„Drake“

„What?“

„Where‘s the matriarch‘s horns?“

Babysitting 👍

based on @greendest1ny’s drawing prompt. I know it was supposed to be like the Lloyd and Riyu one but. But. I could not resist this

Uniquely Violent Things I’ve Seen in Dragons Rising Season 2

- “Destroy this world and everything in it.” “What about the people?” “I said everything.”

- Lloyd’s constant vision-based panic attacks/confirmed PTSD

- Onscreen dragon matriarch death

- Arin passing out after getting thrown out of the Bounty and waking up midair

- The constant times they say “die” and “kill”

- Transphobia allegories with Bonzle being trapped in a box and turned back into a spell

- Sora and Nya sobbing in each others arms after Kai gets trapped in a prison forever

- The WHOLE blood moon ritual; wolf masks, drums, deadly spinjitzu…

Thoughts on the teaser

Explorer's Club looking mf

Hey why the fuck is that one guy glowing white? Is that the guy who was trying to get through the portal when it closed? So he's stuck between the two worlds? Shit

Also why's he sitting in a chair while the others are standing very formally? Leader of the Forbidden Five?

I know they're all happy and don't know what's coming for them in this shot, but look at Arin

I'm assuming this is before he learns he won't be able to compete.

Also, Lloyd in the new master fit!

Can't tell one hundred percent, but that looks like the Matriarch without her crown. For some reason she's in the Kingdom of Madness (might be because she decided to move her herd in s1 ep2 and thought this was a safe place). And why does she look like she might be dying? Or at least not in a good condition. (Assuming this'll be in the episode 11)

Oh fuck Wyldfyre's face. Whatever happened can't be good. But I'm not sure if it has to do with Cinder having heat or some other event. Mainly because Wyldfyre very much is controlling heat right now.

Also, nice design on the back of her suit

WAKE UP NEW SORA WEAPON

(If I had a nickel for everytime a character with tech powers had a tech staff as their weapon I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice) (Yes I'm referencing Donnie from ROTTMNT)

Roby with the selfie wand! Not what I expected but I'm here for it.

And he seems to be having them doing a wave thing, as when he passes in front of the crowd they lift their arms up a bit and then put them back down.

I have no idea why they might be in the Administration, but I guess they are. (Also looks like this will be Episode 11)

Cinder in his sick ass outfit. Haven't even seen the whole thing and I can already confirm the minifigure does NOT do it justice at all.

Also (like everyone else) wondering how the hell he has Heat. Stole it from Wyldfyre using some weird Shatterspin magic? Maybe Jordana stole it using her dark magic for him? Or some other Tournament related thing that gave him said ability to take her powers.

Or maybe a new master of Amber? But 1) don't think the writers are going to just kill Skylor like that and 2) There's no way he would've been able to hold Ash's power for that long, even without broken Amber powers like Skylor likely did past Season 9

That's actually a really small dragon.

And Cole

No idea when this'll be (or who Lloyd's even fighting) but based on his outfit and the time of day, this is not one of the actual Tournament battles.

Maybe during these episodes in the actual battles Lloyd will wear the Tournament outfit, and then in scenes that are not Tournament events, he'll be wearing the master outfit. Which would put this scene at pretty much any point in the season except for Episode 11. And likely episode 20. Maybe

Or Lloyd will be wearing this outfit only at the beginning of the Tournament (likely only Episodes 12 and maybe 13) and then will wear the Tournament suit the rest of the season

WHAT DID JIRO AND ZANTH DO TO THEM TOT

They don't seem to have any people on their back?

Maybe it's illegal in the Tournament to use dragons? Or the guard dudes are just being bullies.

And why's that guy's gun got a clock on it

Ha. They deserved that for being mean to the dragons

So did that guy

Also there's some of the ninja. Can't tell who all of them are, but there is Wyldfyre for sure, and it looks like Maybe Zane and Geo? As well as whoever's wearing the brown color? I was going to guess Arin but the grapple makes it seem like it can't be him, so maybe Cole?

Maybe this is them trying to get to the Tournament and the Guard dudes intercept them

So it looks like those might be spectator outfits...

Also, Geo supporting his man!!!!! We love Geo! Look at his happy face!!!!

Wouldn't really explain why some of the apparent competitors are wearing them though

I'm thinking this may be the scene where Cinder somehow gets Wyldfyre's power. And/or Wyldfyre isn't having a fun time because this looks eerily similar to the fight in Episode 2 that resulting in her leg being shattered

Yeah. Very similar.

And Cinder's using his Shatterspin powers in this fight too. Shit

And he's smiling as usual too...

Except his eyes aren't red this time. Possibly he completely shattered his soul (as he said he was willing to do in Part 1's finale) and no longer needs the gong to access the Shatterspin powers?

Better look at the tech staff. I like it.

Though thinking about it now it might be specifically for this obstacle course thing Sora's been doing.

Looks like that might be Heatwave catching Lloyd? (Based on the claws and the fact that he caught Lloyd using his tail rather than some possibly more harmful or violent way such as the claws or mouth)

Also looks like this'll be episode 11. Maybe episode 12 prior to getting to the Tournament.

Saw someone else ask why the Source Dragon of Motion is glowing over the Monastery and honestly I have the same question.

Maybe this is supposed to be the end of Episode 20 after they free her?

Or earlier on in the season where she might be telling them to go to the Tournament of the Sources (as she and the others might be scared of Ras being able to get to them if his team wins the Tournament)

Also, that sure is a way to end a teaser /pos

Also, looking at the fact that it'll be October rather than earlier like I thought it would be, I'm thinking the date of release might be the 24th if following the previous patterns of release dates (Thursdays and multiples/factors of 4). But at the same time that feels very late, so it might actually be an earlier week like that of the 10th. Which will break the multiples/factors of 4 pattern, but it could happen.

Also, we did not see Nokt at all during this teaser, which is kinda odd. Maybe Ras is waiting until the right moment to use him in the Tournament?

With wings, without wings, and some design notes bc I think they're important.

[blogquestionmark]

its so funny the only one who questioned this is only arin and the rest are just kinda used to it already

[nyaskitten]

Something I REALLY like about the Matriarch's theme is that heavy female choir they use... while the female choir is a big part of the First Realm Dragon Theme, it's VERY prevalent w/ the Matriarch's two appearences. I think it really helps to underscore her massive presence and power over the scenes she's in, the first one big, imposing, powerful, while the second almost feels like a display of sorrow, she's now small, weak, dying...

(1:07 and 9:54 respectively.)

Why did breaknecks mom try to kill him?

Similar inciting incident as Pern Story so basically the matriarch & her rider were politically invested in Breakneck's rider not getting picked by a dragon, didn't think it would happen, and when Breakneck picked the boy the matriarch panicked and tried to kill them both in front of everyone. oops lol

However there is one major difference this time in that the boy's father was the acting human boss of the airbase, and in an arranged marriage with the matriarch rider

[dungeons-and-dragon-age]

it also once again makes me painfully aware of the woes of being a dragon age dwarf enjoyer (<- being starved for proper lore) 😔

[user-without-a-cool-acronym]

that‘s the dragon matriarch from season 1, but it looks like she is missing her fancy hat/crown thingy. The golden one with the gemstone in the middle. Maybe those are the missing dragon horns from the leaked episode descriptions

[legokingfisher]

she was just borned she has no idea

must have been a real long flight for him

[rainofthetwilight]

one thing I'm pretty disappointed about in the marketing of s2p2 is the spoiling of the matriarch's death. that part was extremely shocking, tragic and unexpected and honestly would've been much better to not to be revealed so early

[zarya-zaryanitsa]

DM: When is your cleric getting some offensive spells?

Me:

[toastingpencils37]

So when Rapton sees the Matriarch, he says:

"I've never seen a dragon that big"

Meaning this man had no clue that there was a Source Dragon just fucking imprisoned under Imperium for years

[educationaldm]

What would a Matriarchal society look like? Article by @worldanvil. We've seen R.A.Salvatore write Lloth's Menzoberranzan in the Drizzt novels, and then there's the Barbie movie...
