Hollow Daily! - Story Announcement!

Hey Pixies, I'm back. My story is done, go on the Pixie Stores tab on the right side of your screen , click the tab and scroll down to the last story - that's the one you're looking for! Have fun reading and oh yes, a new poem will also be added so check it out as well by clicking the Pixie Poems tab and scrolling to the last posted thing! Flap with ya again soon!


Hollow Daily! - A new story is on its way!

Hey there, Pixies! I am really sorry I haven't posted in a while, but time is really really not on my side. I've been trying to get to my computer, but every time I do I get distracted by other things ( such as my favorite bands ). So, today I finally decided to post something here. All I'm gonna tell you is - expect new stuff here ( maybe not real soon, but soon enough XD ). First on my list, is something I'm going to do today and that is - a new story for our story tab! I was inspired by Crystal Airshine's post today, from her story of how she joined Pixie Hollow. I am going to start my story similarly but it will be how I met her, because honestly she and Phoebe Twinkle have been my bestest friends on there. I do miss PH, even though I am way out of the age for that, but still I found myself a getaway at School Of Dragons. I am gonna try to make a review on it as well. It's a real cool game, and hey why not do it right now?


How I stumbled upon School Of Dragons and what it is

It was really odd actually, the way I found School Of Dragons. I was randomly searching for online games on my old PC, when I stumbled on to it. I had always wanted a game like that, ever since I became obsessed with Dreamworks Dragons Of Berk. Yeah, that's what the game is about actually. It's based on the two movies and the two-part TV series Riders & Defenders Of Berk. Okay, so back to the main point. It's a game where almost everything is free - when I sat almost ... You can have more than one dragon, but you get the first one ONLY IT FOR FREE. Then, you need to buy eggs to hatch from the store because the ones in the hatchery... Still needs payment aka membership, but If you become a member you won't need to spend money aka diamonds on eggs. Also, now that I mentioned it... Diamonds are one way of shopping - which require real world money to get or just log in every week every day and you will get an amount, but really the only thing you'd use them for is a new egg, a super advanced fishing rod or the best clothes. The other way, for which real world payment is not required is gold aka coins. You can buy almost anything with them : clothes, fish bait, dragon saddle and seeds for farming. Yes, like in PH there's farming ( in PH it was known as gardening ) , and you get to grow crops like dragon weeds, vegetables, you even get to raise farm animals like sheep and yacks.. Yeah, yacks are a kind of a cow ( sorry if I misspelled it O.O) that gives you milk , exactly like a regular cow only with fur and it's huge. Other than meeting friends , you get to make a best friend forever aka your very own dragon. You can basically get any dragon ( well depends if you're a member or not ). If you're a non member you can get only the basic aka first known aka created dragons : Zippleback - as you know Barf and Belch ( the twins' dragons) , Deadly Nadder - Stormfly, Astrid's dragon, Monstrous - Hookfang, Snotlout's dragon and the gronkle - Meatlug, Fishleg's dragon. They're all unique in their own way and I have two accounts with two deadly nadders  - Willow and Mikey. 
 


 You and your dragon - What can you do and how to grow it?

You grow your dragon on specified level. When it reaches level 5 , then you can grow it to Teen age. When it's level 10 ( or 15 , not sure I forgot ) you grow it to full aka adult. Then, you can actually fly on it and randomly shoot at people ( yeah, you can even shoot Hiccup just for fun :P ) , and technically you don't hurt them, there are no life points or as we know them as life bars with percents and stuff. However, your dragon has needs that need to be satisfied : two bars - happiness and hunger. You need to feed it fish and/or dragon nip aka weed. Dragon nip increases it's happiness too! You grow nip on your farm, and you get fish by fishing - there are two types of fishing at sea and at a lake, there are drying posts for fish and a camp fire that mark the fishing spots at both. One thing you need to know about fishing is that the first 50(or 80) gems you get as you fist enter the game, you need to use them for an improved fishing rod aka a rod with the drag mode. The first rod you own hasn't got that option, so you need to buy that one which costs more than half the gems you own. But it will all be worth it, because your fishing will go real easy, and if you do not purchase the rod, you'll never get a fish, trust me. Here, let me show you why you actually need the drag mode. 

 

See the red spaces up on the bar where the fish is? That means, that if that pointer thing goes in the red area, the fish will escape. So, to avoid losing your catch use the drag button ( as you can see it in the right low corner of the picture ) and the arrow thing or pointer , whatever, will return to the green part of the line and you'll get yourself dragon food. BUT there is something you should NEVER catch unless you choose a gronkle - EELS. Yep, all the dragons EXCEPT gronkles are scared of them, so feeding all dragons EXCEPT gronkles an eel will lower their happiness meter real low ( red zone low ).  Now , enough about the fishing, the happiness, you're probably wondering how to keep that up in the gold mode... Well, by petting your dragon and playing three games with it: Eel roast, Fire light chase and catch with a sort of a ball. The best ways to increase happiness fast is petting and Eel Roast ( don't worry dragons don't get scared of eels in the mini game ).  Now, here is a picture of a player bonding with her dragon ( this is not me, )

This is the hatchery, where your dragon is hatched and where you select its primary look aka color. Remember, once you choose and hatch it there's no returns. That's why the game itself warns you twice about this, asking you if it's the dragon you really want. To make it easier to choose, there's a test that Gobber has, he's inside the hatchery, at the entrance to the lava pit surrounded by egg nests. ( Check out videos on youtube to find your way around). But, most players have a favorite dragon so they choose like that. Anyways, the game is awesome, you can change your character as much as you want for free ( u cannot change your name so careful ) and you can also change your dragon as it grows each time for free, but when it's fully grown a change of appearance costs 15 gems.

 
Well, thanks for staying with me on this large post. Hope you liked it, and perhaps you can give the game a go, but keep in mind that it needs a minimum of 2GB of RAM to work properly or it will lag a lot. You can play through the official site and through Facebook as well. Have fun and stick around for the story I mentioned earlier. I will make a short announcement when it will be done. Byes till then!

Hollow Daily ! - Nature Day Snapshots !

Well Pixies , today I have a surprise for you . I was out in nature and I took several snapshots of flowers for all you garden lovers out there ! These are similar to the one's pedals we used to chase around with our fairies and sparrow men on Pedal Pick - Up . I hope you like them and oh yeah , I was thinking not all of you are keen on planting flowers for real so maybe virtually ? I will try and find a flower raising game online and provide you with the link and of course there will be a small change with the blog's look about now. So, that's it for now and another thing - I am also gonna make a welcome spring video that you can watch on my Youtube channel Stormfly Videos . Have fun in the shimmertastic spring days and remember dreaming is believing !

Hollow Daily ! - A quick hello to my Fairy Friends !

Hey there blossoms ! How's it blooming today ? Did you enjoy this warm afternoon ? Well I sure did. I was out with friends , and now I'm hanging out with these friends new and old from my social networks . Well make sure you help spring by growing a flower or maybe a smaller tree. ! And it's pretty simple how to do it too : Go out first , and use seeds you previously have . Then carefully dig up a small hole and put the seed in. Before you close the hole add in some water ( about half a glass would do ) . Then, close the hole with the dirt you previously dug up and pour water over it too , but not too much and then check in every day to see if you've done right and if your plant is growing. This way you'll do something special and you'll have a brand new spring friend ! Have fun and enjoy these flaptastic days !
