Posted September 20, 2015 (edited) The Stingray Lineage Project What is this? After browsing the Breeding forum for lineage projects, I realised that many of them were based on specific dragon breeds, or naming schemes. However, I have yet to see one that is based on the shape of the lineage. And that is exactly what we are going to do! The lineage will look like this. As you can see, the dragons in the lineage make up the stingray. It consists of a 4-generation spiral lineage and a 4-generation even gen. What It'll Look Like (Fun fact: At first I was planning to make it an octopus lineage, with 8 spirals and a very large even gen lineage. But I scrapped it because it'd be ridiculously hard to make.) Forms Joining the Stingray Lineage Project 'Okay, cool! I would like to join.' Great!

Woah, thanks! Use this code. [size=7][color=cornflowerblue][b]I made you a banner![/b][/color][/size] Forum Name: Banner: Code: Terminology A stingray is a completed lineage. The name of the stingray is the name of the leftmost dragon of the lineage. A stingray owner is pretty self explanatory. It's the person who owns the leftmost dragon in a stingray lineage. An aquarium is a collection of stingrays that one stingray owner has. For example, if I have 5 stingrays, then I have 5 stingrays in my aquarium. The sea is the collection of all the stingrays in this project! Rules 1. You are to follow the lineage shown here. 2. You can choose whatever dragons to use. You can make it a Purebred, or one that alternates between two breeds, or anything really! Make it your own stingray! 3. The parents of the leftmost dragon, as well as the dragon itself, need to have the word 'Stingray' in their names, but it's good if all the dragons in the lineage could follow the naming scheme. 4. You are not allowed to experiment on, kill, abandon or freeze your stingray. However, you may gift or trade them away. (More stingrays for everyone!) 5. You may not submit another stingray that you bred from the same ancestors as another stingray. In other words, all the stingrays must be completely unrelated to each other. So you can't take the same two parents and breed them ten times and say that you have ten stingrays. 5. As proof that you read the rules, state your favourite colour somewhere in your joining form! Anywhere. You can even write in between the words. This is so that if someone chooses to read other people's joining forms to know that they have to state their favourite colour, they'll get confused as to where to put it and they'll read the rules to find out! 6. All DC Forum rules apply. 7. Have fun! The Sea Purplenewt's Aquarium Newt's Finished Stingray - Click! Purplehaze's Aquarium Ojoghatran Stingray p8 - Click!

Posted September 20, 2015 Cool idea! One question though, is this rule negotiable? 3. All the dragons in the lineage must have the word 'Stingray' in them. Since the stingray's father is a "regular" even gen dragon, breeders could save time if they use an existing dragon for that part. Would they have to rename the ancestors to do that?

Since the stingray's father is a "regular" even gen dragon, breeders could save time if they use an existing dragon for that part. Would they have to rename the ancestors to do that? Hmm. That actually didn't really occur to me that people would take ready-bred dragons and use them for the lineage. In that case, I'll amend the rule to 'Only the parents of the dragons have to have the word 'Stingray' in them, but it is recommended for the whole lineage to have 'Stingray' in their names. I'd rather the person breed the lineage from scratch, but using ready-bred dragons is fine, just not encouraged. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 20, 2015 This seems like an interesting idea! It might take me a while to get started, though, as I have several other projects in the works atm. I would like to join! Forum Name: purplenewt Scroll Name: purplenewt green Share this post Link to post
Posted September 20, 2015 (edited) Sounds interesting. I've been wanting to start something different. I would like to join! Forum Name: purplehaze Scroll Name: purplehaze Purple I've been kind of wanting to do something with Gemshards, but the color uncertainty has held me back a bit. This might be fun to do with PB Gemshards, just to see how they fall. Edited September 20, 2015 by purplehaze Share this post Link to post

Posted September 24, 2015 Okay i have three ideas for my Stingrays: Purebred Frostbites Purebred Falconiform Wyverns Purebred Lunar Heralds and now i need to grab my crayons and thinking about the colours for the Stingray. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) I would like to join! Forum Name: PhantomoftheWolves Scroll Name: PhantomoftheWolves PINK the lineage pattern looks really original! hopefully more users will make it popular! I was thinking of either making a stingray using dragons from "The Fifth Element Lineage" or using dragons from one of my own projects....

Posted September 25, 2015 PhantomoftheWolves, you have been added! I was reading all of your Stingray plans. And I must say, I like them very much! I love the full of Gemshards idea! And I like the aquatic dragons one too. At first I was thinking of making that a rule, but that would have been too restricting. Different colours of Lunar Heralds sounds good. But if you're going to do it based on colour it's going to take a long time, because they depend on the moon cycles. I like the idea about the Fifth Element Lineage. That's really cool.

Posted October 3, 2015 I'm going for a blue and black theme. I've figured out the pattern. Tsunamis, Royal Blues and Blacks. That sounds very pretty! I bred my first Gemshard egg for my Stingray yesterday. I already had one 2nd gen PB on my scroll that I was thinking about using, but the parents aren't on my scroll and I decided I wanted all my Gems for this line to have Stingray in their name, so I won't use it after all. I have plenty of CBs of my own and I will just rename them as I breed them for the lineage. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 3, 2015 I'm doing Royal Blues x Nebulas... unfortunately I almost never find CB Nebulas, so not all of the dragons will be named Stingrays. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 5, 2015 I'm doing Royal Blues x Nebulas... unfortunately I almost never find CB Nebulas, so not all of the dragons will be named Stingrays. I love Royal Blues and Nebulas, they'll make really good combinations. Are you sticking to one kind of Nebula or different variants? And it's okay to not have the whole lineage follow the naming scheme, just the parents will do. Share this post Link to post
