History Characters / FlightRising

* ElementalEyeColors: Like their respective flights, the deities have eye colors that match their elements. Gladeekeeper's the nature deity's eyes are green because of her GreenThumb powers, but Windsinger the wind god's eyes are light green because WindIsGreen, the list goes on.

!!Gaolers
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/breed_gaoler.png]]
The Icewarden's first creations. Gaolers dwell in the heart of ice territory, guarding the various creatures therein, and have kept to themselves until an unfortunate band of ice dragons stumbled upon them. Sensing shade corruption upon the intruders, the Gaolers realized their duty to contain this corruption requires them to emerge into the wider world once more.

* GameplayAndStorySegregation: Their crests are actually not based on gender. According to their encyclopedia page, the number of crests strongly varies by individual. This was further explained in a [[https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/frd/1983274#post_22693979 forum post by one of the developers]] that even the head ''and'' cheek fins can differentiate between Bogsneaks.

* FeatheredDragons: The Pinions gene gives them some coarse feathers along their legs and wings. Also doubles as a bit of irony since they're a flightless breed and their introductory story has a Gaoler mock an ice Skydancer, a very feathery dragon, for not "befitting the Icewarden's grand design". Must be awkward meeting Gaolers with this gene now.

* NonLinearCharacter: Elder Aurabora have no understanding of linear time, existing permenantly within the Loop, and became extremely distressed when their hatchlings after they started being born experiencing it.

!!Banescales
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/image_612.png]]
The Flamecaller’s first creations. They were thought to be extinct after a war with the Gaolers, but their [[LastOfHisKind last clutch of eggs]] were later discovered to be preserved in the ice.

* DeathFromAbove: As wyverns, they prefer to attack from the sky and can rain down anything from fireballs to molten lava.
* FeatheredDragons: Not all of them, but the Plumage tertiary gene gives Banescales optional feathers. Perhaps fitting, since their younger siblings are the feathered Coatl breed.
* HeroicSacrifice: The parents of the last surviving Banescale eggs sacrificed themselves to preserve their eggs until it would be safe for them to hatch.
* OurWyvernsAreDifferent: They are the first ancient breed to truly break the mold in terms of body type, lacking front limbs entirely. Also they like to communicate by singing. They are also capable of sprouting feathers with the Plumage gene, and can have a total of four wings if the Gliders gene is applied to them.
* WarriorPoet: An extremely prideful example. The original Banescale society that was slain loved songs, even ones mocking their enemies like the Gaolers since they called them “unworthy and frail” in one. Unfortunately, their love for song was the only thing they could leave behind for their unborn hatchlings: singing out their hopes that they would fly free one day and not repeat their mistakes.

!!Gaolers
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/breed_gaoler.png]]
The Icewarden's first creations. Gaolers dwell in the heart of ice territory, guarding the various creatures therein, and have kept to themselves until an unfortunate band of ice dragons stumbled upon them. Sensing shade corruption upon the intruders, the Gaolers realized their duty to contain this corruption requires them to emerge into the wider world once more.

An Abberation who swaps modern genes for their ancient counterparts.

* ShaggyDogStory: In ''After Orbit'', we follow three Aethers from the current generation who accidentally cause the ship to begin to plummet, alongside the original captain of the Astrolab's personal log chronicling the destruction of all but one of its user manuals. The three realize if they can find the last copy preserved by their clan, they can stop the crash. They find and successfully open the box in the nick of time, only...
--->'''Cosmo''': ''I ate it. I’m sorry.''

* FeatheredDragons: They sport a very thick, feathery mane across the neck of each head that loosely resembles the plumage of Bearded Vultures.

!!Higgins
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/higgens.png]]
->"...It seems we are no longer alone. My most enthusiastic greetings, good dragon... How may we assist you in this year's Night of the Nocturne? It seems that we are yet again tasked with overseeing your stay...If you require new garments or enchanted objects, we have those in abundance...Those that won't consume or replace you can be found alongside those that will. It's really quite simple...We're sure you won't have any difficulty spending your gold, gems, or items found during the long night."

A Nocturne whose shop is active for the duration of Night of the Nocturne, and includes all Swipp trades, treasure marketplace, and gem marketplace items from previous years.

* FeatheredDragons: They sport a very thick, feathery mane across the neck of each head that loosely resembles the plumage of Bearded Vultures.

* LightEmUp: It's her element.

%%* GenkiGirl: Female spiral dragons.
%%* {{Keet}}: Male spiral dragons.

%%* PowerOfTheSun

* {{Bishonen}}: The males are as much this as a dragon can be.

!! Undertide
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/imbluedabadeedabadidabadee.png]]
The Tidelord's first children who became estranged from him, choosing to move down into the deepest depths of the ocean. Having recently realized the Tidelord's gone missing, they emerged to help join the search for their patriarch.

* {{Atlantis}}: They live in an underwater city with a mermaid-like civilization that was thought to be lost by most other Maren, and the city itself could be argued to be a utopia where dragons and abyssal Maren live in harmony. It was rendered mostly inaccessible to other Maren and even other water dragons due to the high water pressure.
* KrakenAndLeviathan: Have elements of both, being massive sea dragons. One of their unique genes gives them tentacles.
* MakingASplash: They're the first creations of the Water god.
* SeaSerpents: They have no limbs, only wing-like fins.

!!Veilspuns
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/veilspun_dragons.png]]
The Shadowbinder's first creations. For a time, they largely lived hidden in the darker parts of Wispwillow Grove, and the Shadow flight used tales of dragons being spirited away or cursed by them as a way to warn their kin away from territory where they were thought to lurk. Recently, the activation of the portals has caused them to come back out of the woodwork and they now roam Sornieth out in the open.

* TooManyMouths: Appears to be nothing ''but'' mouths. Fitting for a being that wants only to devour magic.

* StrongerWithAge: While largely phyiscal fighters, older Guardians tend to become more magically-powerful over time and start to include magic in combat thanks to how their inner magic reserve develops.

* {{Dracolich}}: Emperors, multiheaded fusions of Imperial corpses that are nigh-impossible to defeat.

* MayflyDecemberFriendship: An inevitability given how Imperials can live anywhere between ''ten years'' to several centuries and tend to live with other dragons of different species, which do not have this longetivity issue.

* CallARabbitASmeerp: Aethers enjoy coming up with overly-complicated names for various objects in their lairs, such as calling the "entrance" a "environmental delineating threshhold" or a "spatula" a "nutrient rotation device".

* MonstrousMandibles: One of their unique linebreaker genes gives them a large, sharp mandible.

* SeaSerpents: They have no limbs, only winglike fins.

* FairyDragons: Arguably fit the bill even better than Fae dragons: they're another very small breed noted for being powerful mages, but they also have insectoid wings and an insectoid, swarming lifestyle.

* AchievementsSystem: His shop is where you redeem currency for the updated achivements system, added to commemorate the site's 10th anniversary.

* OddNameOut: Acclaimed Achivements Association is the only shop that isn't named after the shopkeeper, although Avery's name is still aliterative.

* OddOneOut: Acclaimed Achivements Association is the only shop that isn't named after the shopkeeper, although Avery's name is still aliterative.

!!Baldwin
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/image_7744.png]]
->"Greetings, apprentice! Some dragons say that alchemy is a science, but I know that it's an art, and that the best art is spontaneous! That's where you come in. This brew is nearing completion, but it needs a little ''something'' to give it an extra kick!"

An old Bogsneak who runs Baldwin's Bubbling Brew, the alchemy lot at the trading post. He takes on players as apprentices to learn the craft. Formerly a Pearlcatcher, he was transformed after a lightning bolt struck his cauldron while he was brewing a potion.

* TwentyBearAsses: Some of Baldwin's recipes require items gained from Coliseum enemies.
* AlchemyIsMagic: Baldwin can render just about anything down into various goos, and from them (with occasional other ingredients) create results that bear little resemblance to the components.
* AlliterativeName: Baldwin's Bubbling Brew.
* MagicCauldron: He uses one for his brews, of course.
* SlowTransformation: Poor Baldwin went through one when lightning struck a potion he was working on, slowly tuning him into a Bogsneak.
* TragicKeepsake It is unknown if Baldwin views his transformation into a Bogsneak as "tragic" but he still has his pearl from when he was a Pearlcatcher. He keeps it on his shelf.

!!Crim
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/image_8988.png]]

->"I love collecting. Like, '''really love collecting'''. Heh, sometimes I feel like I just can't stop! My brother Pinkerton might tell you it's a sickness, but I like to call it a hobby."

Crim is a Tundra dragon who's main deal is collecting items. What items? Anything and everything! Her requests cycle in groups of five by the hour, but include everything from trash to rare items, familiars, and apparel. She does offer a reward of treasure, though. She has a brother named Pinkerton.

* AlliterativeName: Crim's Collection Cart.
* CollectorOfTheStrange: Given the randomized nature of her requests, some items definitely suggest this. There are also [[http://flightrising.tumblr.com/post/53777487979/what-happened-to-pinkertons-left-horn rumors]] that she may have taken Pinkerton's missing horn for her collection.
* DragonHoard: A completely indiscriminate one to the point where it’s likened to a real life hoarding disorder. Pinkerton complains of how badly it's clogged their lair.

!!Edgar, Pearl, and Spitfire
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/image_2524.png]]
Edgar, Pearl, and Spitfire are courier dragons. They're the ones who deliver items bought from the auction house, gems or treasure earned when other players purchase your auctions, or alert you when one of your auctions has expired. Edgar also appears on the 404 page, while Pearl appears on the page for buying gems.

* HasTwoMommies: Gender-inversion. Technically, he was created by Windsinger and Tidelord fighting but they don’t seem to be considered parents.

* JunkRare: Gravel became this on her holiday in 2023. She's not only trading items for gravel, but also selling a new item--costing 401 gravel.
