The Aquaborealis Group!

Aquaborealis info!

General Info

Aquaborealis are often elusive. They typically avoid contact with other dragons, and are normally found in small groups. They travel in groups of four (4), except for breeding season. There are the occasional solitary dragons, or larger groups.

Breeding and Hatching;

Aquaborealis typically breed for life. Some do not stay together once an offspring is successful. Mates stay together, and protect each other. They stay together for life, except for the Queen. She chooses her mate, then basically moves on. Brothers and sisters sometimes breed too. Same with cousins, and other relatives, just not parents or grand parents!

Aquaborealis babies hatch semi-quickly. They fly within the first month of their lives. Before flight, they stay underwater, breathing through gills. Aquaborealis babies hatch with their eyes open. They know how to swim instinctively, and can out swim most creatures.

Appearance;

Aquaborealis have a large body structure. Their most distinctive features are their glowing spots and marks, and long, strong tails with a paddle-like tail. Their tails are as long as their bodies (Head to end), if not longer. Tails end with a paddle. They are powerful, and excellent for swimming.

The glowing marks are unique to dragons. Aquaborealis distinguish each other by their glow marks. They are similar, but never the exact same. Each has slightly different glow colors too. Their glow colors are lighter than their body color.

Aquaborealis are typically a shade of blue, or indigo. On a few rare occasions, there are differently colored ones.

Aquaborealis have webbed feet. The webbing is normally a similar or same color as the wing membranes, which are also lighter than the rest of their bodies.

On their backs, Aquaborealis have a web-like structure building out of their spines. It goes all the way from slightly above their noses, to the paddle part of their tail.

Aquaborealis have noses for when they are flying, and gills for when they are underwater. Most of their time is spent in or under water.

There are ear fins sticking outside of their heads. These can be rotated like an owls' head for maximum hearing.

Combat;

Aquaborealis rarely breath "fire". If they do, it is an icy water with ice shards cutting though. Boiling water can also be a weapon, but depends on their body temperature.

In combat, these dragons mainly use their tails to attack. Their paddled tails are flung around with great force.

Abilities;

Aquaborealis have the rare ability of telepathy. They rarely use it though, normally using grunts, moans, squawks, and barks. These dragons swim extremely well, and can breathe air and have gills to breathe underwater!

Denim, Dark Waters, Acuario, and Luminoso are all part of my Aquaborealis family so far! Will you get one in yours? Or will you get another?

This isn't exactly a challenge, but I'll call it that anyway!

I'm at a loss for names! I'm creating a new species of dragon, as you may have seen in my sig. I am writing all the details and such whenever I can, I have the base headshot! Once I get a name, I will release them for adoption. Their actual full body is in the works, I have three options drawn currently. If you have an interest in helping me with this, pm me! 

There's a prize? Sorta... I have pretty much three options. A free custom one when they're released, a few banned breedings, or a Crown Ticket. Probably will be a custom one once released, as they are going to require a long-ish backstory! And I migth be more harsh on them!

Anyway, if you're interested, pm me. I don't want to release the headshot, or much info, until the entire thing is done!
 

New Challenges coming soon!

What is a Crown Ticket?

These are special tickets, with special prizes. Exclusive Aquaborealis, Rare Aquaborealis, and much, much more! These are still slightly a WIP, but are coming out!

The Prize Pool.

The Prize Pool is a variety of Aquaborealis related prizes, ranging from multiple Banned Breedings, to special Aquaborealis, to Aquaborealis Mystery Items. The current amount is never released, and is only known to Angriff, Echo, and I. The prizes in are only revealed as they are claimed. 

How to get a Crown Ticket?

Crown Tickets are given out at random. Ever had a teacher that would give you something if you got a great score on a test, answered a question correctly, ect? This is like it. In a way. Helping me out when I ask (If you pester me, I will not give you one), helping me out of a slump (Like I was in a few days ago), or just boosting my mood! There are many ways to earn one.

How long are the Crown Tickets good for?

As long as needed. I keep track of what is what, who has any, and all the details. If you try to reuse a ticket, I will stop doing Crown Tickets for everyone. So don't try me.

What do I do with a Crown Ticket?

Crown Tickets are exchanged through a pm for a prize. Your prize will be picked at random, with a randomizer. If you do not like it, you may return your prize. Do NOT give your prize, or Crown Ticket away. I will know, and confinscate either, and you have been deemed untrustworthy. Removed from Eldership (If you have one), and not given a Crown Ticket again. 

If you manage to get a Crown Ticket, the proceedure is on the ticket itself. Pm me, and give your ticket to Angriff and Echo, as they will deal with it, and I will bring you your prize.

Do I have to use my ticket as soon as I get it?

Of course not! But, you may only trade in one ticket a day, and three per week (Subject to change). So, you might want to save it, might not.

Hope you enjoy the Crown Tickets!

Here's the avalible Aquaborealis, up for adoption!

Just fill out the form here ;) And any with a rarity of three (3) or higher require at least 3 paragraphs.

Name:

Number:

Group:

Rarity:

Back story (At least two paragraphs):

One per person per group if you have four Aquaborealis or less. If you have more, you may get one every other group. Backstory must start with us returning to Berk. If you have read this, put "Aquaborealis Are Tidal Class" as your subject. If you do not, I will assume you have not, and ignore your post. If you have included any dragons that are not Aquaborealis in your story, I'd love to see them in the post! If you already have more than 5 Aquaborealis, I'd rather you sit these out, at least for a few Groups. Ok?

Absolutely do NOT adopt if you will ever give them up, especially without consulting me. Aquaborealis are like parrots. They bond with their riders, and tear themselves apart if they are separated. If you feel the need to release them, pm me. If I see a single one given out again, I will be furious. Punching a hole in the wall kind of furious. Seriously.

Group E

Must credit Kcrockett and Spy!!!
