Xocoatl Dragon

Xocoatl Dragons were a female-only breed released on February 14, 2023 as part of the 2023 Valentine's Day event. As a limited-release dragon, they can only produce more Xocoatl eggs during a short window before the Valentine's Day holiday. While still capable of breeding throughout the year, they will always produce eggs of their mate's breed outside the holiday season. Xocoatl Dragons are limited to 2 cave-born dragons per scroll.

Hatchling

 * Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It is incredibly shy, but can be bribed with sweet treats.

Mature hatchling
''Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It is incredibly shy, but can be bribed with sweet treats.''

''And look! It’s gotten bigger and more energetic. It must be close to maturing.''

Adult
''Xocoatl Dragons are an incredibly shy and reclusive breed, preferring the company of small family units or solitude far from the watchful eye of outsiders throughout most of the year. However, Xocoatl Dragons welcome the approaching spring with an unusual giddiness, celebrating the shift towards warmer weather by warming the hearts of strangers and loved ones alike. A Xocoatl Dragon during this time will go to great lengths to perform acts of kindness and offer gifts for any that may encounter them, be they dragon, human, or other. This infectious joy is hard to resist by even the darkest of hearts, and individuals report finding themselves paying these kind acts forward. Villages and settlements with the fortune to experience the presence of a Xocoatl Dragon will often celebrate with festivals and music, providing opportunity for all manner of friends, family, and couples to celebrate. During this time, many leave chocolate offerings for Xocoatls as an expression of gratitude, which has led to the sharing of chocolate as a custom conveying love and friendship.''
