Posted March 30, 2014 (edited) Countess Fuchsia has properly and politely bitten her designated victim. I'll try and throw the egg Silverswift's way first. One Third Generation Montague Egg Received. March really must be the Montague's month cus if this egg survives, they will have captured some 'new territory' for themselves, won't they.

Posted March 30, 2014 I've got two new pending Montague descriptions on my scroll: Countess Demonne: Countess Demonne takes her name not from demons of lore as some might suspect, but from her debating skill and her habit of ending a soft-spoken but lengthy exposition with the words 'quod erat demonstrandum'. Quick-witted, silver-tongued and often underestimated in a social context, Demonne's primary shortfall is her regrettably obvious physical inferiority relative to the average vampire. This fact has left her with no rank of note within her clan, though this has not chipped at her pride. Her sire, Count Leroy, keeps her integrated amongst the Montagues and grants her the occasional intellectual task, having learnt to deal with her excessive nitpicking out of appreciation for her thorough execution. Countess Fuchsia: Countess Fuchsia is a proud second-generation Montague vampire, enjoying a high status within the family as the fourth childe of the Countess Montague. She runs her own branch of the family as a loose matriarchy. Despite a predominant taste in woman, she's taken long-term interest in Count Daedalus, enjoying his outward diplomatic manner... and of course his 'equal' status in the family, making him a valuable asset to her. She takes interest in racing events, keeping a 'stable' of cruelly tamed hellhorses deliberately stunted in their intellectual growth for her personal pleasure, their aggression channelled into rule-free, brutal races against each other. These don't always proceed in a strictly linear fashion and often end with wounds or even casualties to deal with after the fact. It's her way to disassociate with her lineage, being initially born of hellhorse parents herself, now viciously denouncing their kind as mere animals. Share this post Link to post
Posted March 31, 2014 Well, my Montague egg has sucessfully hatched. Now for it to grow up. Share this post Link to post
Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) I'm still slacking on updating the rest of the information, but I went ahead and updated the lineage charts in the home post. As per usual, it is VERY possible I made mistakes, so let me know if you spot any and I'll correct it right away! A few highlights: -Marquis Capulet's lineage is a sideways L for lost! hahah -Countess Seraphina's line has a nice gender swapping thing goin' on! -Montagues are winning badly in terms of sheer numbers, but Capulets have the longest unbroken lineage. -Marquis Dire has a quite extensive lost lineage and the names are pretty hilarious (starting with "Glitterbell Sparklystar"). The last one raises a question - this is the first lost dragon that's started biting. Should I include the vamps Glitterbell sires in the lineage under lost? In theory, any of them could join with a name change! What do you guys think? Edited April 1, 2014 by Count Share this post Link to post
Posted March 31, 2014 I think the images are too large. Smaller would be better. Maybe even just shrinking the original sprites down to a third their normal size. As for including lost lines... perhaps just keep the black image until one occurs with the correct name. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) I think the images are too large. Smaller would be better. Maybe even just shrinking the original sprites down to a third their normal size. ...and suddenly, I had a mental image of something like , even though that's completely not what you said. (Edit: And then I couldn't resist and hacked together some really bad mini chibi vampire sprites just because no one stopped me: / ) I do like the idea of keeping track of lost lines, but I suspect that's a lot of work. @_@ Edited April 1, 2014 by pinkgothic Share this post Link to post

Posted April 2, 2014 I love seeing the updated lineages. Count, I will say that I noticed there are two dragons missing after Marquis Mercurial. Marchioness Malum and her bebe, Marchioness Elyssai. Also I will have two more Capulets ready to bite over the next week-ish. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 3, 2014 Marquis Verapae's Description Marquis Verapae is a descendant of Capulet. He finds joy in hunting down vampires of the Montague clan, and making sure their numbers stay low. He is powerful and wants nothing to do with the brats of his rival clan. Marquis Verapae believes that the prissy snobs are over due, and that the Capulet Clan is the strongest and the best. He makes sure that every egg that is bitten by him follow his cause and his clan's goal. Although... All of the eggs he has bitten has been killed. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) Marquis Bahranthux has come to his adulthood. His description worries me, it might not get approved. Well I have scratched my head hard and digged to the bottom of my brain's "English Corner" to write something for him. > < A designed destiny, time circles itself. A monument of memories, life lies still. The figure in the reflection, no difference with the others. It stepped into the river, twice the same place. And Marchioness Jhavoskarr's is still waiting for approval. A production of injustice it is, yet it sought equality. Neither power nor pleasure satisfied its needs, yet an unevenness existed between the philosophical mind and the substance. And the searching and inquiring surrendered to instincts, till desire itself became the pursuit, meanings turned to vain, the reasons of the pursuit itself were forgotten, the consciousness lost itself, life became unlife.

Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) Got a description Pending for my Montague. Clever in the extreme, refined, silver-tongued, and able to bend the minds of others to her will; Countess Mina is a true Montague lady. As the first pure childe of Countess Fuschia, Mina has a fair amount of influence among Montagues and has been tasked with keeping her own 'siblings'in line. Like them, she was taught to hate Capulets and to pay proper respect to all her elders, not just her 'sire'; that said, she has more respect for Daedalus than her 'Uncle' Secundus who she thinks acts rather like a cursed Capulet at times. This is a thing she must NEVER say to his face as Lady Fuschia reminds her often. Besides, as a chess player in her free time, she has cunning as well as methods of her own. Simply keep Capulets from the best territories, such as the land of the JavaTiger, and violence isn't necessary. It wasn't hard to persuade the dragons of the clan, wild vampires and all, that accepting her presence and protections was the lesser of two evils if compared to Capulet raids. ALSO! Newsflash... Countess Mina of Montague properly bit her first designated victim! Click Here to see! Anyone want to adopt it? Edited April 3, 2014 by Silverswift Share this post Link to post
Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) Click Here to see! Anyone want to adopt it? *...raises greedy Montague hand* But, no, seriously, other people should go first. I'm a happy fallback home for it, though! Edited April 3, 2014 by pinkgothic Share this post Link to post
Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) *...raises greedy Montague hand* But, no, seriously, other people should go first. I'm a happy fallback home for it, though! LOLS! You, ma'am, are a Montague hoarder. I am quite certain that no Capulet would dare go near your scroll. All your vampires would attack them in a second. Ah, but I am just kidding of course. I meant no offense. Seriously, though, if no one else wants the little one, you may certainly have it. Edited April 4, 2014 by Silverswift Share this post Link to post
Posted April 4, 2014 I would dare! C'mon pink, my Capulets could take you! Also, Marquis Mercurial turned another vampie. This one will stay on my scroll though because I accidentally bit the wrong dragon.... But it does mean I have two more chances to turn new Capulets in about 10 days. Share this post Link to post
