs of overgrown Travelling Garden Tortoises are tossed with fresh greens, quinoa, and pomegranate arils to create a sweet, juicy salad that is a favorite of Tundras and other veggie eating dragons.

Cloudsong Ceviche: Great lengths of filament weighted down with bells, feathers, and carved wooden ornaments are hung over the sides of the Cloudsong and dragged through the waters below. Whatever is pulled up is chopped and marinaded in citrus juice and tossed with fresh veggies and herbs to create a refreshing and more classy dish for the Jamboree. 

“Windsinger’s Wings”: Wind Flight natives love to jokingly tell unknowing outsiders that the Windsinger actually DOES have wings! They’re just so small, it’s hard to see them! They then hold up a piece of Grilled Lilyfowl wing for a size comparison and watch the look of confusion spread across the other dragon’s face. 

Wok-Fried Beetles: For more adventurous eaters, Mistral Beetles are coated with chili, garlic, and ginger powder and fried in rich oil until crispy. For the less adventurous dragons, edamame and chestnuts are used instead. Energetic and air-headed Spiral vendors have a tendency to accidentally mix the two types, much to the dismay of bug hating dragons everywhere. 

Bamboo-Shoot Biryani: Rice, meat, and tons of spices are stuffed inside of bamboo shoots and steam cooked in a hot rock oven. Throughout the entire Windswept Plateau plumes of steam rise up from the ground, causing lack of visibility.. but my goodness, it smells great!

Windsinger-Jumps-Over-the-Reeds Hotpot: The story behind the name is that the meal smells so good that even Windsinger would stop roaming – and jump over the reeds – in order to eat it. This dish can range from mild to super spicy, which might have you hopping over the reeds in search of water!

Papa’s Eggs: Boiled quail eggs with brightly colored shells! The pigments for the swirls and patterns are made with crushed berries and painted on with deft claws from skilled craftsmen from all across wind territory. Some dragons try to preserve these little works of art, but find themselves dismayed when they inevitably deteriorate. As the craftsmen say, these should be here one day and then gone with the wind! 

Stinging Spirals: Tentacles from electric stinger jellyfish are tossed with rice noodles, sesame oil, and herbs to create a delicious cold salad... provided you can get over the sting! This food leaves a trail of swollen faces, but it’s still considered a staple of any Wind Flight celebrations!

Onion Compass: A deep fried blooming onion, coated in garlic, ginger, and paprika. They say that when it is served to you, the longest petal points in the direction of something you should pursue!

Ganja Gummies: Adds a whole bunch to the quantity of other food consumed by dragons attending the Jamboree! Great for the pocketbooks of food vendors, terrible for the pocketbooks of festival goers.  

Drinks

Sweet Grass Smoothie: A deliciously sweet smoothie with tons of healthy benefits! It’s cooling and refreshing, making it excellent when drank after some spicy festival food.

Cloud and Mist Tea: Minty jadevine and matcha are steeped in crystal clear water gathered from the mists from the waterfalls between the sheer cliffs at the bottom of the Reedcleft Ascent. They say that this tea has mystical properties, helping to clear a multitude of illnesses. Doctors don’t necessarily agree, but they too find it delicious regardless!

Lemon Chuhai: Super refreshing, but also incredibly intoxicating. It’s hard to stop at just one glass! Maybe just a little bit more... a little more... just a sip more...

Duneberry Sparkler: Extremely fizzy, and delightfully sweet. It’s so carbonated, that it continues to fizz and pop long after it’s already in your tummy! Just be careful if a storm is in the forecast; you might find a storm starting to brew inside you too.

Caliper Coffee: Said to be the reason that the Windsinger can travel endlessly across the globe without stopping! You won’t be able to stop after drinking this either!

Don’t forget to click here for a chance to win an unhatched wind egg on the last day of Mistral Jamboree!

lilyfowl // 670915

This fascinating fowl can actually breathe through the plant-like growths along its head and back, which is helpful considering it spends most of its time partially submerged.

Chapter 1: Beginning Travels

The inside of the egg was dark, enclosed, she felt as if she had just woken up for the first time. All she knew was that she didn’t want to stay in the egg anymore. The little fae dragon had struggled, attempting to stretch against the hard, almost wooden, shell. She found a bit of reserved strength, however, and gave one large push with her front claws. The egg splintered open, and she tumbled out.

No parents greeted her, no siblings hatched alongside her, there was no other dragon around. There was, however, nature. Thousands of small green clovers, dozens of pink lilies, and several large trees surrounded her. The little fae hardly felt overwhelmed, in fact, she felt perfectly at home in this overgrown clearing.

She stood, and started waddling around, her wings still damp from hatching. The trees were too thick to pass through, but there was a clear, little stream, and plenty of insects around. She guessed this was just her home, and she looked at her warped reflection in the slow stream. All she saw was green, various shades of green, even in her eyes.

Once she learned the name of this wonderful, beautiful color, she decided to name herself after it. Emerald wouldn’t choose to call herself Green, however, after finding out about the green gem. She wouldn’t learn her name for a while, as she was stuck in the little clearing until she could fly.

She lived in that clearing, all by herself, for nearly a year. Each day she would flap her wings, and stretch them, and eat plenty of bugs. Emerald knew nothing of the world outside that clearing, aside from the occasional lilyfowl flying overhead, or the buttercup strangler passing through. Finally, the day came where she found herself able to fly high enough.

She could barely carry herself over the branches of the looming trees, but it was enough. She was free. Emerald gave one last longing look at the little clearing she knew her entire life, and she flew off. If she had looked beneath her, she would’ve noticed several other nurseries, each containing an egg or dragon like her.

Emerald was an inquisitive little thing, and she felt a connection to her breed’s homeland, she didn’t know it at the time, however. She just knew she had to travel, until she found this place, just to see what it was like. The first challenge, however, was to fly through Dragonhome. It was within a small mining town there that she found her namesake.

Emerald had landed in the town, called Rovite, on her third day of travel. She had become weak and exhausted, hardly resting or eating. She didn’t know hunger, or exhaustion, until she left her nest. Lucky for her, however, that another nature dragon was in town. Spirit was as old as Emerald, but he had grown faster, stronger, as was the way of the mirror breed.

He was pale, with deep green wings, darker than any of the greens Emerald showed, and his four eyes seemed cold and harsh, despite being the same green hers were. Spirit looked down warily at this weakened creature. He was only in town to rest, before visiting his own breed’s homeland in the Scarred Wasteland.

Emerald stirred, and seeing another dragon, tried to get up so she could greet them, having learned a little of the  common language already. She collapsed once more, however, and Spirit was tempted to just leave the wretched little thing, but something kept him from doing so. He picked up the small dragon in his mouth, pulling her first onto his wing, then his back.

He took her to a shallow cave clawed into the side of a very large boulder, where he was staying for the night. Spirit cringed as he dug up some Nymphs to feed Emerald with. The little thing perked up after having something to eat, and she gratefully accepted his offer of water when he nudged the wooden bowl closer to her. Spirit decided she was well enough to understand him, “Who are you? Why are you all the way out here?”

She just tilted her head, not fully sure how to reply. It was at that moment she noticed a bright green gem amongst Spirit’s belongings. “That. Rock like me. It’s name?”

“Ah, that’s an emerald. You don’t know the language well, but you definitely aren’t a coatl. You must’ve come from an abandoned egg.”

“Emerald. My name now. I don’t know words well. Be patient.” She talked in the same, monotone voice expected from all faes.

Spirit nodded, “Well then, Emerald. You’re a very small thing, very fragile-looking, and I would hate to see harm come to you now that I’ve invested my own time and energy to helping you. Would you like to join me on my journey?”

Her facial crests flared, a sign of happiness, or maybe aggression, possibly both as far as Spirit was concerned, “Yes, but, we go two ways.”

“That’s right, you’re from Starfall Isles. Well, we could go there before we head to the Scarred Wasteland.”

“Starfall Isles?”

“Yes, your breed, faes, originated from there, from the Arcanist. Those like us, born from long-forgotten eggs, wish to travel to their breed’s homeland, even if for a bit. Something to do with realizing the connections we can’t have to the place because we have no family.”

“No.. Family?” The crests drooped, Emerald had thought if she went to this unknown place she was drawn to, she would find a family.

“That’s the way the leaves fall, sadly. Dragons like us just have to make our own families, or do without. Now, get some sleep, we should leave tomorrow and get out of Dragonhome.”

Emerald begrudgingly did as she was told, and fell asleep on the only blanket that Spirit owned. He was confused by this small creature, and how she could be so sheltered. Did no dragon ever stop by her nest? Even abandoned eggs the Gladekeeper took in to make original bloodlines from were visited occasionally by older dragons.

He decided not to dwell on it, as he was tired as well. Spirit curled around the smaller dragon to keep her sheltered, and laid his head next to hers. Normally dragons wouldn’t get this cozy, but she had stolen the only blanket and they were in a small crevice with little room. He soon fell asleep, a bit worried about what would happen with his new companion.
