2016-08-21 - August Release

Recommended Posts

Thanks to birdz, Pie Master, Corteo and Tikigurl for a very exciting release.

I'm patting my own back: I guessed that the Aeons were going to have a BSA and my first batch included only them. So I'm thrilled, should have 7 adult Aeons quite soon.

I just got an adult, and what do you know--Aeons do indeed have a BSA! It's called Precognition, and reveals the gender of an egg or S1 hatchling!

After use, the sprites also change slightly to have glowing cyan markings.

How exciting! Thanks, birdz <3

Uh oh. Grabbing more of them might prove difficult. But I'll be able to breed the ones I have smile.gif

Has anyone else noticed that there's a typo in the Aeon's description?

 

It's about midway through the description; here: When utilizing paritcularly strong magic

Yeah I think it's been reported.

 

 

Awesomeeee, thanks so much for this BSA! I think I like them that much more. Although I like your art for them more than the sprites, their poses just don't do it for me x) I do like the transparent wing though, and gosh that description I can't get over!

Thanks TJ and spriters!

Has anybody checked if the other new release dragons have BSA's too? I am aware that one dragon with BSA is enough for this release, but who knows? tongue.gif

Well I'm guessing these'll be made 'rares' due to user demand, right? After I get my CB pairs, I'll just have bred ones stock up for the bsa x)

Ooohh purty concept art birdz!! I love that they have a BSA, although honestly I probably won't use it much. My hatchies grow up in 2 hours but I'm going to bed soon, so I'll see my adults in the morning!

Wow, look at those adults! ohmy.gif

 

These guys look absolutely spectacular! <3 (Going to be busy trying to hoard all these new dragons now. rolleyes.gif )

 

Seriously, very well done.

 

However, I have a question for the new BSA: What would happen if you used it on an egg, received the gender, then influenced it using a pink? Would it then be influenced? Or would the prediction cancel out any attempts to change the gender?

 

(Sorry if this has already been asked!)

 

Edit: I also just realized this will allow people to know the gender way before the egg hatches, which means quicker trading if the egg is already the desired gender. 030 (and as long as trading doesn't cancel out the foreseen gender.)

Wow! Thank you birdzgoboom! Seems we've got some BSAs recently. tongue.gif

 

And has anyone tried to breed the dark luminas? Is the egg a light one or still dark one? I want to know more about their breeding!

I hope it will work like this. The foreseen gender would be the natural course of things and with influence you can change it. Otherwise the BSA wouldn't be very useful to me... But let's see!

Would also like to know how it works. Absolutely amazing concept though, I am in love with that beautiful blue glow!

I love the Aeon's BSA! I wonder if Influence will still work after it biggrin.gif

 

How long is the BSA cooldown?

 

And awesome art there, birdz! Love how they glow like that, and it's super awesome that they glow after the BSA. How long do they stay like that after it's used?

 

Anyway, gotta hoard those :3

As I believe Pie said earlier, Precognition can be used multiple times on the same Egg/S1 Hatchling.

Therefore you could still use Precognition on an egg, find out its gender (say male for instance), and influence it to be female. You could then use Precognition on it again and find out the result of the Influence.

Precognition would not cancel out an Influence made on an Egg or S1 hatchling, or make you unable to use Influence on an egg.

 

If anything, Precognition was made to go sort of hand-in-hand with Influence, or to test to make sure an Influence is entirely necessary (and maybe even help swap trades of eggs or hatchlings go faster). It would stink if Precognition cancelled Influence out, haha.

 

 

Natakiro: The BSA's cooldown is 7 days, as Pie posted earlier. C:

Glad to hear, this BSA with Influence would seriously make things a lot easier!

As we are now getting adults, I will go ahead and close this thread. Below I have listed various quotes and threads of interest.

 

Aeon

 

oh thank god, finally there are adults--

 

 

 

And here's the (giffy!) art of the Aeon, both inactive (non-glow) and active (glow).

I hope you guys find use for its BSA, Precognition.

Kyanite

 

Hey, everyone! Here's a little more information on the Kyanites:

They're sought after as pets due to their playful nature and small size, but because they hide in the ground and beneath large trees, they can be hard to come by. Demand for domestic stock far exceeds supply.

Their weak neurotoxin makes them ideal helpers in kitchens and cafés, where they can help kill rodents and other such pests.

Though they live underground, they're also quite able climbers, and occasionally venture into high tree branches to scout their territory for predators.

I actually didn't mean to make these dragons; back when we were working on the Brewing Up Mischief last year, I was scratch-sprinting the Tanglebracken item, and I noticed the sketchy sprite I had looked like a dragon. So, rather than keep that as the item, I turned it into the Kyanite adult sprite, and started over on the Tanglebracken.

 

Aaaand that's all for now. They'll be fleshed out further in the encyclopedia at some point in the future.

 

 

Dark Lumina

 

Some thoughts on the Dark Luminas:

 

They aren't a new dragon.

The spirits were completed about three and a half years ago - waiting for the right moment. 

 

They aren't alts.

Even though they share hatchling sprites, Dark Luminas are a cousin breed. As such their behavior is actually quite different than their light cousins.  Where as the light Luminae are fairly nice, dark lumina will mess you right up.

 

Dark Luminas are intentionally sleeker. 

They are also longer, faster, and smarter.

 

They are tamable but are a bit like monkeys - they can live with you for years but someday just snap.  The younger you get them the less likely they will snap.

 

There has been some speculation about how breeding works.

I'm not going to revel how it works because that's no fun, but it's not simply luck - I'll say that much.

 

dark to a turpentine:

http://dragcave.net/view/Pd9lv... looks rather familiar... Bred a dark thought.

 

 

Almerald

 

What does "almerald" mean/what is it?

When I googled it all I'm seing are people's nicknames and random low quality photos with people...

It's pretty much me not wanting to name another dragon a generic "gem" name, so I switched out an E with an Al.
