The season of Fire & Water is upon us and the B'alam of the Fire & Water Tribe have fallen into the Weaver's favor for blessing their unions with new life.
Rules || → The breedings will be CC (Colorist choice) and raffle. → The breeders, if they are edit-able, may opt to do random edits on the babies of non-edited B'alam (that fit with the family, of course). If you do not want this, please add this line of code to the bottom your form:
[color=red][b]Do not add edits![/b][/color]
exclaimMetaplot Special → If you would like some items/edits that are influenced by Dragon/Phoenix army, please include the following to the top of your form: (Make sure that you choose the side that the idols will be carved into!)
[color=red][b][ Phoenix or Dragon ] Army Babies![/b][/color]
B'alam that have edits will naturally pass on their edit "themes" to their offspring. • Random edits will likely range from hair to expressions. Props may be added if the colorist is inspired to do so. → Custom-ins must be submitted within a week's time of you obtaining the idols. Any custom-in forms that are pm'd after a week will not count!Due to the shortage of breeding staff, we are temporarily restricting breeding customs so more breedings can be taken! → Standard breeding fees apply. → All B'alam must be registered in the Yoliliztli Registry. → Any B'alam couples can be entered, but fire & water tribe will have preference this month!
Posting Forms || All forms can be found here! Use the appropriate form for your breeding for better chances of being selected!
Important note about props on cubs!
B'alam cubs are not woven with their props! The Weaver may be a lot of things, but he's not going to throw random armor, blankets, and scarves at the newly-woven or bond-woven b'alam of the world. The props must come with some form of explanation. There are plenty of crafters floating around now that can claim to have made these things! Be creative. :3

War Casualty Breeding Special!
Yup, we are giving preference to those who are being killed off in the Fire Metaplot! If one or more parent is being killed during the war, they will be guaranteed a breeding so that their legacy can go on, to add some emotional depth to the meta, and to deepen the lore of the Fire Tribe. There are some stipulations, however...
→ The litters of these breedings will produce 2 idols. No more, no less, no custom-in's.
→ One, or both, of the parents need to be killed off.
→ Because of our shortage on breeders, PLEASE be patient!
→ The B'alam from the breeding will inherit a keepsake from their deceased parent- the golden helmet! This is a limited edition item that will only be released through this event and the breedings. Yes, they can be "passed on" so to speak as heirlooms of the line- so breedings in the future may also "inherit" the helmet. xxxxxxxxxx[IC Explanation] These helmets, regardless of whether it's for the Dragon or Phoenix army, will be seen as heirlooms and may be customed by the parents as a way to keep the memory of their family alive. There may be an individualized stigma against the dragon army, but there will be no official encouragement from the new emperor-magus to restrict these relics. For those that decide to leave following the meta and hold to the Dragon's ways- it could be seen as an item of reverence to what could have been....and what may be again.
→ IC-wise, regardless of how long it takes Thalion to finish the litter, the idols will be carved during the rule of Shen and awaken sometime before the final battle. Backlogged rp is encouraged! Growth times will not change to reflect this- it would mess up our organization system and it would make it unfair for those that get the first breedings to wait twice as long for the later stages.
→ ALL DRAGON/PHOENIX PAIRINGS HAVE TO HAVE SOME EXPLANATION. Reasonable explanation. If you aren't sure- PM Thalion or poke her in the discord and we'll figure things out.
→ These breedings are FREE....but you can tip your colorist. They have wishlists. >A> And like hugs.
→ Edits are CC on whether or not they pass, if unedited b'alam get edits, etc. It depends on how many idols we have to do!
If you are interested, post the standard breeding form with the following title at the top of your post:
[color=blue] [align=center][b][size=30]Life before Death[/b][/size][/align][/color]
If you are doing a Phoenix/Dragon pairing, add the following to the bottom of your post:
[quote="Dragon/Phoenix"] Explain how the couple met, why they're in love, how they are carving idols without either side knowing, and how the cubs will be raised. Please be detailed and pay very close attention to the meta's canon.[/quote]

Dragon/Phoenix
Explain how the couple met, why they're in love, how they are carving idols without either side knowing, and how the cubs will be raised. Please be detailed and pay very close attention to the meta's canon.
Bellatora and Feihong crossed paths on the outskirts of the Dragon territory searching for her father. After a brief reunion with her mother she learned that not only had her littermate siblings disappeared to safer grounds but that she had new younger siblings that Najila and Xavier had carved before the events changed their Fire Tribe forever. Yet her world changed when she learned that her father never returned from the first gathering of the tribe and that set off red flags within Bellatora. Promising her mother to return with their father, the Nahtil left in search of her father and pledging her alliance with the Phoenix as a warrior. The days bled into months where the tension between the brethren of the tribe continued to rise until Bellatora crossed paths with a Tahtil that prevented her from moving further into the territory which turned into a game for the smiling marked male, Feihong. They sparred with words and wits then the stirring of their fierce tempers whenever they would cross paths, especially when Feihong would stalk her from the shadows they sparred with claws and fangs. Bellatora had gotten the upper paw and pinned Feihong letting him know that he will not stop her from finding her father and bringing him home with his family.
The fierce loyalty to family touched the fierce and carefree Feihong who had been woven without anyone to call his ‘sworn’ family. Feihong only knew of being a warrior and that it was his life that he enjoyed. The Tah didn’t care for the politics only that he enjoyed a good battle and would do anything to ensure he won. But the fierce blue of Bella’s eyes would imprint in his mind and heart that softened for Bella. After leaving Bella, he went in search on his own the whereabouts of her father but it would never be known if he did find Xavier’s location for even though he felt something deeply for Bella that grew from their encounters, he was loyal to the Dragon’s cause and would constantly prevent her from learning any important information that may lead her to her father. In the same respects, Bellatora felt her heart falling hard for this mysterious and irritating Tah that blocked her every move to gather information, for she was suspicious of him. Even through the suspicion, Bella found herself thinking about Feihong to the point of realizing that whenever they were in the same space every part of her was calm and at peace while her heart would race from the butterflies when he would smile at her or say something to annoy her.
Their bond deepened until one day Feihong knew that he could not see himself with any other nor did the idea of Bellatora with any other Tah than himself. While he did not know what alliance Bellatora was on, he knew that his heart and soul would not rest until they were bound. Feihong proposed to Bellatora to be his bonded mate. Much to her surprise, Bellatora said yes. However where they made their den was a little…tricky for Bellatora never revealed her alignment and Feihong kept his own alignment silent leaving that unknown as the only thing between them.
Several more months passed as Bellatora would often meet with her family but would never bring her mate to her mother’s den…..she did not want to cause trouble for either of them but with the growth of her younger siblings she felt a strong bond with her brother, Cervantes. Watching them grow from cubhood to adulthood, seeing the happiness that it brought her mother as being a mother stirred her own maternal feelings. But how would they be able to raise a family given their positions in their tribe?
Somehow they would find a way to ensure that their offspring were safe, healthy and happy if they were blessed.
Yet a thought did occur to Bellatora one day when Feihong left their secret den. Bella felt that she could trust her little brother Cervantes and brought him to her home with Feihong after he would question her constantly in why she didn’t stay with them. Bella mused to Cervantes that he was so much like their father in his fierce and grumpy demeanor but gave in to show him why when she brought him to her den and revealed the carved idols from her and Feihong. Bellatora told her brother that should anything ever happen in this war to promise her to take care of her offspring and bring them to their parents. Cervantes did not like the way Bellatora spoke but swore he would look after them if anything happened to her and this mysterious Tah she was mated to.
Hearing that put Bella at ease to know that, especially when she knew deep down that she probably would not live long to see them grow to adulthood in her determination to find her father as Feihong remained oblivious to her plans for their offspring.
