Changes: Tines of the Scar

Revision as of 00:19, 11 November 2013

“	The wizards have constructed this arcane apparatus to harness the wild magics of the Rift. They speculate that if enough magic is collected and channeled through the Rift, it will be a beacon to guide the long lost Light and Dark dragons back to our world.	”
	— Game Description

The Tines of the Scar is a structure with very special abilities that are said to be the key to uncover the Light and Dark dragons, who disappeared from history eons ago.

To summon the dragons, the Tines of the Scar need to collect magic from every DragonVale park around the world. Depending on the type of magic that is sent to them, the Tines of the Scar change their appearance and enable the corresponding dragon and decorations to be released, along with unique rewards proportional to the amount of magic that each individual player sent to the structure.

After the first element is released, players will only be able to contribute to the remaining element, until the rewards for that type are released.

Chronological Development

Additional elements on the Tines of the Scar appear in two phases; the first phase is a Light or Dark Magic indicator and the second phase adds an extension to it. In the case of Light Magic indicators, the extension is scroll-like with a gem; in the case of Dark Magic indicators, the extension is thorn-like and appears crystalline.

Notes

The prism at the bottom of Tines of the Scar changes behavior according to the stored amount of magic:
- 0 to 250 magic : prism is inert
- 250 to 750 magic : prism sends magic sparks
- 750 to 1500 : prism sends magic sparks and bubbles
