Occavatra -> =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Receives more Firepower! (2/6/2017 18:43:57)

Good evening, fellow information seekers. You know me as an AdventureQuest Worlds moderator, EpicDuel guest artist, and the quiet guy who usually shelves information in the DF Pedia on Friday nights and some weekends, but starting today, I've taken the honors to rise up as an ArchKnight to lend the encyclopedia my fiery expertise and knowledge of DragonFable's world as well adding your fascinating discoveries as necessary. Since I'm new here, I'm happy to answer up to seven questions you have for me. As usual, the Universal Forum Rules apply before posting anything. I'll answer each whenever I get a chance. Have a good time.

I'll be answering your questions in this font, size, and color.




Gingkage -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (2/6/2017 18:48:27)

Doc-Occ! Welcome aboard. I knew this would happen eventually (thought it had happened a while ago and was surprised when I was wrong >.>)

Hm... Questions.

If you could have any one thing from any book, movie, or TV show (anime/manga count), what would it be?
That's a tough one, honestly. I'd love to have a V.F.D. spyglass from A Series of Unfortunate Events. The golden color and the typographic style on the initials seem really intriguing.

That's my customary question, now for my customary gift.

*holds out a box* Inside this box is an infinite supply of one thing, and one thing only. What's in it?
I can see lots and lots of sapphires in that box you have to offer. They sparkle like the ocean on a day with clear skies.

Yea, I'm boring, so that's all I got. Congrats again, and I'm glad to have you as part of the AK team!
Thank you, Gingkage. I'll do my best. It's still a lot to process in one day, but I'm sure I'll do fine.




Starflame13 -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (2/6/2017 19:37:18)

Hey there Occa! Huge congratz on your new promotion :D

Onto a few questions!

1) If you could have any animal as a pet, with the knowledge that it came house trained, what would it be?
A cat or a moglin would be suitable companions to share company with, but I prefer a dragon as a traveling companion.

2) Favorite saga of DF so far?
By far, the Final 13th was my favorite saga on DragonFable. It was amazing to see DF come so far since we destroyed the forces of darkness for the first time and we proved that light does triumph over darkness. It felt like yesterday since the Final 13th was in the making.

3) Which would you rather deal with, 100 duck-sized horses or 1 horse-sized duck?
Probably a horse-sized duck so I'd have an excuse to go for a ride with it across Falconreach Bay.

Congratulations again, and make sure they don't overwork you TOO much :P Take care!
Thank you, Starflame. I'll do my best to help keep the encyclopedia nice and organized.




Battle Elf -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (2/6/2017 20:08:40)

Wow, who's this guy?
Hey, Battle Elf. We've met before in the Frozen Northlands...on another planet? Anyway, it's good to see you on here.

I here you like to make art things.
Your sources are accurate. I have a Deviantart portfolio and an art gallery on the DFGD if you want to check both of them out.

Do you ever feel the need to praise the sun?
No, not really. My pyrokinesis is more than enough to praise.

Are you allergic to anything?
No, not at all. I'm fortunately allergy-free. It's a gift.

Spirit vegetable?
A cauliflower would be my spirit vegetable. I love to have them on my plate raw.

If you had to take a bath in a tub full of condiments, what condiment would you choose?
Is bubble gum a condiment? I heard it's sticky and hard to navigate around in.

Congrats man! Good luck!
Thank you so much, Battle Elf. I'll do my best.




Death snake1 -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (2/6/2017 20:30:16)

*Waves to Occa*
*waves back to you from afar.*

So, you now have some nice, fancy chains? How do they feel?
What are these chains you speak of? I will not let them bind me as a prisoner.

Have you after exploring my lab, have you figured out why there was a section with stairs?
Maybe because the seniors didn't have the budget for a working elevator? Stairs are the cheapest gym you can find anywhere.

So, after visiting my lab, if you had to pick up any type of disease that you could cure, which one would it be?
I would ultimately find a cure to most forms of cancer. That dreadful monster has claimed too many lives.

Final question, and a serious one, what got you into playing DF and working for the pedia?
I found out about DragonFable when I was in middle school. I was playing AQC at the time my little brother first showed me. What got me to stay were the meaningful storylines and the beautiful weapon, NPC, and location art that came to captivate me to this day. What got me into the pedia was two years ago when Melissa4Bella snuck an announcement in the Design Notes around the time Ravenloss was unvoided. (I wasn't an AQW moderator at the time) I decided to join the pedia since I've been a frequent visitor to look up an item that would be suitable for my tastes and level. Then boom! I've been posting new discoveries about DragonFable's world since then.

Hope you have fun, and enjoy the work!
Thanks, man. I'll be sure to enjoy myself on the Encyclopedia even more.




ergotth -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (2/6/2017 20:31:13)

congrats for joining the forum's big, crazy, kinda out-of-place and psychotic, but still very nice Family :D
Haha thanks, Ergo. Part of my job is to keep the DF Encyclopedia organized neatly like one big library. The craziness of my fellow teammates here doesn't compare to my adventures on DragonFable's Lore each week.

So...whats the meaning of life?
The meaning of life is that there is always conflict in our world. Although war can never be eradicated entirely, we must better ourselves so we can prepare for future conflicts by learning from the past. (Sepulchure, Wargoth/Warlic, Aspar, and Caitiff are enemies to learn from if you can put the lessons together.)

What do you think of me when I'm not threatening you with a painful death?
I think you are like a real brother to me who never passes the opportunity to share my excitement about DragonFable with me and talk about our accomplishments and the world around us.

Daleks or Cybermen?
I prefer the salt shakers you call Daleks.




Ĉon -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (2/6/2017 20:36:46)

Congrats on your promotion!
Thanks, man. It means a lot to me to receive the new title.

My one question is...why do you use Photobucket for image storage? I find it makes things rather difficult to access or reference!
Photobucket is one of the preferred sites used by those who contribute to the DF Encyclopedia. I chose that site when I first started helping out and that stuck to me since then. I do use Imgur whenever Photobucket is down for maintenance, though.




Asuka -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (2/7/2017 1:34:39)

ur still a nerd, nerd but is k, I still love ya. Gooood luck being here~
I am pretty much a nerd and it's good that labels don't matter. I care about you too, Asuka, and thank you.

That wasn't really a question though..Hmm now I have to actually think of one.
Alrighty. Ask away, man. I have answers shelved someplace.

Hmmm... Chocolate or Vanilla? (also whats the best way to gain exp?)
I prefer chocolate over vanilla when it comes to Dairy Queen. No contest needed. The best way to gain experience on DragonFable is to fight the big, bad titan monsters encountered on Lore. They are rare and tough, but the gold and experience that they drop when you win are worth it. During times of war, the opposing army consists of enemies and monsters that drops small amounts of experience that start to add up over time so keep an eye out for the next time Falconreach or another city is under attack.




docblade -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (2/8/2017 13:46:49)

Welcome. It is question time^^ Muahahaha...AHAHAHAHA.....ahem...
Thank you. It is good to finally be an ArchKnight of the Pedia. Go ahead and ask away.

First, how are your shackles?
As I said earlier, no shackles can hold this pyromancer. I go wherever the wind takes me and it has led me here.

Second, if you could become one of the DF classes in RL, which do you choose?
I would be a dragonlord in real-life. There are just so many dragons in our world that don't exist, but have yet to be discovered. Magic can only be real if you open your mind.

Third...do you think your Dragon is male/female/both/neither?
My dragon is actually male. He's docile and playful most of the time, but on the battlefield, he's as tough as my armor-crushing sword.

4th....Do you think Tomix is sane?
I don't know Tomix well enough to know how sane he can be, however, he is really collected and honest from what I heard. Over time, I have come to respect him as a legend on DragonFable.

6th If you could live in the world of DragonFable for the rest of all eternity, would you be a hero, a villain or something else?
I would be a hero forever and always. Lore is too broken and divided to have another villain further deepen the chasm that the Rose has created.

7....Whoops...I missed something...anyway, go on
What was it you missed if you don't mind me asking?

8. Would you support villains out of free will or if they force you to? *plays with the riddle Sceptre, grinning*
They'd have to do more than force to get me to support them. An inferno can only be spread, not contained. Caitiff would've done a better job to play that card on me.

9. That's it. Welcome to the madhouse. Cya *colors you pink, puts Cysero's left Sock under your helmet and unleash him towards you*
*speeds away while Cysero chases after me. My comrades just laugh themselves silly at the whole thing.* Thanks for the speedy welcome. I'll catch you later.

Signature removed. It's still not allowed in here, even for an MtAK in a 'Pedia forum as a blanket rule. Thanks for understanding.




DragonUltraMaster -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (2/8/2017 14:19:31)

Hiyas, new AK!
Hello there, DragonUltraMaster. It's good to see you here.

What do you think about jalapenos? and do you prefer red, yellow or green ones?
I have not had a jalapeno yet, but I heard from a team of heroes that they're enormously spicy. If I did have one, I prefer red.
Do you even like spicy food as my next question?
I don't mind spicy food such as chili and some types of soup. It really warms up the mouth depending the amount of spice in it.
WHAT IS 42????
42 is a number between 41 and 43. Compared to my algebra classes, 42 is an easier number to remember.

Make up a new meaning what D.U.M means below:
D.U.M. = Determined, Upbeat, Mature.

What is a good name?
A good name would have to be Lycaon in a Greek myth, which depicts a king who got turned into a wolf as a punishment for a cruel art.

Yeah, this is what I'll come with this time. I'm kinda tired so it's all just ranD.U.M!
Why do I have a strange feeling that I saw that coming, D.U.M.?

Oh btw, there's a color bomb. Can you disarm it in time? the time is clicking...
I can give it a try. Let's see what I can do to save Frostvale from the impending color explosion. *cracks fingers and gets to work.*

//D.U.M




NagisaXIkari -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (2/9/2017 3:38:41)

1. Is dialectical materialism the best thing ever?
It's most likely a source of evil as far as I know. Be careful when picking and choosing what to believe in.

2. Do you do things outside of the DF Encyclopedia?
I'm a moderator on AdventureQuest Worlds as well as assist Sora with item descriptions and with Lorepedia from time to time. The Ultimate Dragonlord Scythe is one of my favorite item descriptions that I wrote. I'm also an EpicDuel guest artist so I do study and practice my artistic skills almost every day. I also have some hobbies that I like to do such as going swimming, hiking, collecting crystals, and retro video games. In other words, I keep myself busy all the time when I'm not posting on the DF Encyclopedia.

3. There is a runaway trolley barreling down the railway tracks. Ahead, on the tracks, there are five people tied up and unable to move. The trolley is headed straight for them. You are standing some distance off in the train yard, next to a lever. If you pull this lever, the trolley will switch to a different set of tracks. However, you notice that there is one person on the side track. Do you pull the lever?
I'll pull the lever and sprint to push the one person out of the way before landing on the ground just next to the trolley tracks. Then I'll proceed to untie the five people in distress.

4. What do you think about cats?
I love cats a lot. They're adorable, adventurous, curious, and playful, which makes a housecat a unique type of feline. I do happen to have one brave kitty that's a brown tiger and I spend lots of my homework time with her.




Stephen Nix -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (2/10/2017 0:25:09)

If you know me I ask the same questions on every mtak thread so prepare yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!
I actually don't know you all that well. We just communicate via PMs whenever I have new info that can be added to your threads.

Here comes to you my questions and congrats to you on your continuing AK ship!

Who gave you the deadly task on becoming an AK?
The brave and strong-willed Melissa4Bella bestowed the honor upon me for my continuous services to the pedia. She's actually a nice person who respects those that treat others well.

How are the shackles.....what color are yours?
You're the third person in that thread to speak of shackles haha. Still, no chains can hold this pyromancer down. I just go with the wind and I ended up here.

Are you good or ebil or evil?, choose wisely because if you choose wrong your seat will explode with my icicles rite below your chair I will send you off into the oblivion....muhahahaha!
I will always be on the side of good. Are you really that diabolical, The Nix? If so, it could be a fight against two opposite elements.

Ready to play?
Alright, The Nix. Bring it! I'm ready for whatever frozen projectiles you have at your disposal.

Whats your defense to my ultimate attack of ice ownage mixed with pure darkness from the abyss?
I can punch even the sharpest icicles launched at me if I'm wearing my custom Dragonlord armor. Launching just as many fireballs would also be a nice defense mechanism since ice is just a solid shape of water.

Does this shirt make me look fat?
The last time I checked, you weren't wearing a shirt so no, it doesn't.

Does it make you look fat?
No, not really. The shirt fits me just fine, thankfully.

What did you do when you were first given permission to work for the forums? Did you party, dance....
I mostly befriended UltraDragonMaster and tried to take the news all in so I can adjust to the change with a smile on my face and a fireproof keyboard at my disposal.

What is your signature lock? "B"locked, Ultimate Lock down, Clawed or even frozen in time or something else...
If I ever need to lock a thread, it would be "Shelved in the Forbidden Section of <Insert Town Here>'s Library." For instance, Croft might have a library somewhere, but I can only visit in October.

I hope that you're having a fun time among the DF Pedia community...cya says Stephen Nix!
Thanks for the congratulations, Stephen. I'm happy to be working with the DF Encyclopedia once more and I'll see you around.

May the undead penguins eat you alive!
Then I need to keep moving and defend Falconreach from your undead penguin attack. It's already survived a massive undead onslaught from Caitiff. Why not this one haha?




Kiyone -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (3/13/2017 20:32:07)

My late question time.
Good evening. It's better late than never. Ask away, Kiyone.

1. What is your stance on the color blue?
It's a radiant color. It is the color of the skies, oceans, and waterfalls. Blue is practically a natural color in our world and Lore.

2. Who's your favorite girl in the Tenchi Universe?
Technically, it would be the girl with the purple hair. Apparently, it's not much to narrow down.

3. Are you an "Autobots Transform and Roll Out!" or "Autobots Rev up!" or "Decepticons Rise Up" person? or "Maximals Maximize" or " Predacons Terrorize!
I'm likely more of a "Autobots Rev up!" kind of person since the brain is like an organ with an engine and I need that for thinking.

4. Current Kamen Rider series is Ex-Aid. In which we have Doctors meet video games. Where doctors are armored characters with faces of their chibi level one forms on their back. So what type of Kamen Rider with video game theme would you be?
The rider in red suits my tastes better because red is my favorite color. The sword design is kind of awesome too.

5. Who is your favorite character from Fire Emblem?
A male robed warrior with a long sword would be my answer. Robed warriors are oftentimes the most unexpected opponents in combat.

6. What is your favorite version of Chris Jericho?
The one photograph where he is wearing a black-gold vest covered in red and blue colored lights is certainly my favorite. There are just so many colors in one place.

7. Did you feel the FEELS from Kevin Owens betraying Chris Jerico?
This might surprise you, but because I have not been a witness to this untimely betrayal, I didn't feel anything at all.

8. If I were to sacrifice you for the greater will of Blue. Will you comply?
Probably not. I'd run off at the first instant you would ask. A sacrifice was already made and it almost shrouded the world in darkness. Sorry, Kiyone.

9. How's the transition been with adding forum moderation to your duties?
It doesn't feel necessarily different from posting in the DF Encyclopedia beforehand except I am able to help more effectively. The knighting was so unexpected that it took me some time to take it in and adjust so it would feel normal to me. I am quite happy about being here.

10. Have you found me in Dragonfable?
Yep, you're someplace in Swordhaven waiting for someone to wake up. Hopefully, you got your training done from the tinkerer. Otherwise, you'd have to follow him or her wherever he or she goes. I'm not sure how the training ultimately turned out, though.




David the Wanderer -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (3/14/2017 10:48:03)

Laaate question time! :P
Go right ahead, good sir.

Since it's 3-14... Pie or cake?
Ah, today's Pi Day. I prefer apple if it has fruit in it and I like cake if it is baked in chocolate and chocolate frosting. It is my favorite flavor on a pastry. ^_^

If you could choose one fictional universe to live in (this means books, cartoons, movies, etc.), which one would you pick?
If a universe had realistic fiction, I'd live in the world where A Series of Unfortunate Events take place. I'm used to exploring worlds with so many questions, but so little answers. If it were an entirely fictional universe, Sonic's world would win hands-down.

Are you excited about the DuckTales remake?
I can say that I am. Scrooge McDuck would be diving into a vault of gold coins once again at the thrill of such celebratory news.

Favorite song?
I enjoy listening to this recent track on DragonFable to help me feel inspired, raise my spirits up, and chase what my heart desires. Generally speaking, I enjoy a good orchestral track with a calming sense of ambiance.

Quick! You're being chased by a T-rex in the jungle! What do you do?
Hide in the nearest giant palm tree and wait out the dinosaur. Then I'd rest for the night and come out the next morning, only for the chase to begin again and again.

THE ULTIMATE QUESTION: BLOO or purpl?
I would go with purple because it is a combination of red and blue and it is such a radiant, decorative color in some situations. :)




Faerdin -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (3/21/2017 13:24:57)

*Somersaults into the thread*

Well met, brother! It's a fine thing to finally visit your thread and congratulate you on becoming an ArchKnight. :D
Good evening, Fae. Thank you very much on taking the time to visit.

*Plays a saxophone*
That's a nice solo you're playing. I wonder what kind of tune you're playing?

I, uh... I don't know exactly what I'm doing now so I'll get to the heart of the matter.
Maybe you needed some more practice on your saxophone, but it's still good to enjoy you play.

Or I would if David hadn't beaten me to the punch. So I'll just go on with my questions! O:
Don't worry, David took a couple scoops of punch, but there's still left for you. Go ahead.

1) What is your greatest aspiration as an artist?
I'm probably not sure if I can say, but I hope to keep sticking around DragonFable and have my trusty pencil and Flash Professional software by my side in the process.

2) Is there anyone in particular whose style inspires you?
Cronix and Dracelix are my two of my biggest inspirations when studying DF styles. Outside of DF, Bido and Seth Juron are definitely inspirations when looking at other types of styles in Flash art.

3) Of all there is to DragonFable -- story direction, quest design, artwork, music, etc. -- what do you feel was designed the best?
Why pick one or the other? I prefer all of the above because the melting pot of artistic styles and storytelling are a couple of major qualities that causes DragonFable to be so special in its own right.

4) How do you feel about orcs in DragonFable?
I'm not so sure yet. So far, not much is known about orcs other than the fact that they are "intelligent, romantic, and wonderful companions," according to one who was rescued, which is a reassuring sign. :)

5) How many fingers am I holding up as of writing this post?
Possibly six or maybe four. It's kind of hard for me to get an accurate result from visualizing you holding up your fingers.

6) Would you consider yourself a train enthusiast?
I haven't been on a train in a long time, but I don't mind traveling on one. They're prefect for sightseeing.

7) Of all colors, which is your favorite and why?
My favorite is definitely red because it's the color of fire.

Whelp, that's everything from me. Can only post seven questions, y'know.
That's okay, Faerdin. You sure made the most out of them while you could and they were most creative.

Once again, congratulations on joining the team and congratulations on your phenomenal artistic talents!
Thanks, man. I really appreciate it and I'm glad you see me as talented. ^_^

You could say your work is... Occa this world.
Haha you may be right because of my improvements over the past year. You can say thanks to Charfade and the EpicDuel team for their helpfulness and fantastic advice that shaped my style and knowledge in the art world for the better.

*Rolls out of the thread*




draketh99 -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (3/25/2017 10:50:42)

Hey there Occa! Congratulations on the AK-ship!
Good morning, man. Thank you so much. ^_^

I suppose it's time for questions now, isn't it?
Haha I suppose it is time for questions. Why not? Ask away.

Prepare yourself for the questions of an armadillo!
*cracks fingers* I'm prepared for whatever you've got to ask. What can happen?

1: What's your favorite memory of Dragonfable?
The Final 13th is obviously my favorite memory because it marked the end of an era on DragonFable. Dealing with forces of darkness, working with an unexpected foe to defeat a common enemy, and overcoming the impossible so the world can see the light of day again. Because of what happened in this week's release, I can already see that as making another great memory.

2: If you had to attune to an elemental orb, which would it be?
I would attune myself to the Elemental Orb of Fire because I am a pyromancer and I like the flame trapped within the orb. Drakonnan and Akriloth attuned themselves to it before and went mad with unending rage. Given that Vayle suffered greatly from being attuned to the Darkness Orb in addition to the events in the Great Fire War, regardless of my good intentions, I'm not sure how well attuning myself to the Fire Orb would work out.

3: What is the terminal velocity of a purple armadillo at roll?
On a flat surface, a purple armadillo would roll as fast as a ball that was just kicked. If it was at a hilltop, it would roll faster than the sound of the wind. Sledding with it would be no picnic.

4: What's your favorite thing about art?
The thought behind shaping an environment and turning feelings and thoughts into physical form is what my favorite aspect of creating art because so much goes on in my head, good and bad. Art is honestly one of my most therapeutic activities if I'm listening to good music and having fun with it.

5: What is your favorite artwork that you've ever produced?
My favorite work of art so far is my rendition of the Doom Amulet that Caitiff used to corrupt our dragons. Like a lot of my artwork, there's a story behind it, which includes the fact that this particular Doom Amulet is far more sinister and formidable if the user can control it without losing themselves. A former ED guest artist recommended I'd make my own version from scratch and give it a twist of my own and that's what I managed to accomplish because neither version of the Doom Amulet is physically alike.

6: Who would win, a pink Artix or a Cysero with his left sock tied behind his back?
Probably Cysero with his left sock tied around his back. Poor Artix can't stand the color of pink for some reason and we have yet to figure out yet.

7: What's your favorite non-dragon Pet in DF?
Triks the Moglin was an old favorite while I played DragonFable in high school because it was exciting to have a moglin pet around when the availability of moglin companions are scarce. Unfortunately, it's in my bank now and it's probably still around Level 20 while I'm at Level 51. I should probably upgrade him soon if I can.

8: Do you think Faerdin would look much more fabulous in purple?
Maybe. I don't think he minds the color, I hope, but whether he'd wear purple clothing or not is a question that I have yet to find an answer to.

9: How are you enjoying your AK-ship so far?
My AK-ship has been going well thus far. I'm able to help out more effectively on the DF Pedia by just adding new information to existing entires myself. It saves me some time and it's convenient that way whenever DF has a new update. It also helps me rest a little easier, thankfully.

10: How many questions may I ask? ._.
You were permitted to ask up to seven questions, but it sounds like your inquisitive mind knows no boundaries. That could be dangerous and lead to explosive results, which I hope won't happen because balance in our world is more delicate than we think..

Anyway, I think that's it for now! Congratulation once again, my friend! It's about time they picked you up! I hope you enjoy your time and continue with your art!
Thank you so much, Drake. It really means a lot to me to receive that honor and to share that joy with a great friend. By the way, I removed your signature because they're forbidden on threads in the DF Encyclopedia. I'm sorry about that and hopefully, you'll understand, but the warm welcome is most appreciated. :)




Occavatra -> RE: =MtAK= The DragonFable Encyclopedia Recieves more Firepower! (3/27/2017 8:01:41)

Thanks to everyone who participated in this thread for the warm welcome. I really, truly appreciated it and it made my transition as an ArchKnight easier for me. Reading your questions and answering was so much fun. With that being mentioned, now's the time to shelve it in the forbidden section of an unknown library. I hope you all had as much fun with it as I did.
