Comments: If she's not a sport, I have no idea what she is.

The dragon was obviously not dead, for it was working from the inside as the red flit worked from the outside. After five endless minutes of struggling, the eggshell finally cracked and a very very tiny dragon flopped listlessly onto the Sands. Jumi was on her knees instantly, cradling the tiny dragon in her lap. Only then did she notice the color of the dragon. Her body was a mix of bronze and white and her wings a mix of green and white. She pushed her tiny head into Jumi's hand and hummed happily as she received the first of many eyeridge scratches. "You'll be fine, Tireikath," Jumi promised and, rising carefully to her feet, half-carried her exhausted dragon off the Sands, her red flit perched proudly on her shoulder.

I'll definitely be posting a couple but at least one will have to wait until I've got my furry pages back up. Surrith! whiteeee!

[Yakima]

His listed size was from back when everything was given in metres.

He's a sport...anything above 20 m is a green. Anything under 15 m gets change to whatever you want between 15' and 20'

Tireikath will be a bronze-green genetically. Unless I use the * code somehow to indicate something weird with the Hh1 code. (like Hh1* so that h1 is seen but fades?) *shrugs* Otherwise I really have no of representing colors like that.

Dunno...I doubt my code can "accomidate" every weird coloration ever hatched. LOL

Adityath is correct. (and that fire lizard was drawn by me, if you want me to claify. LOL) XD



For Size Dominance, just pick one. It's not really going to matter. If you pick recessive, I will use the same rules as I do with Flynnth if they get paired with a "normal" size dragon. If you choose dominate, I'll use a different d10 rule set that is reversed so that the size of there mate doesn't matter. It's homozygous recessive and homozygous dominate. In some/most cases, it won't matter because both will be sport sized. If you want more sport sized dragons for sure, pick dominate. If you want a chance at some "normal" sized dragons, pick recessive.

[Guest]

Thanks for the clarification on the flit. xD

I have no problem with Tireikath's code being bronze-green. Don't worry about it. She's the weirdest Pern dragon I have.

And I've edited my original post with the needed info.

[Yakima]

XD thanks...and welcome.

[Keilin Alyr]

Hmm, I have a bronze dragon that's the size of a small blue (his rider is incredibly tiny, a detail I exaggerated in story but didn't grasp the consequences of until much later), though that doesn't really fit your ultra-tiny definition of "sport". Then again, he is all but mated to a white dragon, since finding small golds in his size range is fairly difficult.

*ponders*

On the other hand, I could just roll a d20 3 times and pick 3 whites that way. XD

EDIT: Hey, it's Tireikath, the dragon with two daddies! *chuckles* I always thought she was a beautiful dragon, and secretly hoping I could earn a rarity like her before Quinalt closed. Sadness. =\

[Yakima]

ooh, interesting. LOL The genetics for her will be fun to figure out. LOL She should be easy, too...her white sire is Falas-shelled. XD The other two were cannon characters...soo...

Anyway, You can sumbit him, Keilin, but I may or may not use him. Soliath is in this because Flynnth is his mate and she's tiny. XD

Dragon: Jasperth - http://dracothrope.lmfao.org.uk/Bonds/o ... ibond1.htm
(New link will be http://dray.pegaruny.com/Dragons/Maohli.htm#Jasperth once he is repaged and re-homed)
Gender: Male
Color: Black-Green
Size: Sport (His sizes are messed up on his page because he was my first dragon and I had no idea what I was doing. XD)
Hatched @: Darkling Dawn, Clutch 6
Rider: Maohli of Nidus Descendi ( http://dray.pegaruny.com/Dragons/index. ... usDescendi )
Size Dominance: You pick!
Code: He has the whole two-colours going on (Black body, green wings). There is also the potential for some weird stone-coloured dragons through his father's side. If you have a code that allows for the various gemstones, that would suit just fine. Other than that, I don't know your code right off the bat and I find it a little brain-boggling to try to sort it all out, so you can have at!
Comments: I think he's my only sport-sized dragon ever! He... might actually not be sport-sized. Kitsuneko could probably clear things up in case I'm wrong!

[Kitsuneko]

I generally consider blacks sport-sized, so yeah. (I will pick through mine and send some dragons in when I get the chance.)

[Yakima]

Hmmm...don't know. The sire was from the clutch at Opal Moon/Kjanli'eyr...that transitional clutch and I think, according to that hatching story, the moving of the eggs caused the strange colors. Not sure. I was kind of humored when is saw Falas mentioned, though. LOL

XD Sometimes I think it would have been best for me not to genetic codes because what's the point of having something no one understands. Even if I've have at least two pages explaining it. heehee...

[Yakima]

Hmmm...Dray, how do you decide there heigth to shoulder? *blinks*

[Dray]

It's just the presentation of it makes me go cross-eyed in a "oh god, it's tl;dr!" because it looks like a solid wall of text including letters/numbers that take me back to my algebra days of terror. XD

It just needs some hierarchy implemented into the page so that even if a person has no idea what's going on, they can get sucked into reading about it! I've been meaning to actually read the whole thing some time soon. Maybe I can go through it and try to display it in a way that simplifies things, once I wrap my head around it? :3

[Yakima]

Heh...yeah, I never took algebra. >.<I>.< I could hardly remember how to use the graphing calculator! That is bad. 'cousre, I've never had to use such stuff since I graduated. LOL

Yeah, please. I've treid to simplify it with the help page at Falas. Some people say they get it. I know it pretty much by heart but I made it. LOL. Once you figure out what each letter means, and the rules for greens and golds, ect., it's something I play with at work. (or maybe I'm just a geek of some sort. hee) The only confusing thing is the C, T, and N numbers because C and N line up with the same column for the table, and the T is a number off *snorts* Even I've messed that one up (meaning I have to send a PM to Mystic about two clutches for the Victory Dance...)

I like the code. The few clutches I've done either as practice or the Dark Moon clutch, turned out more like they "should". There are some downfalls to it, like two-tone dragons can only have two-toned offspring, the colors aren't dispalyed in the code and are random, and the light/nights bred togehter will have more light/nights. But there are a lot of things I do like...it can be very hard to get a rare dragon at times. I like THAT the most. Heehee...

Sometimes, I think you know my dragons better than I do. XD I hope you get a strange little creature like Tireikath very quickly too. xD


XD Dray's Jasperth is Adityath's grandson(?!).
That's pretty cool that he's your first dragon. Adityath is my first dragon.

[Yakima]

Would there be interest in this? If I have to, I have a long list of sport dragons I can use for this Frenzy depending on how many candidates I get.

This won't be for a while but I'm having to much fun with my clutch/genetic code generator at the moment...(already have clutch 32 ready to go... )

If you have a sport sized dragon that would want to participate, let me know here. I will allow larger sized dragons (blue, brown, green ect) if a sport has a preffered mate (like Flynnth and a few of my sports...)

Clutches will be small and I will need genetic codes eventually for them (most normal Pernese have easy codes, don't worry).

"Genetically, this dragon is a: gold, bronze, brown, blue or green Kit. So Fewuth will either be gold or green, Loroth bronze, brown, or blue. I need to know this to know how the first part of the code works. Seleth I might now use, being he's half Alskyrian - unless we get anouther half-alskyrian in the mix or something but I'm rolling all clutches with genetics and while I based the new Alskyrian code ON Pernese genetics, there are differences. We'll see. It kinda depends on how many candidates I get and I'm not expecting to many.

I will be adding codes as they come along. If you feel confident enough to create your own code for your dragon, post it here.

[Yakima]

Changed the form. I pretty much had the same question on it twice...i was tired...apparently...

[Kitsuneko]

Oh yeah, I see, it's the GwDgWd Rr Bb part, right? That makes sense.
I'll say Fewuth is a green, and Loroth blue. I could try making up codes with the old genetics, but I'm not sure of all the changes you may have made to it recently. I'll leave the code-making up to you.

[Yakima]

If you can create a code with the old genetics, I can translate.

[Kitsuneko]

Fewuth: XgwDF XgwDF Rr BB Hh LL UU C1C2 T2*T2* Oo (ss N1N2) M1M1
(Fewuth is a two-tone of sorts, but not a typical one, so I wasn't sure exactly how to translate that.)

Loroth: XGwdF* Y RR Bb HH LL UU C1C2 T1T1 OO (Ss N1N1) M1M1
(I forget exactly how the sport mutation works, I tried to get as close as I could. Loroth is, by all appearances, a natural white like Ruth.)

This is only vaguely related, but can I just say how much that B gene irks me? It behaves exactly like a recessive gene, so it should be notated like one. Browns should have to have bb, not BB. >.< Anyway, I know you didn't create that part, but yeah. It bothers me.

[Yakima]

Thanks Kit!

Fewuth is more speckled than two-tone. Two-tone (T) changes the wing color only. Since her gold sploches sploch all over her body, its more like a speckled pattern so i changed her to speckled.
You got the sport mutation right though the F* can just be F. F is fertility in female dragons, namlely greens. It allows them to chew firestone and clutch. FF is typical and most golds have FF and most males have F. Ff is fertile but they will only clutch 1/3 times they have a flight. ff is a highly fertile green (or in my case, pale golds), and they clutch 1 out of every 2 times they have a flight.

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/61160275/c_32.htm I dunno if that will help but that is the clutch results for clutch 32 (I wasn't going to revele it but it might help understand the new code).

KK PP will be tricky, I think. II and Ii are a normal shaded dragon. ii allows for a change in the shade. KK pp, Kk pp are darker dragons, kk PP, kk Pp are lighter. kk pp, Kk Pp, and KK PP are still normal even if the Intensity is ii. I'm still playing with Ryslen Lights and Nights...I dunno if it should be something connected to K and P or the I...(Unless a light has to have i* and P*, and a night i* and K*?) I dunno. Faroth code might get changed later because i'm undecided on the best way for lights and nights and to have offspring carry it.

[Yakima]

I'll definitely be posting a couple but at least one will have to wait until I've got my furry pages back up. Surrith! whiteeee!

Shard, you have furry pages? *blinks* like fur or mold...cause I prefer the fur...

[TyGryph]

I'm still playing with Ryslen Lights and Nights...

There is probably a better topic for this, but I'm going to throw it in here because it's current.

Ryslen Lights, Nights, and Twilights (half silver) are just a color variation.

A Night blue is a blue in all things. Some quirk/mutation in the pigment caused a gradient fade (to black). It does not affect his size or any physical thing. It may inflate his ego. It may or may not carry to his offspring, depending on the traits of his mate. They are considered bicolored, though they really aren't. The only "secondary" color a Light or Night possesses is their base color turned way down or way up. (Twilights are turned metallic, which somehow negates the pigment leaving shiny silver. I wasn't concerned with genetics when I made them.) Their color mutation makes them sports after a fashion; more special than a regular solid-colored dragon of the same hue.

I recall a Discussion I had with Falora of Talor Cliff on the subject in the time of the first Flurry. I had to assure her that a Light blue is just a blue.

And speaking of the Flurry... all of those snowflakes were a Flurry-magic gift to mark the dragon as having been born of that event. They were never supposed to be passed on to future (non-Flurry) generations.

I don't know if that will help with genetics or ruin stories or just be an infodump in the greater story of the Nexus, but there you have it.

[Yakima]

I've always considered lights and nights (had never considered silver...) as a color mutation on the base color and record them, genetically, as whatever the 'other' color is (Faroth is considered a blue, Ilverinth a green...ect); its like (to me) clouded or even speckled dragons. (keep in mind, too, a lot of the 'weird' colors that have cropped up in the last decade I've only been able to explain by saying it was a mutation...*sighs* Pernese suddenly have a lot of mutations...)

As of now, i have light and nights (might be able to 'explain' twilights now to, come to think of it), this way.

It's based on the 'Intensity (I) allele and is marked with *, only found on i (so i*). To be a light, night, twilight, one needs to have either ii* or i*i* (homozygous which i try to avoid when 'assigning' genetics on lights/nights). KK and PP are the 'determining' factor for light or night (and twilight...I just didn't know about them at the time). To be a light dragon, they need PP* or P*P*; to be night, KK* K*K*, and twilight can be KK* PP* or K*K* P*P* (maybe...thinking as I type here...). The only trick is if the dragon has Ii*, I is dominate for no change in the hide and will be 'normal', even with i* and a K* or P*. I noticed that, based on previous clutches, you seemed to have a lot of dark+normal dragons produce nights and light+normal dragons produce lights so I tried to create something that reflected that (and it won't always be perfect).

I have K and P mutate a lot, being that it really doesn't create 'rare' dragons, per-say, but a variation which allows for a KK pp x Kk pp to have offspring with Kk Pp (which is common and even with ii the dragon is normal colored cause the two cancel each other out...). I haven't played with many light/night x normal pairings yet (only the next clutch for the FGPC when I get to it, as I have a light gold) so I haven't been able to test all this out fully yet but it makes semi-sense in my head right now. I don't want Ryslen dragons super easy to 'make' genetically but I want them available. I only allow dragons of Ryslen decent to even consider having the * on i or K or P because of this; it was native to Ryslen (something in the water, perhaps, eh? heheee) and I want to keep it that way (the light gold i mentioned is Faroth's daughter.)

There is another way to get a 'light'/'night' dragon without being of Ryslen origin, however, but this specific gene is meant specifically for Ryslen-decedents.
