Posted November 30, 2016 Thank you Odeen and SphinxLucida for such beautiful dragons. Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 I remember the Glacewings from the CL as well and I'm glad to see them released, they've got really beautiful colours. I still have to get used to the Fells, though. I do love their concept and I too would like to see more massive dragons like the Brutes, Colossi and Brimstones. My favourites from this release are definitely the Honey Drakes, they're beautiful =) Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 I'm just hoping that all of us who are talking about hoarding Fells aren't going to drive them into user-driven rarity. I want at least five more, myself, and I might want to hoard the s2 hatchlings. Also want to hoard the s1 Azures. So beautiful. They *may* have pushed Bleeding Moons off the top of my Most Beautiful Stage One Sprites list. Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 OMG I love the fell dragons. They remind me of the Kaiju in Pacific Rim. I love them so much. Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 AGGHHHH! I almost missed this drop!!! I have two of the blue ones, so will try and get two of the other two... Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 Eeee! I have s2 hatchies on my scroll! They are THE CUTEST! Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 (edited) Are they only dropping in the Forest Biome? I've seen this question before, but haven't seen an answer... Edited November 30, 2016 by Husky51 Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 Are they only dropping in the Forest Biome? I've seen this question before, but haven't seen an answer... Drake: This egg is covered in tiny golden scales. - Coast, Forest, Jungle blue one: This large egg has a lustrous sheen and appears to be covered in scales. - Forest grey one: This mottled egg looks positively ancient. - all biomes Since you ask Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 (edited) With the introduction of the new spriter, and the fact it came from the CL, I hope we will get a trend of new spriters in-cave. It had been do long since a new spriter came in, and I am just happy we have this new blood in-cave. Edited November 30, 2016 by Condorflight Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 (edited) I kept thinking the s2 Honey Drakes were adult pygmies the actual adults really wowed me. The details, the poses, the description, the fact they're Drakes... beautiful! But the Fells are definitely my favourites. Oh my gosh they're so amazing. Must. Hoard. Fells.

Posted November 30, 2016 All the Pacific Rim/kaiju fans seem to be drawn to the Fells as if by magnet... As soon as I saw the S2 hatchie I figured it reminded me of a certain favourite kaiju of mine from a certain favourite aforementioned film. Odeen, quit making me want to hoard all your dragons. Yep. As an egg an S1 hatchling, these were my least favorite. Now, they're my most favorite - and definitely ranking among my top 5 of all DC species. Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 Thank You, Sunrunner... I seem to have gotten all but one of the 'ancient' eggs, that will give me two to gender and incubate... Thank you again... Ask and ye shall receive... lol Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 Oh, they're beautiful! I especially like the Azure Glacewing and Honey Drake. Not a huge fan of the Fells, only because they look a lot more like dinos than dragons, but they're well done in their own right. Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 Oh, these are great! I've almost grabbed all of mine now. I haven't looked at the adult sprites yet since I like it to be a surprise when my own hatchlings grow up, but the "ancient" dragons are definitely my favorite so far. And the drakes - always good to see more of those in the cave! Honestly I like the blue scaled ones too... they're all good! Thank you spriters ^^ Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 I am so happy that we have a new in-cave Spriter! Congratulations SphinxLucida and everyone involved in creating this amazing sprite Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 I love all three new breeds. The Azure Glacewings are simply a beautiful dragon, and I especially like their shade of blue that is a bit warmer than (most of) the other blue dragons we have. The Fells are awesome, the art as well as the concept. I knew I was going to like them when I saw the word "ancient" in the description. ^^ The Honey drakes are a great addition to our growing number of Drake breeds. I like the unique tail design! Thank you spriters and TJ for giving us these lovely new dragons! Share this post Link to post
Posted November 30, 2016 Was a bit late to the party but thankfully I managed to catch up. Three new sprites before Christmas - TJ's spoiling us. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) The elbow joints on the wings of the Azure's are... bugging me, but otherwise I love the design of them! Such a pretty blue. Shame they don't have dimorhpism, but I suppose based on their info the differences are negligible. Edited December 1, 2016 by TheDarkLatias Share this post Link to post
Posted December 1, 2016 Been so busy irl that I feel bad for neglecting my Dragons on here and missing all these new releases! I think I managed to snag a few new breeds, thank's once again spriters and keep on spriting Share this post Link to post
Posted December 1, 2016 Just grabbed another batch! Three drakes, two Azures, and one Fell. I wanted more Fells, but accidentally clicked on extra drakes instead. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 1, 2016 With the introduction of the new spriter, and the fact it came from the CL, I hope we will get a trend of new spriters in-cave. It had been do long since a new spriter came in, and I am just happy we have this new blood in-cave. Given the quality of what the "old blood" produces, I wouldn't complain. These Fells give me life. Hot dang. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 1, 2016 (edited) - Fell Dragons have quite inauspicious beginnings: from a dense, nearly human-sized egg, a hatchling emerges weighing less than 10 kilograms. They are born hungry, however, and grow frighteningly quickly as they feed. Within weeks, a Fell hatchling will have outgrown its egg with no signs of slowing down. Once it reaches sexual maturity after a few short years, it weighs over 10 tonnes, and will continue to grow - if more slowly - as it ages. - In order to sustain its rampant growth, the Fell Dragon has adapted to consume just about everything: meat, plants, wood, even metal and stone. Its stomach acid is laced with death mana and perilously corrosive, capable of dissolving nearly anything it touches. - A Fell Dragon has 2 pairs of eyes: a forward-facing primary pair and a diminished, side-facing secondary pair which expands the creature's field of vision without the need for turning its head to look around. - Fell Dragons are believed to be a scourge upon the face of Valkemare, sowing destruction in their wake. The most ancient of their kind are called Calamities, a rare and terrifying sight to behold. Even in death these monsters are capable of rewriting the face of a landscape: once the acid within a Fell carcass eats through the decaying lining of its stomach, it spills out and carves a shallow basin around the carcass, scorching the earth of growing things. The acrid mire left behind is known as a fell pit, and naught but the hardiest and most unpalatable of vegetation will grow there for generations afterward. - The dense hide and armored carapace of a fell dragon are inherently resistant to the effects of magic. All but the most powerful spells are simply absorbed or deflected. Open wounds, of course, are suitable weak points, but pain tends merely to enrage the beasts. - Fell Dragons are not very bright, but if raised from the egg they can form lasting bonds with human caregivers. It goes without saying, however, that they make exceedingly poor pets. Trivia: - Fell Dragons are based off of aspects of several different Kaiju from Pacific Rim, namely Tresspasser, Mutavore, and Otachi. Their base physiology and behavior, however, are more inspired by the bear and rhinoceros - The adult sprites are lovingly nicknamed Charlie and Sandra - just because. - The Fell Dragon first came about in 2013, but I redid the sprites in 2015.

Posted December 1, 2016 Haha, nice to see all the PacRim fans were on to something with the Fells. xP I have to say, part of the reason I love the fell so much is because their concept is like exactly what I was picturing with my old Demolition Dragons (which is a terrible name; Fell is much cooler), and the art is much cooler than anything I was trying to describe. (And yes, I know these have nothing to do with my Demolitions!) I'm totally fine with the fact my Demolitions are gone (as much as I loved them and still appreciate the work that went into the art <3 ) because I have these wonderful dragons to drool over instead. =D (It's also kind of funny to see people say the Fell look too much like dinos when that was the issue with my Demolitions and these are way less dino-y. xP ) Share this post Link to post
