It's a young eagle, which means you get to feed it and see how it turns out. Mine's the same way. Although, I don't really need the eagle any more, since I gave into Estarra's master plan and just bought a custom beast.

If you can get Estarra to remove the collar and return the credits to me, you can have him. tongue.gif

Not the easy way. Not sure if there is a hard way.

I Understand that beasts with more abilities will naturally have to cost more... But why something like 80,000 gold as the lowest for this new set? I'd personally love to get a pegasus and/or eagle, if they weren't so expensive that I could get to thrones in artisan with that same gold.

Anybody else agree with me here? I'm sure I'm not alone!

Most of these were considered Legendary Mounts back in the old riding system and needed near-Trans to be mounted, and I have a feeling the eagles were even more expensive back then. It's not too hard to save up the money!
Unknown2009-05-27 13:37:33
The prices are calculated from a base cost plus a fixed cost per train for the inherent abilities. So, the better the inherent abilities, the more expensive the beast.

Gold is easily earned (by most) in Lusternia, and this is really just one of many gold sinks to help balance things out.

(P.S. I just reduced the price of my old stallion by quite a bit, if anyone's looking for a good influencing beast!)

Perched nearby, a giant feral eagle searches her surroundings with thoughtful
eyes of deep blue.

While slightly smaller than her male counterpart, this giant feral eagle still
radiates an aura of majesty as she spreads her massive wings of black feathers.
Missing nothing, her thoughtful eyes of deep blue constantly scan the
surroundings with a knowing gaze that draws in all she sees. Her body still
boasts an impressive physique and size, fully capable of matching her male
counterpart in hunting down large prey such as moose and cows. She is called
'Atavia.'

I want to train a new beast for a pretty desc, but I'm way too lazy and frustrated at Beastmastery right now.
Richter2009-06-09 01:37:17
I turned my pet into a beast, and this is the first I've used him as such. I am going to try influencing, so I went all out on spirit.

p morphling
This shadowy morphling possesses the form of a demonic-looking cat. Save for two
red eyes, this beast is black as the night that spawned it. It has what appears
to be a coat of black fur, but upon closer inspection, one notices that is flows
slowly like water, shifting shape every few seconds. Pearl-white teeth are
visible when its large mouth is opened, a startling contrast to the rest of its
body. Massive paws lend support to the creature, and also partially conceal
long, deadly claws. Never able to keep still, the cat paces back and forth,
phasing in and out of view.
Nocturne, the morphling has an air of extreme strength.
He weighs about 600 pounds.
His feedbag is nearly full and he is looking quite nourished.
He is loyal to Archon Richter Carthan.
Nocturne, the morphling is holding:
"platter165100"          a platter of sauteed beef cutlets
"licorice111042"         a black licorice wheel
"candy114934"            a rice-paper wrapped candy

You tell Nocturne, the morphling, "Dragon"
Nocturne, the morphling shudders and emits a low growl, its shape changing and
getting larger. Its head starts to elongate and the teeth grow larger, while the
rest of the body doubles in size. Twisting from side to side, the morphling's
tail grows thicker and a barbed arrow-like growth appears on the end. Lastly, a
shimmering black scale appears on its back, follow by another, then dozens more,
to cover its entire body. Clearly out of breath, the morphling settles down,
settling on the shape of a large, black dragon.

p morphling
This shadowy morphling possesses the form of a demonic-looking dragon. Save for
two red eyes, this beast is black as the night that spawned it. On its back are
many black, shiny scales, presumably affording some protection. Pearl white
teeth are visible when it's large mouth is open, with large wicked fangs in the
front, a startling contrast to the rest of its body. Massive feet lend support
to the creature, and end in partially concealed claws. The morphling carries
itself with a regal air, sitting quite still, and occasionally phasing in and
out of view.

You tell Nocturne, the morphling, "Undragon"
Nocturne, the morphling closes its eyes and starts to shrink in size. Several
black scales start to disappear, followed by the rest, leaving a flowing,
water-like skin. The spike on its tail shrinks and disappears, and the entire
tail grows shorter and smoother. The transformation complete, the morphling
opens its eyes to a dark feline form.

Many times larger than the average eagle, this enormous specimen of a giant eagle is fully capable of hunting down and carrying off the largest Ackleberry cow. His eyes of royal blue search the ground with a piercing gaze that misses nothing. Spreading his bronze wings, the giant eagle gives off an aura of majesty from his very bearing, which speaks of travels throughout all of Lusternia and beyond. He is called 'Highfeather.'

a fat war goat with leathery wings

Gnawing on the leather bit of her reins, a fat, wary war goat with leathery wings waits here.

This fat goat is a strong, muscled creature with a dirty, knotted fleece and leathery wings. Yellow eyes gleam wary above her protruding snout, and a straggly beard hangs about her chin. Sniffing the air, the goat chews down on the bit of the reins with her jaw line twitching, covered in filthy bits of wiry hair, drool soaked and stained. A worn leather saddle has been fitted securely beneath the goat's shoulders, and barbed stirrups dangle from it. She is called 'Juanita.'



Not sure if I love her or hate her yet XD
