User blog:Nyastara/New Lumina Dragon Sprite Discovered

Hello there,

after a user (scroll name Lunirata, thank you so much for adding this! *hugs and kisses to you*) mentioned on the Lumina article, that after they bred a Lumina Dragon to a Turpentine Dragon, their Lumina changed its color, I was very suspicious if this was true (even with the provided link to the dragons page).

So I went to my scroll and bred my Luminas to my Turpentines and guess what? Yeah, I now have 7 scaleless/poisoned Luminas on my scroll. ^_^;

Lumina dragons change color after they got bred to Turpentine dragons. This may be a reaction to the mildy toxic oil, the Turpentines are covered with and which burns to the touch and can cause illnesses in anyone who ingests it. And since the Luminas description states that, ''"if one of their scales has so much as a scratch or a defect, they'll remove it. Luckily, their scales grow back quickly, and each new growth is more beautiful than the last." '', their color change could indeed mean, that they remove their scales as a precaution to preserve themselves form any kind of harm.

For now it's not known:
 * If the color of the adult Luminas will change back or is going to be permanent.
 * Since their description states that, "if one of their scales has so much as a scratch or a defect, they'll remove it. Luckily, their scales grow back quickly, and each new growth is more beautiful than the last.", it could only be temporary color change.


 * If bred Lumina eggs of a "Lumina x Turpentine" couple are affected by this and will hatch into scaleless/poisoned Luminas.
 * My Lumina x Turpentine "orgy" left me with two Lumina eggs (and one Turpentine), which I incubated and influenced just in case they might hatch as scaleless/poisoned hatchlings. ;)
