My 4 dragon mount ideas

When I was in the shower today I was washing ma hair and came up thses 4 ideas for new drake mounts. Now bear with me these are MY ideas and have nothing to do with blizz (just saying that as some people WILL say something around those lines :roll: ) Now I'll be saying how you might obtain the mounts allso.

Now on to the show!

1) Chromatic drake mounts: I love the colours of these guys they are so pretty to look at. I know they all got wiped out in Black wing lair and are kind of a failed experiment that got replaced by the Twilight flight. Now the mount would just be like Gyth and I have two ideas of how to obtain the mount one is a drop from Gyth in the ecounter you fight him in upper black rock. The 2nd is from a rare spawn kind of like the Time lost. It would fly around either Black rock mountian or the Twilight hightlands and it would drop the mount.
I think a name along the lines of "lost Chromatic drake" or "crazed Chromatic drake" or even "Escaped Chromatic drake" and have some Twlight cultests chaceing after it!
It would not be a easy fight like the Time lost is no it would be hard! As like all Chromatic drakes he would have all the powers of the 5 main flights. Maybe a leech heath move (green), a rock spike move (black), a flame breath move (red) a slow movement/attack speed move (bronze) and a arcane missile move (blue).

2)Aspect mounts: I fell in love with the Onyxia mount and well why not make mounts of the aspects? Now only the 3 who have models would get these mounts of course.
The Deathwing one would I think drop off him in his raid.
The Malygos one would drop off his raid.
The Alexstrasza one would I think be a reward from her for doing something. Maybe a long quest chain involveing deathwing and her eggs or a dungeon where you go back in time to save her from the orcs as the Infinite are trying to stop her being saved.

3)Bone proto drake: Now in dragonblight there MUST be 100s of proto drake bones there as thats where they went to die before they evoled into the dragons. I mean Galakrond is there and hes the largest dragon ever to walk the earth.
This mount would be like the bone raptor mount just bones. It would be an archeology reward as well there must be heaps of fossils of them all over the world. I unlike many people LOVE archeology so yeah I'd so get this. It would come in 4 types bone,frost,fel,Magma/Ember (same thing differnt name)

4)More types of proto drakes!: Now I LOVE proto drakes ( On cow I have so far the green,purple and Timelost) and I think they where the best things in WOTLK.
So far they made protos for each of the main flights. Makes sence as these would of evolved into those flights but then they added the plagued/metal ones so why not others?

Albino proto: from a achievement for collecting mounts/ maybe a dragon collecting one?

Chromatic proto: Could be a rare like idea number one (Chromatic drake) They could switch between each other spawn wise.

Infinite proto: I don't see why there can't be a Infinite proto mount they could be wonderfull shock troops. Might drop from a Infinite themed raid maybe alongside a Infinite drake one.

Netherwing proto: Now I know theres the Proto nether But its not a REAL one! I mean this mount would have the same features like a Netherwing drake IE the tail fins/wings/shark like head. Might be a rare/buyable mount

Twlight proto: it would look like a Twilight drake but a proto so the same colours etc. Would be a drop from a rare or boss or reward.


So theres my list hope you enjoyed my rambleings and comment if you like. just don't go on rants how much you hate rares or arcehology please. Put up your own ideas allso. Like when the hell is the green drake becomeing a mount?

Chromatic: Sounds really neat! I'd get this! :)

Aspects: I don't know about the Alexstrasza or Malygos mounts, but a... Deathwing mount?! :headbang: Imagine people's reactions! :lol: here is one--> :shock: another--> :o Meanwhile me--> :twisted:

Bone 'Drake: √ 8-)

More 'Drakes: I love drakes too, and I'm trying to get the Green Proto-drake right now.

Id love for more protodrakes, theres only 5 colors in the game i like, 1 is retired (black), violet which i wont ever get since i hate doing the celebrations for so long that i feel like im beating them dead with a stick, time-lost which i'll only get if im lucky, blue which im farming, and ironbound which i will never get unless i get the break of my life and have a successful raid through it

I really can't understand why they retired the black/plagued so quickly =s They haven't done anything to the ICC ones!

I love the idea of a Chromatic Drake =D Ever since seeing that orc on one made me want one so badly! Also WTB Bronze/Chromatic Whelpings too kkthx <3

Chyeah, more protos! I love the idea of a bone Proto from like, Vrykul arch or something (it'd actually give me a reason to Arch in Northrend...). I love Protos in general. Normal drakes, imo, are lovely but very intelligent/sentient beings who "allow" you to "travel" with them... where as my good old Time-Lost is like a cuddly puppy who wants to flap anywhere and everywhere as long as he gets a pat at the end of it. They're so happy and cheerful XD

Chromatic -- "escaped Chromatic", win. Albino proto = win. Not too fond of Aspect mounts... lore-wise... it's a bit much for me, but perhaps I could handle aspect whelps ("Lost Whelp of Deathwing", "Lost Whelp of Nozdormu" etc)... come to think of it I wouldn't mind campable rares that dropped minipet/s as opposed to mounts. Hmmmm.

1) Chromatic drake mounts:

That would be great! .. Oh and a green one too plz!
2)Aspect mounts:

I like the idea, but I would suggest they would have to be clever about the implementation of them. Have them fit into the lore or explain them and should be swell. Maybe I'm thinking too much.... but Yes, I <3 the ony drake too

3)Bone proto drake:

Win ^... Possible Vykrul Archeology mount anyone? (at least it would give you a reason to dig in Northrend :D )

4)More types of proto drakes!

More Win ^

Albino proto:

Lots More win ^

Chromatic proto:

I like it, but we kinda already have the pink/purple one, and the proto's from what I have seen never really got spliced/experimented on by Mr Nef.. but I like the idea none the less.

Infinite proto:

OMG, this would look amazing, bugger any lore attached to it! :lol:

Netherwing proto:

Again, not sure about the lore side, mainly as they reside in Outland, But they would look amazing ^
Twlight proto:

Same As Nether Proto, but defiantly easier to explain as there have been a little more proto/twilight interaction. Again, this would look amazing none the less.

Very nice ideas cows, Keep them Up :D
