Description
Some serious Flight Rising geekery. Not to mention a very good challenge for me in making body type diversity.
I had fun trying to convert the 11 dragon species of the pet game Flight Rising into humans. Some of them were really easy. Others are a lot more tricky, and may only make sense to me.
Height are based on the average dragon length. Coatl height is based upon Word of God . And yeah, one species is so tiny it could get a rather unusual classification , while three others are towering over everyone else as giants.
Please note that I based a lot of this on personal feelings, rather than totally literal interpretations.
And again, I wanted to include a bit of the extreme dragon diversity into the human body types. A couple of these are underweight. In fact, one is severely underweight. And the snapper is based on Olympic level heavy weight weightlifters, meaning he's super strong and fit, while still also overweight.
No offense is meant toward any dragon species, even if they happen to be among the ones that didn't get a super model body.
Edit: Explanations added, but it was fun to see people speculate, and which I'd made well enough for everyone to guess.
1. Mirror: I took the skeleton face on the dragons to the extreme, and gave her very deep eyes. Also, claws.
2. Imperial: They're the longest breed, so I made him the tallest but very slender. Also took the eyebrows from the breed, and made his hair and beard duplicate the double antennas.
3. Fae: Amazingly small with giant eyes. I based most the look on traditional fae-lore for what people think pf the prettier elves and faes. The big long hair is meant to duplicate the dragons giant crests.
4. Pearlcatcher: Their lore describe them as vain cowards that consider their breed superior to other dragons. Also they got pretty big chests. I combined this into making my human version a vain bodybuilder, that's so concerned with his looks, that he'll rather use spells against an opponent than risk getting scars on his beautiful body (Body-building is a sport, but the muscles is created for show in big "pageants" rather than for a more practical purpose).
5. Snapper: Based on Olympic level heavy weight weightlifters.
6. Coatl: Added after all the others, but I tried to give her a slender but soft body and a shy pose.
7. Ridgeback: One of the three giant breeds. Their lore mention they like to "borrow" things, so I envisioned her as a clever rogue.
8. Spiral: In order to give him the long snake look, he was made very skinny and with long limbs. Also, he has a very hard time standing still.
9. Tundra: I gave him the breeds fluff on his beard and hair, and a relatively standard build, that have a normal fat-reserve to help against the cold, but still don't clash with the obviously slender breed.
10. Wildclaw: I always thought of them as somewhat savage, so I gave her large powerful legs to go with the breed and a feisty attitude.
11. Skydancer. The second smallest breed (according to the statistics I found they have an average length of 2,4 meters. That's only twice the average of a fae. But then, maybe the breeding bug has cheated me). I gave him a dancer's body and wanted him to be small, graceful but confident.
12. Guardian: One of the three giant breeds. Good luck moving this amazon away from whatever she's guarding.

It's a pet-game. Basically you can breed 12 different kind of dragons, all with some 67 colours, on both body, wings and patterns (giving a total of 300000 variations just with colours).
It's one of those thing you either love or doesn't really find interesting. If your into making several generations in games like The Sims, this sort of game may be right up your alley.

If you number them left to right, one to eleven, I think this is the breed matchup.
1. Mirror. Notice the nasty claws, and how skeletal she is, and the smirk. Seems very mirror to me.
2. Imperial. Not a lot of debate here, but with the mustache and the curly hair and being so skinny and tall...
3. Fae. It's tiny, it's got big eyes, and all that hair reminds me of how large the fae's wings are.
4. Pearlcatcher. Why? Not sure. Probably the hanging hair thingies mostly...
5. Snapper. Really, does this need explanation?
6. Coatl. Because she's squishy, and coatls are squishy. Plus, that hair. The little curly cues like the coatl horns and the way it flips up and out in the back like their head frills.
7. Ridgeback. Digging that hairstyle and the attitude...
8. Spiral. It's really skinny and has long curling hair. Just makes sense to me...
9. Tundra. Fluffy!
10. Wildclaw. Notice her powerful legs, and the feathery hair.
11. Skydancer. He's got the little hair projections like the skydancer's antenna.
12. Guardian. Because yeah.

I agree with Vanshira but I feel i could expound a bit more on the reasonings. Starting from left to right.
~First on left is the Coatl because it is long and lanky, though I might have made it bald if I had humanized it.
~Second from the left is the Imperial, the whiskers and height give it away along with the curly hair.
~Third from the left is the Fae. Tiny in size, flippant attitude and big eyes screams Fae to me.
~Fourth from the left is the Pearlcatchers. They have their long whiskers and then I almost feel like he is hiding a pearl behind his back.
~Fifth from the left is obviously the Snapper because it is bulky and a bit bow-legged and not to mention bald.
~Sixth from the left is the Skydancer. it is around average height and has a graceful pose.
~Seventh from the left is the Ridgeback due to the tall height and the cocky pose and pointed nose.
~Eight from the left would be the Spiral. Tiny, lanky, and long spiraling hair hanging down. Look at all that lanky.
~Ninth from the left is the Tundra simply because no other dragon would humanize so....fluffy. xD Also it is a bit stockier like the breed.
~Tenth from the left is the Mirror, around the same size as the Skydancer yet with a go get em and tear 'em up attitude.
~11th from the left, and last but not least is the Guardian. It is one of the larger breeds, and to me always seemed tough like it wants to pound something. So it makes sense for the no nonsense fist in hand pose to be the Guardian.
Phew long winded I know and apologize but I rally loved the lineup ^.^

Gwennafran In reply to DoodleKitN [2014-01-07 21:20:16 +0000 UTC]
Thanks.
The first is meant to be a mirror. because... Skeleton.
2-5 is correct. And yeah, I did intentionally hide one of the pearlcatchers hands.
6 is actually my coatl.
7-8 is correct.
10 is meant to be wildclaw, but you got the intended attitude just right.
10.5 is skydancer
"11" is guardian, and thank you for agreeing with my feel on that breed (I actually really like guardians).
This is my full reasoning for who is what:
1. Mirror: I took the skeleton face on the dragons to the extreme, and gave her very deep eyes. Also, claws.
2. Imperial: They're the longest breed, so I made him the tallest but very slender. Also took the eyebrows from the breed, and made his hair and beard duplicate the double antennas.

Vanshira [2014-01-07 19:10:51 +0000 UTC]
I bet I can tell which one's the Fae. And I can also make a guess on Ridgeback and Guardian (they're the only ones that approach Imperials in size, and between the two, I'm guessing the bulky one is the Guardian and the one with the sharp, pointy nose is the Ridgeback.) And I'm guessing the one with the beard is the Tundra. The skinny guy next to the Guardian, I'm guessing Wildclaw, because it's that or Skydancer and Wildclaws are the smaller of the two. The ridiculously skinny one between the Ridgeback and the Tundra is probably Spiral.
That leaves four breeds of approximately the same average size...so I'm going to guess that the guy with the long braids is the Pearlcatcher, because they have those long whiskers. The skinny one on the far left, I'm guessing Coatl. Between the two remaining, I'm guessing the heftier one is the Mirror and the thinner one is the Skydancer, because I'm pretty sure Mirrors are heftier on average, plus the larger one looks more aggressive and Mirrors are supposed to be fierce.

Gwennafran In reply to Vanshira [2014-01-07 21:15:02 +0000 UTC]
Actually, according to the statistics I've seen, wildclaws are a midsize breed, while skydancers are the second smallest on site. So the small one nest to the guardian is the skydancer. - Other than that, you got the first paragraph right.
Here's the full list with explanations:
1. Mirror: I took the skeleton face on the dragons to the extreme, and gave her very deep eyes. Also, claws.
2. Imperial: They're the longest breed, so I made him the tallest but very slender. Also took the eyebrows from the breed, and made his hair and beard duplicate the double antennas.
3. Fae: Amazingly small with giant eyes. I based most the look on traditional fae-lore for what people think pf the prettier elves and faes. The big long hair is meant to duplicate the dragons giant
4. Pearlcatcher: Their lore describe them as vain cowards that consider their breed superior to other dragons. Also they got pretty big chests. I combined this into making my human version a vain bodybuilder, that's so concerned with his looks, that he'll rather use spells against an opponent than risk getting scars on his beautiful body (Body-building is a sport, but the muscles is created for show in big "pageants" rather than for a more practical purpose).
5. Snapper: Based on Olympic level heavy weight weightlifters.
6. Coatl: Added after all the others, but I tried to give her a slender but soft body and a shy pose.
7. Ridgeback: One of the three giant breeds. Their lore mention they like to "borrow" things, so I envisioned her as a clever rogue.
8. Spiral: In order to give him the long snake look, he was made very skinny and with long limbs. Also, he has a very hard time standing still.
