There goes my dingbats savings.

Never liked the chimaeras, loved the hippogriff and phoenix. Estarra, you are ruining my downsizing of my beasts. Back up to four again... hippogriff, turtle, eagle, phoenix. Bah!

I have a custom beast, a thunderbird, a nightmare, a chimaera, a snow phoenix, and a hippogriff. I used to have a mammoth but it ded. I was doing well with holding back on getting more because it sucks my funds dry, but I just spent 75 dingbats on two beasts, so I'm going to say I failed spectacularly on that front.

I'm debating whether or not I want to just save myself the hassle and save for four collars and then get a custom pet... or what. :| I should be amazing and sink some serious cash into converting all of them. xD

I'd collar any beast I bought with dingbats, just because the dingbats alone were a pretty big investment and you don't want to end up losing the beast.

I'd prolly collar a turtle/thunderbird/etc too just for fun.

It never fails, every time a Divine hamster hunt begins, CT is innundated with "OH GODS NO DON'T RELEASE SQUIBBLES" type pleas.

The rare sight of a young snow phoenix is resplendent and shimmering, his crystalline plumage
refracting rainbows amidst numerous facets and edges. Snow swirls in eddying patterns about his
slender, swan-like frame, chilling his glacial body and sharp feathers with fractals of frost that
disappear in a whisper. Still, icy plumes crest and flare upon the avian's forehead like a crown of
icicles. Luminescent blue eyes gaze with a chilled impassiveness, a cold demeanour that is regal and
dignified. As the phoenix beats his slender wings, cold winds are born that drive the temperature to
plummet dramatically.

I just...

I love my beasts. I don't care how impractical having four is; raising beasts is a massive part of my life in Lusternia. (and wasting soooo much zimoru!) So while others say that having beasts and collaring more than one is a waste, I see it as an investment for a way to keep something that has brought so much joy to me in the end. I get sad when I think that I might lose one of the ones I have, even though I could easily (well, I have a hippogriff and now snow phoenix that I'd have to buy with dingbats again) get another.
