A lone Shalaya greets your entry to this place. The dream seer.. They welcome you to the Hall of Dreams warmly; they've been awaiting your arrival. The Draconic leads as much as they follow, trailing beside your every step. And yet, you feel they guide your path. Do not fret; they are here to ensure your safety, to watch as you rest and lay witness to the shape which your dreams take.
This place that you've happened upon is a one quite unlike any other.
Soothing.
Comfortable.
Warm.
There is a sense of tranquility that could calm the most fiery of tempers or ravaging inner storms.
Many doors line this marble hall, and each one gives you a sense of familiarity. You might open the one that feels just right, seeing a reflection of your own bedroom within. The lamp is dim, the blinds are shut, and your eyes feel heavy.. A comfortable place to rest sure, but is it where you dream?
The next door may lead to a reading nook of a study, a window facing out to the rainstorm beyond. And the next opens unto a forest clearing, birds chirping thier sweet songs.
There is no wrong place to choose.
What will hatch from your dream..? |

Hatching a Draconic Dreaming Egg...
Tell the story about a dream of yours. Actual or made up, a dream is a dream. Is it something that happened in your sleep? Perhaps a dream of the future you would like to live life in. Maybe the dream of somebody else, taken as your own..? Write up a minimum of 150 words to a maximum of 500 words to describe the dream itself. You may detail it from beginning to end.. Or maybe a particular segment that clings to your memory the most. A part from here, a part from there? Dreams do not always flow with the same rules as lives. Remember, tell a dream - not a nightmare. Only monsters are born of nightmares.
You may use up to 3 images to help visualize certain aspects of your dream, such as colors, shapes, and scenes. Photos and abstract art are permitted. Perhaps you strongly remember the image of a dolphin within a lagoon, or the sight of wildfire blazing across a bushland. Or the color blue. Simply spots? The images do not need to correlate directly with something described in your story, though it should be implied in some form or another. After all, what place does the image of a raging typhoon have in a dream about exploring an underground cavern of glimmering crystals..?
In addition to telling the story of your dream, you may more directly describe some aspects of the dragon within your dreaming egg.. This being; Body type, affinity, and nature. One word each. Two words is a stretch and the absolute limit. You've told your dream already, after all. How these descriptions affect what hatches from the egg may be immediately evident or more vague.
How you define each of these words is up to you. Noodle is as much as a body type as cup is. Is spontaneous an affinity? If for you it is, then it is. Your definition may be more traditional or as abstract as you desire. Bear in mind that the tides of chaos certainly do favor those who do not follow the same guides as everyone else.
Finally, you may tell the name of the exact individual which resides within this egg. Not the species borne, but the sole name of the being who will be yours. If you do not have a name, nothing will hatch.
Dreams are volatile. Fleeting. Sometimes repeating. Sometimes mistaken. As such, the time it takes for your dreaming egg to hatch can be anywhere from a few days to a month. But once the dream has been witnessed by it, surely it will hatch in due time.
When your egg finally hatches, it will birth a new species of Draconic with it. However, that which hatches from your egg will be truly and solely yours. Immediately upon hatching, the Draconic within will be bonded to you.. As such, a character may only ever hatch a single dreaming egg.. |

Condensed How-To:
- Purchase a Draconic Dreaming Egg (45$) from Sanctuary
- Create a new thread here with your egg.
- Roleplay a scenario in which your character either tells their dream to the seer or egg, or is actively dreaming. Or something else along those lines.
- The actual dream part of your post must be clearly defined and 150 to 500 words. - At any point, one/two word descriptions of the body type, affinity, and nature of the draconic should be described, as well as its name.
- Alternatively, you may list them at the bottom of your post. - At any point, up to three images may be linked using a word (or words) in your post.
- Alternatively, you may list the images at the bottom. - Wait patiently for the egg to hatch...
- A reply will be made to your post when your egg hatches!
Notes Regarding Dreaming Eggs:
The draconic individual hatched from your egg will have unique coloring.
Your hatchling grow with time, about 1 month (30 days) after hatching. You may not request to grow it yourself.
Your hatchling is immediately bonded to your character.
The Draconic species born from your dreaming egg will be made available for adoption in the Rookery when your hatchling matures.
Dreaming Egg Draconics are created by Xentus. You may not request a different artist.
