Well, if the moss stole some of the warmth from the egg, maybe the egg would just require more views to hatch? You'd just need to heat it up a bit more, that's all.

This is a very interesting idea! Some kinks would need to be worked out, but it would certainly be a creative way of fixing the blocking problem. ^^

Yeah, maybe it could add more time to the egg. I mean, who doesn't get stressed at waiting for eggs to hatch? No wonder reds are so rare.

Since the legs, tails, backs and necks of the in-cave dragons are in many different places how are you going to make overlays for legs, tails, etc? You'd have to make a specific overlay for each breed of dragon. You would need to get artist permissions for that.

What's wrong with the idea of just adding a line of text for mossy adults?

The thing is, when people hear "Mossy Dragon" being said, they more than likely expect to see something on the dragon. Hence why I'm suggesting such ideas.

Although you are right in that a simple line of text would solve everything, and for the record I also support that.

OK..here's an idea: What if we just created an image that laid over top of a dragon...kind of like what we were doing with the eggs a few pages back?

We wouldn't have to ask the people who drew our dragons to re-draw them to accommodate for the moss, and we could create moss for different spots, like leg moss, tail moss, back moss and neck moss, and certain types of moss - as well as a certain amount - would appear on certain species (the volcano dragons would be the tricky ones, though).

It probably wouldn't be smart to have moss on the head or wings. We still want our guys to fly, right?

I like that idea.

Why would you need artist permission to just create an overlay for that dragon?

Because you are altering the appearance of that dragon. You'd have to create an overlay for each dragon breed, which is directly using their sprites. Even though you wouldn't be altering the actual sprite image, it's still based off their work. Hence, you'd need permission.

Many people also wouldn't WANT moss on their dragons.

And just as many would.

I think that the dragon would eventually get frustrated at the moss, and wipe it off, y'know? Plus, this is a thread for EGGS. Not editing adult sprites.
