+1charm: I understand this one
ColorCharm: Does this just make the color you choose Xx or XX?
GlowCharm: I havent seen any of the glow wyrms actually glow but if they glow in different places will the babies this charm is used on glow in the same place or is it random?
TraitCharm: Does is include hidden traits?

2x charm:This is the real reason for this thread. Now... does this charm mean I can breed my teacup to a giant wyrm? or my standard to a Leviathan? or does it mean if i breed two teacups i can choose a giant baby, or if I breed a teacup and a standard I can choose a Leviathan baby?

Color charm lets you choose any of the possible colors, regardless of how rare, that might result from that breeding. It has to be /possible/ from those parents, though. The exceptions to this would be Royals, where you can request any color but it may not show up the way you expect. There may be others in the future.

Generally, most fully-genetic glow Wyrms actually glow in the face (using glow clay). The charm lets a baby who would normally just carrying the markings, instead be fully glow-gened and be properly glowy.

I believe HMS did say you can use it on hidden traits, however, if you do, it is treated as a 'one time' thing. The offspring would get the trait, but then they would pass it as normal to any offspring they have. It doesn't improve your chances of getting a hidden trait later, whereas it will give you XX of a listed trait, which improves your chances of offspring getting it.

2x charm - I believe it can work /either/ way, from what I recall. I believe it is intended to be that you can breed together two tea-cups, and produce a great Wyrm offspring, though.

So if I breed a teacup with a standard I cant get a levi?

Not that its a huge deal if I cant but I want to have everything understood before i start making plans

I /think/ so... but I'll let HMS field this one.
I think it works to 2x the size of the original offspring.

....hmm. Good question, actually.


When breeding a Teacup and Standard, its normally permissible to have the baby be a Standard, since one parent is Standard sized. So technically, the x2 charm SHOULD allow the baby to jump two sizes, which would result in a Leviathan.
Zia, thoughts?

I think that makes the most sense.
Levi's are pretty complicated and take a lot of time, though, so you might want to consider limiting the number of levi offspring there can be in a season.

Thats why i asked, I was thinking the same thing.

I bet Levi's do take forever though!! Limiting would be a good idea
