Nestled off beyond the general population evolved a small reptile with wings. Bugs and berries were the common food but evolution struck again when predators began to enter the environment. Berries and fruit on the ground became easier to manage and slowly their wings grew useless, an accessory. Strong sturdy legs with thumbs on each paw/feet, soon these small reptiles expanded in color and grew their distinctive trait, fruit and leaves…

Dragon Fruits are a sub species of lizards that evolved wings originally for flight but soon grew to almost mere accessories when the environment demanded it. Now these dragons mostly stick to the trees and grounds and occasionally will glide. Their vibrant colors have grown through the years to mimic the fruit they now grow at the ends of their tails to help blend in amongst the foliage they live upon. The fruit on the tip of their tails are edible and are usually a last resort source of food or a way to express trust and close bonds. These dragons grow their fruit through the nutrients they eat. Being able to carry these items required stronger tails and legs to balance out the weight. In order to blend in with fruit, Dragon Fruits must climb or be small to hide. They’ve evolved durable claws and thumb like appendages to grip on trees or other structures. Their location started out in the forest but have grown to expand out towards grass fields, jungles, and even beaches.

Dragon Fruits live in colonies small all the way to large. They are sociable creatures and are omnivores but lean more to having fruit they scavenge being their primary food source. They are both predator and prey.

Dragon Fruits is a lore centered arpg. You’ll developed your colony in order to level up and earn items from the shop. Gradually new fruits and traits will be added.

GETTING DRAGONS

Adopts are a great way to scout for new dragons for your colony! Dragons will have an adopt me sign to indicate they are available to enter! You can purchase customs as well to make your own right here at the shop! You can also do hatchery breedings to add some budlings! Who knows, maybe you’ll make a cool hybrid. More information will be available on their pages!

LEVELING AND EXP

Every user will start at level 0 with a capacity of 5 dragons total for your colony. You can level up to add more slots to your colony to fit more dragons! At the moment the cap will be level 9 with 50 dragons and might expand further if necessary. If you hit level 9, feel free to keep earning exp or you can convert your extra exp into currency for the shop!

Each time you level up your exp starts back at 0, overflow is accounted for and will be added onto the total towards the next level

Level 0: 5 dragons max, need 100 exp to level up
Level 1: 10 dragons max, need 250 exp to level up
Level 2: 15 dragons max, need 400 exp to level up
Level 3: 20 dragons max, need 550 exp to level up
Level 4: 25 dragons max, need 700 exp to level up
Level 5: 30 dragons max, need 850 exp to level up
Level 6: 35 dragons max, need 1000 exp to level up
Level 7: 40 dragons max, need 1150 exp to level up
Level 8: 45 dragons max, need 1300 exp to level up
Level 9: 50 dragons max, need 1450 exp to level up (tbd)

PROMPTS

This is how you’ll earn exp to level up as well as the in game currency, fireflies!
Promos have been divided up into territory, lore, individual, relationships, normal, and special. Special prompts are a way to earn not only currency but even items! You’ll answer these prompts somewhere in your storage and link them in the leveling and claims thread! There are over 100 prompts so hopefully you won’t be getting bored easily haha.

You can find the link to the prompt list here and also on the leveling and claims forum

BUG CATCHING

In need of fireflies or maybe even get exp and rare items? Send your dragon to go bug catching for fireflies! Once a day you can send your dragons to go rummage through the grass fields and see what they’ll come back with! Who knows what you’ll find out there.

AGING BUDLINGS

Budlings are baby Dragon Fruits. They’re primarily green with a splash of color here and there and a majority of their future color on the flower they grow on their tail. That flower will eventually sprout into a fruit! Budlings are mostly green to blend in with the foliage and hide from predators. Budlings take 4 weeks to grow in total, 1 week to hatch and another 3 to grow, but you can purchase a Sweet Fruit Snack at the shop to speed up one Budlings growth by 2 weeks! They can only be applied once.

Current Available Fruits: apple, orange, banana, pear, blueberry, and grape

Dragon Fruits can come in all sorts of markings and traits but one thing you’ll notice between each species is their coloring. Pureblood dragons in each fruit species will have a similar color gradient used to help blend themselves in. Pear dragons can come in yellows and greens, blueberry dragons in blues and purples, apple dragons red, yellows, and greens and etc! Leaves can come in any range of natural colors alongside blues and all dragons can have any amount of white and counter-white on them (as long as it doesn’t cover the entire body)

Click here to view the color gradients each species is able to come in. While these are a standard, if you feel a color can fit the dragon but isn’t apart of the gradient, feel free to add it on. Gradients don’t cover everything so vibrant, pastel, and duller colors are also allowed.

The only color not seen on Dragon Fruits is black and near black colors but can be added through a mutation

Designs can be anything and any amount of colors you want. Red swirls, yellow dots, whatever you wish, it’s just their natural color gradient that is the boundary. Dont worry though, maybe there’s also a mutation where we can apply not normal species colors to a dragon or even mix and match through hybrids!

Dragon Fruits can also have any eye color you desire no matter what fruit species they are.

Hybrid dragons follow each of their two gradients but are able to now use both gradient colors for their patterns! A blueberry and a banana hybrid is able to have both yellows and blues on their scales.


──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Dragons grow their respective species fruit on their tail. Usually it will folllw the colors they have on their scales as well. Hybrid dragons are a bit different as their fruit they grow looks like a combination between their mixes. An apple and banana could be a long red banana they grow for example. The possibility are endless with hybrids!



──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Traits that appear on dragons have a wide variety each having evolved for their own special purpose. Traits are divided into categories depending on how much they will alter your original dragon. The higher the rarity, the harder to obtain.

Please do not redraw/trace lines unless needed for an edit, this means no redrawing just to fit your style
