Flight Rising, sometimes FR, places the player in charge of a clan of dragons. They must pick an elemental flight with which to associate their clan, design a progenitor and begin breeding and collecting dragons. The dragons can battle against monsters in the Coliseum; play minigames; and gather food, items, and companions to fill their bestiary.

Dolls

Dolls of the Dragon deities can be found in the game, and all twelve can be collected for an achievement. Plush toys of the Mammertee and Kelp Tender enemies and familiars can also be found, but the resemble the creature more than they resemble a doll.

Ghosts

Poultrygeist enemies and familiars are ghostly turkeys and can be fought in the Boreal Wood Coliseum venue. They can also be purchased in the Auction House or found in chests.
