January acquisitions: [+4, -1]
We’re back to impulse buys! And back to MAKING DECISIONS. At the start of the year I had a bunch of “maybes” kicking around the fodder tab because I haven’t had the attention or care to decide who stays. No logs for this, but I did punt a bunch of dudes who’ve been hanging around.
Bought: (3)
- Reyaxi (Dec 1, 5g): female spiral | orca sailfish | mulberry lacquer | orca sparkle
- [originally: guardian, falcon/striation/gembond]
- Been a long time since we had a “pure” fodder rescue. Not a g1 or low-gen/pure-gen, not a self-hatch from a lore couple, not a planned project; just “Hey. I like this one.” The last one was Icarus in May 2025 (and he’s borderline because he was the result of a breeding project in his parent clan, though I fully regened him).
- Gyrfalcon (Jan 9, free) [g1]: female fathom | blackberry chorus | clay marbled | ginger peacock
- [originally: triple basic bog]
- first project of 2026!
- me: makes it through NotN without acquiring any nocs
- order: hatches bog egg
- me: o.o
- this was an important addition to the brown-and-purple club. both of our existing members (Tank and Ruu) are tan with pastel purple, so complementing them with a darker/richer palette is just logical.
- Egg (Jan 17, 8g): hatchling imperial | nightshade boa | rose choir | obsidian capsule
- [originally: falcon/butterfly/ghost]
- A Project Robin egg! I’ve been following this project since it started in June 2024, and today an egg came up that I liked enough to impulse buy.
Hatched: (1)
- Caerwyn (Jan 5) [g3]: male aether | abyss basic | clay flair | abyss points
- [lineage: Renoir x Sylvain] [Razanei g3]
- [originally: skydancer | starmap | flair | runes]
- Got this skin several months ago for a Renoir/Sylvain kid. But their kids were selling for 50g each, so I decided to wait until we got a male who didn’t sell. Here we are!
De-acquired: (1)
Chelic (bog, layered grasps): I like the idea of a Cachexia/Scream fandragon better than the dragon herself. I could do better than this design-wise.
