What are Dargons?A Dargon is an alien species that greatly resembles a dragon. However, they are not. While they have four legs and can fly, they have large ears, a layer of fur under their scales, and are not able to manipulate any element. Males of all subspecies have underscales, left over from more primitive days of fighting over females. The genome of the Dargon is vast and complex, allowing for innumerable color and pattern combinations. However, they do have their distinctions between breeds.
Dargons live in systems called Tribes. Each Tribe has a Chief or Chieftess, who decides who can and can't be a part of the tribe. Tribes can war, be allies, and even interbreed. They are intelligent enough to fashion simple tools and decorations with their opposable thumbs. Dargons communicate with a language of spoken sounds vaguely like English. They are omnivores who hunt and forage in groups. They make their homes in cave systems somewhat like a prairie-dog town.
Dargons were first found by human explorers when their home planet was in crisis, mere months away from being devoured by a black hole. Using technology and some Dargon magic, humans managed to transport many Dargons back to earth. After initial lab testing, it was found that Dargons would make great, though large, companions and pets for humans.
This will be an ongoing search for artists for this fabulous new species! Each week, Scottish9 will peruse the entrants and hire any who strike her as good artists and kind people.

I got chosen! Now what?
- General Artists:
General artists will have one week (7 days) to make three adopts, no more and no less. They may not make any customs or event adopts. If they are chosen, they will start receiving their salary and their name will not be removed. By PM arrangement, a Guest GA may instead make 5 Dargons over a 2-week frame
Nursery Artists
Guest NAs will be allowed to make whelps for three breeding requests. Due to the random nature of the nursery, there is no specific timeframe. Scottish9 will defer any breeding requests sent to her to any Guest NAs
