Magic Learning

Magic Learning follows regular activity rules for art requirements.

Tier I

Elemental magic makes up the core of every creature in the world…but especially dragons! Mastering magic helps dragons in battle, daily work, and even breeding. Cross-bred dragons can only achieve total mastery of a single element. Their other element(s) will only reach tier three. Dragons with Elemental Anomaly will learn the first tier of that element’s magic, but no further.

Available to level 1 dragons. Draw your dragon using an element for the first time. Remember that they can only learn magic of their own element (with the exception of Day and Night dragons). Here are some low-level spell ideas to give you an idea of what to draw. Look at the individual element pages to learn more about that element’s magic!

  • Light – Glamour, illusion, charm
  • Fire – Explosions, warming light, pyromancy
  • Jungle – Plant growth, curses, cures
  • Thunder – Machine/construct manipulation, electric discharges, rune magic
  • Earth – Earth/ground manipulation, ridiculous feats of strength, talking to animals
  • Ocean – Visions of the future, healing magic, liquid merging
  • Storm – Ice, lightning, water, and/or wind magic on a small scale that causes chaos
  • Wind – Inspirational magic through song or dance, levitating, translation
  • Dark – Seeing ghosts, seeing through darkness, shapeshifting
  • Metal – Metal manipulation, aura reading, telepathy

Tier II

Elemental magic makes up the core of every creature in the world…but especially dragons! Mastering magic helps dragons in battle, daily work, and even breeding. Cross-bred dragons can only achieve total mastery of a single element. Their other element(s) will only reach tier three.

Available to level two dragons. Throughout your activities and ARs, depict your dragon using the magic element it is trying to level up. Once your dragon has used corresponding magic in 5 pieces of art, they may achieve this tier. Markings of the corresponding element now have a greater chance of dropping during breeding. They may only learn one type of magic per image (or per 600 words in writing). When you are ready to advance in magic, put all five links in the comment section of the prompt and submit!

Tier III

Available to level three dragons.  This must be its own submission and cannot be used as an activity image, courtship image, and so on.

Tier IV

Available to level four dragons. This must be its own submission and cannot be used as an activity image, courtship image, and so on. By now, you should have a pretty good understanding of how the magic for your element works! In order to unlock the last stage of magic, your dragon must also have a Rider. Depict your Rider channeling or enhancing the magic that your dragon was blessed with. The dragon must be present. This prompt will always succeed. Note that Riders can help with any sort of magic, but magic outside of their Elemental Specialty can only be done alongside their dragon. Furthermore, a Rider must undergo these rites again for each dragon that wants to unlock their full potential–even if the Rider has learned that magic already. A dragon who has undergone rites with their Rider may receive elemental attributes on their import matching the element of the mastered magic. How this displays is up to you. It is recommended that you use your free level 5 import change to add these. Markings of the corresponding element now have an even greater chance of dropping during breeding.
