My Egg Eating Dragons Were Born Out Of Necessity- Dragons Who Had Just Been At War Now Facing Famine

My egg eating dragons were born out of necessity- Dragons who had just been at war now facing famine that could destroy the clan once and for all.

Pyrus (Guardian) decided that she wasn't going to let her clan die, and convinced her mate Darkrage (Mirror) to eat some of the dragon eggs when there was an abundance of eggs being left to rot, and not enough prey to go around.

They did disguise the eggs as different forms of Beastclan eggs to start with- because at this time no other dragon in the clan would've gone with this plan, even if it was for survival. But eventually the clan was too hungry and too grateful for any food at all to focus on what they were being fed.

Eventually the eggs begin to run low as well but there are still a few dragons that nobody would miss out there...

I haven't decided if this will allow my dragons any sort of power, or if this has horrible changes in their elemental breath attacks and such, but I did only start writing lore 2 weeks ago

Pyrus being a guardian, the species known for protecting their charges, and Darkrage being a Mirror, a species originating from plague and who value survival through suffering, are very notable points of interest here... They're protecting the thing they value in a crisis of survival, and the Egg Eating might seem like a good fix to a pair like that.

The famine circumstances *almost* justify them considering dragon eggs as a food source. It's do or die, and morality gets very fuzzy when your clan is so desperate for food that they're starving to death around you...but then Pyrus and Darkrage go and lie to their clanmates about it, which is very telling. They believe they know best, and don't trust/respect their clanmates enough to tell them the truth.

It's that special brand of unhealthy leadership that so many people fall into: Heads of families lying to their children, team leaders trying to improve their teammates through underhanded tricks, friends or SO's hiding grievances through lies instead of communicating and working things out. Good leaders respect, trust, and serve their followers, and realize that they're equal as peers even if not in their role. It's a damn shame to see irl, but man does it make for some delicious character flaws in fiction.

Oof, and that last implication about a few dragons being around that nobody would miss?? Absolutely CHILLING...

Eggs are one thing...but other dragons? Massive Cooking Companions-esque vibe you've got there.

This is very impressive for 2 weeks(though, there's most likely more at the time of writing this). If you're alright with it, I'd love to read what you've come up with since submitting this!

Thank you for sharing!

Hope you get your account back!

As do I, dude. As do I.

(Also thank u^^)

Who are the dragons in your banner? The art is so lovely !!

Heya, thanks, I'm glad you like them!

The middle Wildclaw is how I draw myself. A hypergryph FR sona, so to speak!

The mirror and the other wildclaw aren't specific characters, but they are Talosians and show off a little of what the Kingdom is supposed to feel like. Warrior wildclaws have been a Talosian staple, and the mysterious forest surrounding the Kingdom is a setting I love to imagine.

did they say what about your activity made them think you were multiaccounting? can you copypaste what they said exactly if they did? i've always been really scared of getting a random ban and like to know what to avoid doing to make staff think i was multiaccounting.

I think straight copy pasting would fall into abusing the ticket line system( Not 100% sure, so just being safe here)

No, nothing of that nature was included in the reply, which was probably a safety measure. Don't want that info floating around the internet where it can be used to avoid detection, so they most likely don't even release what they look for.

Yeah it can be a little jarring. Everyone's different in how much their lore/clans mean to them, so I can only speak from my experience.

To curb anxiety it might help to consider backing up your lore and anything else you might feel is important to you. That's all you really can do. Stressing about the stuff you can't control only serves to make you more anxious. No game is worth worrying so hard over that you can't enjoy it, especially if it's something out of your hands.

Would you mind telling us more about the veilspuns? Obviously not asking for spoilers, but I will confess to some curiosity about how you think they've been going about this mysterious plot of theirs!

While I can't reveal the innerworkings of their plan, I can give you these designs for Night and Fatestring, and a few tidbits of info^^

- Night and Fatestring may have infiltrated the Elite Council, but they're not the only Veilspun hidden within the Talosian Kingdom...

-They're small enough to perch on Lord Talos' shoulders. From there it's quite easy to whisper enchantments to the King and his peers.

-Their hypnotic magic is entirely new to the Talosians, which explains why no magical defenses were in place to counter them.

-According to Night, smarter dragons are easy to hypnotize.
