Posted October 27, 2017 I've just reached 30 hatchlings. Here are my stats: 2 Pumpkin 5 Caligene 4 Graves 3 Shadow Walkers 5 Desipis 3 Marrows 7 Cavern Lurkers 1 Witchlight Share this post Link to post
Posted October 27, 2017 Out of 32 hatchies visited, the breakdown is as follows: 11 Graves 8 Desipis 2 Marrows 2 Caligenes 2 Shadow Walkers 2 Pumpkins 3 Cavern Lurkers 2 Witchlights I've seen a surplus of Graves & Desipis. I'm a bit sad at the apparent reluctance of the other breeds coming to visit me. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 28, 2017 My current 29 visitors break down to: 7 Shadows 4 Marrows 4 Caligene 4 Grave 3 Pumpkin 3 Lurkers 2 Witchlight 2 Depises Pretty even spread except for Shadows. One of the Caligenes I visited redirects to an error page-- not sure what that's about. How did I visit a hatchling on a scroll that doesn't exist? Whoops. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) I don't have a favorite Halloween, so I ended up taking the Witchlight after using a random number generator. I've met 55 hatchlings so far: 3 Pumpkins 7 Black Marrows 6 Shadow Walkers 9 Cavern Lurkers 12 Graves 6 Desipis 9 Caligenes 3 Witchlights Edited November 1, 2017 by Terces Share this post Link to post

Posted October 28, 2017 Current demographic breakdown: 21 total hatchlings 10 (48%) Graves 3 (14%) Pumpkins 3 (14%) Shadow Walkers 3 (14%) Cavern Lurkers 1 (05%) Black Marrow 1 (05%) Desipis 0 Witchlight 0 Caligene Even distribution I am not receiving. xP At the end of the event I might add up all this data to get close to the actual percentages of the breed choices, assuming that's more accurate than the poll. I'm just curious about it. Here's some costume data too (not including my dragon): 9 (43%) hatchlings are wearing an item from the ghost set 5 (24%) Slytherin 3 (14%) Ravenclaw (represent!) 3 (14%) Gryffindor 3 (14%) Hufflepuff 4 (19%) pink ballerina 2 (10%) white ballerina 1 (05%) black ballerina 9 (43%) are wearing parts from only one set (two of those are identical Slytherin Graves) 9 (43%) are mixing parts from different sets 2 (10%) are wearing no costume Also here is my pretty baby's current attire: Share this post Link to post
Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) Graves are my favorite Halloween breed, so of course a Grave hatchling got the pick It's been slow though, only 23 visitors: 1 Pumpkin 2 Marrows 2 Caligenes 3 Shadow Walkers 3 Witchlights 3 Graves 4 Desipises 5 Lurkers What's disappointing is that I only got maybe 2 people visiting me - both were on that first day, and then nada. Wish there were more! I love looking at what crazy mish-mash everyone comes up with for their costumes! Especially since 6 out of those visitors only have the day 1 stuff equipped, and 2 are currently without a costume altogether. So it's looking kind of bland at the moment. BUT I really like that costumes are automatically updated if they're changed. The sole pumpkin visitor has evolved quite a lot in these past three days Edited October 28, 2017 by Yhme Share this post Link to post

Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) I went for a Pumpkin. He looks like this so far: Does anyone know Captain Shakespeare from the movie Stardust per chance? The Pirate hat fits my lil' Shakespeare perfectly, I think, and the parrot is adoring... of course I don't know what else will be coming but I don't imagine I'll change him very much any more. And I've been visited by 1 Pumpkin 1 Black Marrow 2 Shadow Walkers 3 Cave Lurkers 8 Graves 3 Desipis 2 Caligene 2 Witchlight And I think I don't like the ghost hoods. It covers up the pretty faces too much Edited October 28, 2017 by Varnayrah Share this post Link to post
Posted October 28, 2017 I picked caligene as they are my favorites. Kinda surprised to see some names I'm familiar with in the 23 hatchlings who've visited me. I've seen 4 Pumpkins 1 Black Marrow 6 Shadow Walkers 3 Cave Lurkers 3 Graves 4 Desipis 1 Caligene 1 Witchlight Share this post Link to post
Posted October 28, 2017 I chose a Desipis to dress up. It’s amusing, to me, to play such a silly lil’ game with a dragon as lethal as a Desipis So if you get a Desipis from ‘Dragoness17’, that’s me. I’ve already got a couple dragons from scroll names I recognise. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) Nope someone with superdog in their username. Was surprised to see Nakase show up in my hatchies. edit: No my desipis are all other people. Edited October 28, 2017 by TerraAnne Share this post Link to post
Posted October 28, 2017 43 so far and not a single Cavern Lurker. My beautiful baby Share this post Link to post
Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) *clears throat* The dragon does its best approximation of a smile as you look over the various hatchlings. It's hard, however, to think, when there is a very persistent and ever-intensifying voice in your head. Pick me... Pick me. Pick me! PICK ME! PICK! ME! You blink once, twice, at the source of it. The cobra-like, mana-bejeweled hatchling stares back, unblinking, its face a mask of focus so intense you think it might burst. PICK ME PICK ME PICK ME PICK ME... You don't feel a particular inclination to pick the little Desipis, but you do so anyway, just to indulge it and its feeble attempt to control its powers. Swaggering more than walking over, it comes to sit at your side, smugly eyeing those not picked. They file off, one by one, their draconic caretaker waving one wing at you in goodbye, off to wrangle another unfortunate soul. Good. Now present me with candy, slave! the small Desipis' voice rings in your mind. You laugh outloud, not just at the demand itself but at just how ridiculous its still youthful mental voice and its imperious order sound in concert. It looks puzzled. SLAVE! it repeats, louder. PRESENT ME WITH CANDY! As if to punctuate its point, drive it home, it opens its mouth impossibly wide, neck and all, and points a claw inside. You laugh louder. The hatchling frowns to itself. I must have broken your feeble mind. Hm. The elders never did explain how to deal with this. the hatchling says. After a few more moments of guffaws and desperate gasps for air amid your laughing fit, you get yourself under control. Wiping at the tears in your eyes, you look down at the hatchling. "Sorry, little buddy. You just don't have it quite yet." you tell it. It takes the Desipis a few moments to realize what you mean and what has happened. It sits up straighter, a puff of magical flame huffed in frustration. Nonetheless! it announces, I demand candy! You give it a mild, patient look. Eventually, its head lowers. Please, it adds, squeezing the word past its proverbial, telepathic mouth with no small amount of effort. "Alright." you say, "But you'll have to help me do it. After all, we humans are famously inept. What'll it be - pirate, or wizard?" You pause for a moment, giving the small dragon a smile. "And if you behave, I'll act like I'm entirely in your thrall." The hatchling seems to mull this offer for a moment, its wide tail swishing. Eventually, it gives a rather toothy grin and its serpentine head bobs in a small nod. Pirate will do.

Posted October 28, 2017 Wish the users put in as much effort to give their hatchling buddies costumes as you do to write this adorable snippets. *Eyes the costume deprived Despisis and Witchlights I've encountered* Share this post Link to post

Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) Wow, Black Marrow is best pirate! 2 hours ago, Varnayrah said: (...) Does anyone know Captain Shakespeare from the movie Stardust per chance? (...) "Now remember Captain Shakespeare has a fearsome reputation. (...) What the hell is this?" And I don't know whether stick to my hatchling's current costume or the second one. ETA: My little lady likes both, so now she wears the second one with blue scarf and without eyepatch. 2 hours ago, Azure said: I just hope folks are enjoying reading them! Oh, I definitely am! The Desipis' story is very touching. Edited October 28, 2017 by Anemonis Share this post Link to post
Posted October 28, 2017 Gave my smol bean a little Petticoat and a smol friend! I quite liked the blue coat, but I liked the neutral-colored black one instead. Brings out the blue scarf and his little parrot friend more! Speaking of which, our beans need names! I quite like the name Glastyn for him, considering he reminds me of the gray trickster horses from Manx mythology. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 28, 2017 This pirate costume is amazing! For me it was clear since day two that my hatchie would wear a Ravenclaw scarf, but I wasn't entirely satisfied with the rest of the wizard/witch outfit. So I mixed it with the pirate jacket (and the ballerina shirt), and now I have a tiny little Ravenclaw pirate ^^ Share this post Link to post

Posted October 28, 2017 I was torn between grave, caligene and black marrow at first. I thought "Everyone's gonna choose graves, I should try to stand out, maybe?" You can see how that worked out. Lol; Share this post Link to post
