#forastero dragon cookie

[quibbs126]

Also I’ve been thinking about Forastero Dragon a lot now, and I really like them. And I may be going overboard in some areas

I just want to say my ideas for them somewhere, so might as well do it here

I have some stuff for the other parent too, it’s just that I don’t have a name yet, other than it starts with “Dark”

So basically, Dark Cacao’s origin story is that his Cookie parent (I think it’ll be his mom) wanted a child, but wasn’t having any luck, perhaps because the dough she was using was too weak. So she went to Forastero in the hopes they would grant her wish. They decided to do so by giving her a small piece of their own dough or blood (not sure which because dragon), and the result this time was Dark Cacao Cookie

So Forastero is more like a donor than Dark Cacao’s actual parent. By current day they’re both well aware of the situation between them, and while they don’t really have a parent-child relationship or refer to each other as such, Forastero does have at least a passing interest in Dark Cacao

But then as for the “maybe going a bit overboard” thing, I was trying to embellish them a bit, and I came up with an idea that they have a sword sticking out of their head, which in their Cookie form manifests as some sort of shrapnel horn (since having a whole Cookie sized sword running through a Cookie sized Cookie’s head would look off)

But also that maybe the sword seals some sort of shadowy curse that Forastero has, sort of similar to Berserk Dark Cacao but a dragon, and taking out the sword from their head activates it

But I also feel like maybe that’s too much. I mean the sword I think I can keep, since that’s just a cool detail, but the shadow curse thing is probably going a bit ham

I don’t know really, I guess I just wanted to talk about my ideas for Forastero since they’ve been in my mind, but I’m still having trouble trying to draw them

But at this point I might just make these two my “canon” versions of Dark Cacao’s parents, because I really like it. I’ll still draw them for the request though

Crap how do I draw a dragon Cookie

Ah, sorry about some of those. I hadn’t read the post yet when I sent them in. As for the Dark Ganache…yeah, that was just me being dumb.

For Dark Cacao’s other parent, how about Dark Mountain Salt (aka Himalayan Salt without the Himaylans), Dark Sea Salt, or even just Dark Salt? A lot of chocolate cookie recipes involve sea salt, but I’m pretty sure Salt Cookie is already based off of sea salt. However, Himalayan salt does exist (we could just call it mountain salt), and there’s even a thing called black salt if you wanted to take inspiration from that!

You’re good with the previous responses, I just get like that sometimes. At this point I wonder if I’m being too picky (though maybe I’m saying it because it’s still early morning)

I actually quite like the name Dark Salt now that I’ve had time to stew on it, but at the same time, I think I may have gone overboard thinking about it

See, in the Beast Yeast map, there’s a place called Kala Namak Lake, and kala namak just so happens to be the name of the Himalayan black salt

So now my brain’s like “what if she’s from Beast Yeast and like, washed up ashore in eventual Dark Cacao Kingdom?” since they’re right next to each other and separated only by the Licorice Sea

But then I was thinking “I already made one of his parents a dragon not native to the region, having both of them be strangers to the place is a little much”, but I still liked the idea for Dark Salt, so now I’ve given myself more work by making two different versions of his parents, one which involves Forastero Dragon and the other one who asked a dragon for a child, and one which involves Dark Salt who hails from Beast Yeast and someone from the Cocoa Village (which I assume is in the Dark Cacao Kingdom since it just fits the region)

So basically I like the name, but I’ve made it needlessly complicated and I’m now stuck with two groups of OCs and back to square one, where I have one named after cacao beans but don’t have the other that has the first name “Dark”, and another where I have one with the first name “Dark” but don’t have one named after chocolate or cacao beans
