Hey, So Riot's Ability Works By Dragging Up Bad Memories From Someone's Past And Then Magnifying The

Hey, so Riot's ability works by dragging up bad memories from someone's past and then magnifying the reaction, sending the victim into a blind rage. It can be resisted or shrugged off completely if someone has just. Made peace with all their bad memories or if someone just has great control over their emotions.

Who would be most affected?? And who would be least affected??

Most of them would be overcome with emotion. Khoga and Matthias, though, would be my best bet for holding it together. 

Guess who's back with another infected with the egg eating bug? Shroud is apparently very convincing as he got his bestie, who's a normal SD, to monch eggs. Said bestie is named Striver. The two work together to feed their lord's power, with Shroud terrorizing sleeping parents, then Striver brining those nightmares to life.

It's not obvious in this picture, but he has glow eyes. I'm not sure what kind of powers he got from the egg monching, but I'm sure I'll figure it out.

Hypergryph:

Sorry for the delay, I've been spending time with my Mom, as she's been teaching me how to cook all her wonderful recipes. Been a bit preoccupied with cherry turnovers, onigiri, and enchiladas!

I read the short story in Striver's bio, and have to say it was riveting! How you incorporated the taste of the nature eggs was a fun callback to the flavor post! There's also a line in there that's food for thought. It's about losing 'humanity'. Do dragons have 'humanity' in the form that us humans do, or are there key differences? I always assumed that dragons were simply 'more' than humans, physically, mentally, and spiritually, so does that mean they are complex in ways we could never hope to be? Idk, but it's certainly something to chew on!

Striver is also extremely beautiful in his design and color! His blue-purple-red palette is broken up by his skin/ outfit in a way that makes him seem ornate. Also his glowy eyes are pretty neat^^

Unlike those that are drawn to egg eating by their own selfish desires, those that are tricked or goaded into egg eating are also victims themselves(though still not absolved of wrongdoing!). I wish him redemption, and reprieve from shroud's evil influence. Awesome submission!

I haven't seen this asked, so I must do it. Have any of the egg eaters tried a Bogsneak egg?

They haven't had the chance to, nor do they trust baldwin's enough to use his services for an egg.

Hello!! Ive been thinking myself and what if i made my girl Seraph into an egg eater of a different group and I dont really know what kind of side effects from egg eating she would have or if it really changes down the road from the first dragon egg that she eats. So i thought id come to you with a description of two times, one being the first egg, the second being the time when she finds out those are dragon eggs she has been eating.

Before egg eating and during the time of the first one. She is  naïve, sensitive, pretty airheaded at times but also a strong sense of justice, and kindness. The reason why she never knew that she was eating dragon eggs in the first place, was because she wasnt originally dragon but instead changed physically and magically into a dragon. Also how she got into egg eating is because of Six.((another dragon of mine)) Who also kept her in the dark for quite some time.

But now when she found out those were indeed dragon eggs, due to some external factor. She just.... spirals... Feeling things such as despair, undeserving of any second chance, including being locked away for all time. And just massive amounts of guilt. Wishing that the countless eggs she had already eaten and that her group ate could of been undone and brought back. Yet what had been done is already done.

I would love to hear what you have to say about this and could offer some pointers on how to develop this! Thanks!

Hypergryph: Oh my goodness this poor thing! Seraph needs better friends, I hope she finds them!

Hmm... This is a REALLY interesting case you have here. When beastclan(I'm assuming she was beastclan?) ingest dragon eggs they gain powers that align with the element of the egg, the power level of which is decided by their own strength of will. So, while a dragon might gain powers based on their personality/character, a beastclan being will(more predictably) gain elemental-based powers.

Let's say, two raptoriks with equally strong wills yet opposing personalities eat fire eggs. They will both gain fire-based powers of equal strength, with no dependence on their character traits. The raw magic simply overpowers their own personal magic. However, if two dragons eat fire eggs, their personal magic is strong enough to merge with the egg's raw magic, resulting in more unpredictable powers.

I think...you may have to consider how being transformed into a dragon has affected her magical signature. Eaters can only gain powers once, but is this true in Seraph's case? Having eaten eggs before her dragon form would have given her elemental powers for sure, but since all dragons ALREADY have an element, would this render her magic as basic as every other natural-born dragon?

It could possibly open her up for another chance to gain a power when she eats eggs a second time, but seeing as she doesn't know they're eggs, her guilt won't necessarily affect her 'new' powers after the fact.

This was a really cool submission, thank you! I hope that you'll let me know what direction you decide to go with Seraph!

WIPs of the rest of the crew’s portraits! The poses may change, but these are pretty close to what I had in mind. Hope you all enjoy! 

Have you read the book series Cradle at all? I ask because I had a strange thought regarding the magic types of eggs vs dragons-- The main character of the series (at least as far as I've gotten) has a condition that made the magic in his body remain pure, as opposed to other people developing "proper" magic of certian elements.

If this were to happen to a dragon-- somehow keeping the untainted egg magic after hatching/into adulthood, would they be uh. A giant target?

I haven't, though reading about Lindon's soul condition definitely puts it on my 'to-read' list. I'm reading Wings of Fire at the moment as per recommendation, and always love getting book suggestions^^

Hmm...That's an interesting question. While Khoga knows about the raw elemental energies, she would still have to find a way to extract it from a living dragon(pretty difficult!). This means holding a dragon prisoner while on the run(also pretty difficult!). That would greatly risk their cover, but if there was reason to believe this 'raw magic' dragon could provide infinite raw energy, Khoga would pitch the idea to capture them.

Matthias wouldn't like the idea one bit, though. Funnily enough, he'd actually feel threatened to the point of jealousy!

Awesome question, and thank you for bringing Cradle to my attention!
