Cracked Dragon Adopts

General Information

Cracked Dragons have only recently opened and we are looking for artists, mods and an archivist. If you are interested in any of these three jobs check out our artist competition, or PM me.

Cracked Dragon Adopts were actually based off a character of mine who is atleast a (human) year old, who I named Shatter. Her entire left front-paw was made of diamonds. Freaky right? As soon as I work out how to actually cut the diamond paw (e.g. how to make a lot of flat surfaces into a paw-shaped thing) I will draw her on CS.

Description:

A Cracked Dragon (CKD) is a peaceful beast, and often resides near forests, rivers or lakes, though a few have been seen wandering the desert or wading threw a swamp. Cracked Dragons are often playful creatures now, loving the toys that humans have invented. But they still hunt for food themselves, and refuse to be completely tame.

Every Cracked Dragon has what we would call a birthmark somewhere on their body, and this birthmark's colour is always on the opposite end of the colour wheel according to it's base colour, the shape of the birthmark is a good indicator of what ability the Cracked will have. A Cracked Dragon can channel their power through the crystal on their body's different types of crystal can channel at different strengths.

Though, like all races there are always the defects.

A Brief History of the Cracked Dragons
(Optional Read)


The Crystal Dragons (or Cracked Dragons as they were later come to be known) existed centuries ago, living simply in forests on their base instincts. Yes, long ago these intelligent beings, much like ourselves, were nothing but what we would call savages. Yet it was their sudden consciousness of their actions, their abilities that frightened us.

As the Crystals evolved and developed awareness they started using the abilities given to them by Forgotten Ones (called so for nobody has a memory of them) for creation, shelters and fire, cooked food, things we had learned many years ago but the Crystals had only just begun to harness and use.

And then... They discovered deceit.

Lies became common, treachery blossomed and wars unfolded. We humans were caught in the middle. Our towns and villages were used as battlefields, burned, flooded or diseased. While the Crystals were trying to wipe each other out they were doing an excellent job of killing us off too.

It was then we decided to take action, and it was then that we entered their war. Us humans fought for days on end but even the most dimwitted simpleton could see that we were fighting a losing battle. So we called on help, from the very beings who gave the Crystals their power, the Forgotten Ones. Most had travelled across the seas to an unknown land,but not all of them, a few still remained. Coming out of hiding they agreed, with much reluctance, to help us humans even though we participated in many petty wars of our own.

And so the proud race of the crystal Dragons were imprisoned in the very stones that adorned their hides. And the last of the Forgotten Ones died, with no descendants who could free the Crystals. Or so they say.

The Crystals are now a broken and beaten race, when imprisoned in their crystal cages it was as it time slowed down and a single blink took many decades. Now around three thousand years later humans discover the long forgotten Crystal race and raid their tombs for the precious rubies, sapphires and other gemstones. Now free to walk the Earth, an alien landscape compared to what they left, the Cracked, as they now call themselves, seek companionship with the very race who wanted to imprison them. Humans.

Three thousand years of being trapped in their very selves has given them time to think, and every single one of them that has been freed must take a vow. To never fight unless defending oneself, a friend, or for food. To never tell a lie. To never destroy. To forgive us humans for it was them who started it all.

When cut out of the crystal, the Cracked lost most of their power to channel and are now limited on what they can do. Their main ambition to seek human partners, or keepers is to learn from them the skills with which to survive. For the Cracked had grown soft during their final days before entombment, letting their abilities do all the work for them.

So, will one choose you?

Artist Rules


1. You must clearly state what power a CKD has, as not everyone will be able to spot the birthmark.
2. No 5 minute artworks, I expect a certain degree of professionalism.
3. Reading the Cracked Dragon description is mandatory, as it explained some requirements that most Cracked Dragons have to meet.
4. You must contact me if you wish to make a defected CKD.

11. You must create at least one CKD a week, at a maximum two.
12. Should you fail to continue making CKDs or no longer have the time to you will have to leave CKD adopts. I don't need artists who will sit around and do nothing. There is an exception to those who have told me they should be on holidays/sick/in hospital etc.
13. If you no longer want to be an artist you can't just get up and leave, give me one months notice so I can get a new artist in.
14. If an artist wishes to create a stone or diamond CKD they must contact me first.
