Posted September 6, 2015 LadyLyz never explicitly said anywhere they were called "Indigos", only that her favourite colour was indigo. I think it may be in reference to her avatar Herald which is a slightly darker blue than the actual blue Herald? Ahh, I see the "blues" are dropping now. I managed to snag a few. Full! Indigo is my favorite color, hence why I made my "alts" that way. I will be watching for Bronzes to grow up in order to release the next avatar to you all. However, if they grow up overnight I'll do it first thing in the morning. LONG day. Lyz needs sleeeeeeeeeeeep. As I hinted at before, these were originally submitted as Prize dragons at the same time as the Shimmers. Unsurprisingly, Gold = 1st, Silver = 2nd, Bronze = 3rd. The blue color was meant to be my alt. They were called Prismatic Heralds at the time and were linked to the sun instead. The moon phases came after Shimmers were chosen for the new Prize breed. The "good fortune" bit is also a reference to their Prize origin - the original description said that owning a wild-caught one was considered to be the epitome of good luck. From this I think the current "blues" that we're getting are actually indigos. Otherwise there wouldn't be a plural and again, she said that "the blue color was meant to be my alt" and "indigo is my favorite color" so yeah, they're prob called indigos.

Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) omg a release i'm actually HERE for. D: Also so few people! o.o Is there some murican holiday I'm missing, or only because it's Saturday evening? (still surprising, tho!) Actually . . . . Yes! It's Labor Day Weekend. I've gotten 3 blues and now I can't wait for the Silvers. Edited September 6, 2015 by topaz08 Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) Misclicked, now I have to wait another few hours before I can nab another blue. I only had 2 slots, why fingers why ;_; Since the Indigos have decided to drop already, I'm going to gift away my extra Bronze egg, I'll be satisfied with 2 pairs.

Posted September 6, 2015 I have been waiting for these!!! They're my favorites of this batch for sure. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) I'm confused now or maybe I'm missing something... until now, haven't the moons changes their phases simultaneously? And now the blue moon has changed but the golden one not, still being waning crescent? Edited September 6, 2015 by Varnayrah Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2015 The page had glitched - both were showing the phase of one of them. But TJ fixed it and made a post which listed what it had been meant to show. Share this post Link to post

"Probably" being the keyword I just said what I did because people were telling each other that that was their official title. p.s. None of her quotes have a plural?

Posted September 6, 2015 I don't think they even have an "official" name, and the reason why we started calling the bronzes one bronzes (instead of browns) was because they were previously going to be potential prize dragons. And I'm pretty sure we're calling them indigos just because LadyLyzar mentioned them as that~ :3 Share this post Link to post

And I'm pretty sure we're calling them indigos just because LadyLyzar mentioned them as that~ :3 Yes but she's referred to them as Bronzes/Bronze already. She's never referred to the blue ones as indigo. In fact, she referred to them as blues in the only post she mentioned the word indigo ^__^ (And I know there's no official name, call them as you will or as LadyLyz tells us to- it just irks me that people are going around saying it's their name) Edited September 6, 2015 by bluesonic1 Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2015 So pretty, and dang, even with my heinously slow connection these were easy to nab. Thanks for the flood of these shinies! Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2015 She put blue in quotation marks, though, implying that they aren't actually officially called blues. Share this post Link to post

Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) ^ Quotation marks Yeah, and she doesn't say "These dragons are called indigos". People are going around telling each other that that's what these dragons are called when it's just a nickname people came up... Edited September 6, 2015 by bluesonic1 Share this post Link to post

CIRION: WAXING CRESCENT TO WAXING GIBBOUS! WE'VE GOT BLUES AKA INDIGOS!! HAPPY HUNTING! --- I will be calling them "indigos" from now on. And I love that the blue Lunars are called indigo, which is my actual NAME. Do I need ANY MORE reason to love this release? OMFG YAYZ To be completely honest, I was replying to Sapphira Majoram who made the above statement, then everyone piled on after that ^__^ I realise the majority of people are using it as a nickname, but I'd like to stop the train when it comes to assumptions (like I did with the Golds breeding Blues vs Bronzes breeding Blues- we're yet to see Bronzes give Blues and while it's highly likely, let's not assume anything).

Ahh, okay haha. I honestly think it'll turn out to be one of those personal preference things, and we'll never get actual "official" names. Or even if LadyLyzar comes along and tells us what they're truly called, there will still be people who refer to them as "blues" or "indigos" despite whatever she tells us. (Kinda like how some people refer to Xenowyrms as "manas"). Edited September 6, 2015 by xxBurningxx Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2015 I checked the Wikipedia entry for Indigo on a whim and discovered its position is a controversial subject, which makes this discussion honestly a little amusing to me. Share this post Link to post

But yeah I think it will come down to personal preference- I only still call them blues because it's shorter than having to type out indigo, which is essentially a type of blue anyway I checked the Wikipedia entry for Indigo on a whim and discovered its position is a controversial subject, which makes this discussion honestly a little amusing to me.

Personally I'll probably call them indigos just because I think the word itself is kinda fun~ :3 And yeah I just got finished skimming through the wiki page for indigo as well.

Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) I wake up in the morning and what do I see? Brand new shiny Heralds, sweet! Won't be able to catch them for a while (hopelessly egglocked), but I'll eagerly anticipate the hunt. <3 Edited September 6, 2015 by stagazer_7 Share this post Link to post
Posted September 6, 2015 We really need a BSA like incubate for hatchlings- the wait for my Bronzes to grow up is killing me! I want to try breeding them, but also I want more space for the Blues Share this post Link to post
