Dragon Babies

[jovia]

I talked with Kit a little bit on the cbox about this... but I was looking at the Amethyst hatching and Chahaturth's hatching and there is a very very big difference in the details.

Now I would like to suggest at least a minimum for baby description, and I have several reasons why.

If there is too much of a difference, especially with being sooo little information, especially on one side of the Site. New members and old won't go there at least for babies because why should they only to get things that are just throwaways. And that is what it looks like, throwaways that nobody cares about so why should they?

Also the first clutch really does set how things go... if on a site you saw a first clutch with hardly any information on the dragons you really wouldn't stay, at least most wouldn't. I understand for those who like to fix up their Dragon's the way they want to... but that isn't everyone either.

So maybe do something like the templates, a minimum of one paragraph for each thing and a template for the baby dragons for those with clutching mothers? Unless you already have a template of course that is... I would say a good one paragraph for the appearance would at least be helpful for people to go off of as well. If they want to change it, they can over a course of time... like a chubby dragon can get fit after lots of work. So can give plot and stuff too and reason for more rp.

I will also put in that we could leave it up the members whether they want short, keyword descriptions or paragraphs of text. With lots of small hatchings being held, it probably wouldn't be hard to alternate between having a hatching with keyword descriptions, then one with paragraphs, etc., depending on how many of each we have.

ooooo yeah could add that in the questionairre

Do you want a fully detailed baby?: Yes/no

I sort of assumed that the basic personality is something Im allowed to get more descriptive on by myself. Giving the basis skeleton points of Past's personality he can grow either two ways, an overly protective whiny king or the best adrenaline junkie friend ever.

But I do have to agree, a few more details might be nice. Like the fear of the cat, that was an awesome add-age

I like the idea of an option, yeah. Cause I like the little bits

It can definitely be added. As it had been it was up to those that were in charge of the hatchings to either give more or less description. I generally like giving less because it allows the new owner to develop the baby in whatever way they want, Akira liked hers to be a bit more developed.

[jovia]

yeah, but some people don't like to develop or some do, or some like to have large amounts of info to explain everything to them so they know what they are working with to change in the rp XD *is late I know, just saw this*

The template's already been added to, and the whole thing honestly is going to go over some revision in the "Summer Cleaning" of the site.
