The Choosing has been completed. Participants may now commence their entries.
Main Competiton deadline: DECEMBER 17th!
SO by now you have probably all been wondering what the hell Slay and I are up to HERE IS YOUR ANSWER! We have been in the process of creating a dragon chase.Since we want people that are serious about this (cause we have a lot of prizes on the line here!) we are gonna do a pre registration.
Pre-Registration (Deadline: 13th November) LAST EXTENSION!
To register you and your horse we are gonna require an arrival picture and we are giving you 2 weeks to finish it. The arrival is at my stables High Tides Stables ANY HORSE/PONY BREED ALLOWED!
Entrant List - Grand Dragon Chase
Handler is not necessarily required in the picture but if they could be checking in with Siranni or Jose that would be a nice little bonus (Yes we do have bonuses; drawing the people, pets, extra images or just going totally overboard you know?). But your horse IS required in the image. At least half the horse must be visible but if your horse is still in the trailer it's head sticking out will suffice but then you have to draw the handler.
CHOICE OF LOCATIONS:
You may draw your pre-registration image in the following locations;
Your horse being unloaded from the trailer; UNLOADING ZONE
Your horse in a guest stall; MARE OR STALLION STABLE DEPENDING ON GENDER
Your horse in the guest paddock; GUEST PADDOCK
Information to be included in the pre-registration:
Horse Name:
Rider Name:
Horse Reference:
Horse Age:
Rider's Age:
Horse Breed:
Stable Name:
Country:
Riders do not need to have a ref.

RULES FOR MAIN COMPETITION:
General Rules:
Horses must be experienced and riders as well. Not necessarily in Dragon Chasing but in team work. So minimum age for horses is 6 and minimum rider age is 20.
No harming any dragons. Or other people and their mounts unless you have something agreed.
One horse per competition entry.
NO LINEARTS/PREMADE BASES
NO PHOTOMANIPS (background ect... sorry but you can't manip these dragons :/)
Extra images do gain extra points.
Allowed Powers:
Any breed of horse/pony is permitted.
Wings can be used for those horses going after dragons that can fly (cause if you get stuck 300 feet underneath the dragon weeeeeeelllll you won't get very far now will you?).
Speed enhancements can be used but at a toned down rate.
Powers that can disable senses and disorient are not permitted. Powers that can alter time and space are not permitted. Basically any powers not in the allowed section are NOT permitted and will result in disqualification.
How is the Grand Dragon Chase supposed to work?
Well here is how it is gonna go down. After pre-registration there will be a Choosing. This is where you will learn what dragon you will be required to tag. The Choosing will be on the beach of HTS at night. The following morning horses and handlers will be transported by boat to the island of Xygarley where they will have one day to settle down and prepare.
The morning of the Chase handlers and riders will be given the necessary Dragon Chasing equipment required in the Chase. The equipment consists of a suit of light material that is temperature regulated to protect riders from extreme temperatures and allow them flexibility to handle the electronic tag gun. The suit also matches your stables colours Riders will also receive goggles to protect their eyes from the environment and have electronic light sensors for optimal visibility. (Helmet and boots must be supplied by the rider). Next they will receive a tag gun. The dragons will be wearing an electronic collar that has sensor points throughout the dragon's body. (You riders can only see the collar). If your gun's laser sensor connects with a sensor point you get a point The successful hits will be sent to the judges database.
At the end of the day the team that collects the most points wins.
Riders and their horses will depart right after lunch with ample food and equipment for the duration of the chase which is 72 hours. (Why you might ask? Cause the island of Xygarley is seriously huge and just finding your dragon will be one hell of a challenge). Though you will have 4 weeks to do the actual image. Also people can be chasing the same dragon because we might have a lot of entrants
Horse Equipment:
Leg wraps are highly recommended. Horses will be supplied with a light material blanket that can monitor temperatures like the rider's suit. This will eliminate the need for a saddle pad but you can have one if you want. You will have equipment to carry (food, map, compass, water, ect...) so keep that in mind. Rest of the horses tack can be it's normal tack. Ohhh and you might want to either braid your horse's mane or cut it short.
Blanket Example:
Meet the Dragons:
Foliage
Scvadrei
Sea Grass
Fzar
Leader of Light
Moss Monster
Raising the Pheonix
Lord of the Deranged
Luscious Lulu

Checking in.
Just checking in cause I apparently have missed a lot. Things I know I need to do and am working on slowly. EAR - complete certificates - create some new foals - ref my own damn foal Padros - sort all the transfer notes and answer them - finish verifiying registration on designs - work on redesigns - upload to ADMIN account - remake all journals I have lots of refs needing doing.... sigh...
My absence.
I’m very sorry for abandoning DA. My life unraveled and I couldn’t handle it. Still can’t. I don’t make things public but i feel i need to justify some stuff a bit. So basically.. my mom took off at the end of May. Left without saying anything. My dad was wrecked and us too. Basically I worked for my mom and my dad. Still do. Cept i have my moms work to cover now too. My dad went to therapy and tried and did everything she asked to get her back. She came back for a whole week and left again. Didn’t even try to get back with my dad. No one could understand it. Then little things we noticed and realized started clicking together. She was cheating on my dad. So one night aka tonight. We followed her. Yes not the best thing to do but we had to know. Every time she was confronted she denied everything. So we did this and found out it was the guy that we suspected. For a long time. And she was never honest with us. i still care about my parents dearly. But I cannot handle that this
My Disappearance
Hi.
So life sucks right now.
I have been trying to get on to take care of things but even that is hard. I've enough drama in my life right now that I don't feel like going into details with because I keep wishing I could wake up and this wasn't happening.
The rabbits are fine. Comet it is fine.
I'm not fine. I don't have the heart or the energy for literally anything. If I'm silent for awhile more don't worry about me. I'll sort my stuff out eventually. Not that I'd be missed much anyways.
So this very much destroyed my show plans. Sorry to the people I wanted to support by entering their shows. I can't seem to bring myself to do an entr
