It is with deepest regret and heartfelt sadness that I must report our fellow Dragon Master and Moderator has gone to Master the Dragons in the sky. I have only known Cricket virtually but she was a dear friend with a kind heart and always willing to help dragon masters of all levels. My deepest condolences to her family during this very difficult time. Please join me in saying goodbye to Cricket.

Goodbye Cricket I miss you

Rest in peace, LilCricket. Thank you for helping the community whenever we had questions. We will miss you.

Deepest condolencesand heartfelt prayersto Lil Cricket's family and friends

So sorry to hear this sad news. Rest in peace, Lil Cricket.

May she rest in peace. She had to go to early. She will be missed a lot. My thoughts are with her family. I am almost speechless because this is so sad.

This is a shock. I knew she hadn't posted for a long time & I missed seeing her posts. RIP LilCricket.

LCP was the sweetest person I met in DC community.
I remember that when I was kicked out of my alliance, she immediately sent me a message asking if I wanted to join her alliance. I don't even know how important this message was to me at the time, how much it made me feel good. She has always been that way, always willing to help, always caring for the players.
Sending my condolences and strength to her family, I hope that everyone can find some solace during this sad time.
Goodbye LilCricketPa, rest in peace.

Goodbye LilCricket. RIP and my deepest condolences to her family.

@nynaevelan i am only a player of monster legends, but either way, i shall bow my head to a kind soul. Gone but not forgotten by those who knew them

Wow, that is very sad. I will always remember all the times she posted and helped us with our questions... and it’s just so sad.

As a way to say goodbye to Cricket, I decided to create a post somewhere on Facebook as Cricket inspired me to join this Forum and give tips that would help many players. I feel sadden as I never got to chat with her as and that her family now has the deal with the harsh reality that everyone comes across in life eventually.
RIP Cricket

Please know that you and your family have my deepest condolences, and I hope God holds you all in his hands during this very difficult time. Cricket always spoke highly of you and her family.....including your fur baby Pomeranians.

Didn't have the chance to know her but my condolences to her loved ones, R.I.P

Dear LilCricket,

there are no words to describe how sad I'm feeling these days. We have lost an extraordinary person, a dearest friend, a passionate Dragon Master...

Thank you, LilCriket for everything you have done for the Dragon City community and for your beloved Dragons. You will always be missed in this forum and in this game... you will always be remembered.

Rest in peace, LilCricket... and once again... THANK YOU!

Always in our hearts.

On behalf of the entire Dragon City team, our deepest condolences to her family and friends during this difficult time... Sending y'all lots of LOVE...

This is all very sad. It’s such a shame, but it has to happen in life.
It was a big shock. It happened very quickly, and it’s hard for such a change in the forum, and now there is only 2 moderators.
RIP @LilCricketPa

I am personally shocked and saddened to hear this news, my heart goes out to LilCricket´s Family and closest friends. She was a caring, thoughtful and passionate person and we will miss her so much.

She will always be remembered!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

@nynaevelan not been on for a couple of days, what sad news, thinking of her family at this time

Its heartwarming to see a community come together like this, a lot of communities in gaming are so toxic and unbearable. But here everyone has come together to pay their respects. Each and every one here is a kind human being, rare these days. Glad to call myself a part of the community

My Deepest condolences to her family . She will be missed

So true, @kayno125. I couldn't be more proud of each and every member of this community.

THANK YOU ALL so much, Dragon Masters, for being part of this and for helping us honor our beloved Forum moderator and friend, LilCricket. That means a lot.

We may not know each other in our day to day lives, but a game can create a bond as strong as family, as shown by the support for lilcricket, each and every person who cricket ever helped has been hit by this loss. I personally did not have that experience but from the things you all say, i can tell she was a wonderful person. I hope that my dragon city fam can just remember no matter what, people care for you. Shoutout and love from your monster legends family, we all together

She was the first to answer my first question 3 month ago and even it was only a stupid connection problem with Facebook, she truly cared.

And just thinking ... a new dragon as a remembrance ? or new design for an existing one ?

That's a wonderful suggestion @jfdubois84 , thank you very much.

Since you mentioned it... I would like to inform you that the team is planning to do so.

The idea we have in mind so far is to create a Dragon in honor of our @LilCricketPa, this dragon will be a Collection Reward.

I'm sure LilCricket would love this community to brainstorm together for the design of her dragon, so please share here below how you imagine her Dragon. I'm going to suggest the Dragon name & Elements that I personally imagine for her, but please feel free to suggest others!

Fill in the following 'Briefing' information to guide our Artist that will be in charge of making this dragon:

Dragon Name: Little Cricket Dragon

Elements: Legend + Pure + Light + Nature

Morphology of the Dragon: (2 legged? Quadrupedal?)

Dragon motion: (smooth, heavy,...)

Special traits:

Color Palette:

Special animation:

Also, feel free to attached images to help to describe/explain your idea.

Thanks again, DC community!

Thanks, @Pounawea and here is mine!

Dragon Name: Little Cricket Dragon
Elements: Legend + Pure + Light + Nature
Morphology of the Dragon: Two Legs
Dragon motion: Smooth
Special traits: Big Eyes, Long Tail, Wings, Smile
Color Palette: White, Red and Blue
Special animation: A baby dragon appears and she hugs it

Thank you, @_TheSpaceBeing_ !

I am not creative but I agree it should resemble a Pol because she loved them. And please, please ask the team not to make the collection too difficult for those of us who loved her to get it.

Please, don't put it with a collection too hard to complete, but not too easy either !

Also, I would propose to switch for Soul or Happy instead of Nature. So Legend + Pure + Light + Soul or Happy

I agree. A Pom would be a great dragon to resemble her.

“The Pom dragon was so nice, pure and helpful that Deus made her an angel. She will always be close to the hearts of every dragon and master.”
Sorry if you can’t read my handwriting, it says “made in honor of lilcricketpa” and my signature is in the corner.

As of now around 32 or so people who are not in this forum reacted to the post I created. I will do another post in numerous groups to see how people would like to see a dragon of LilCricket. I'll post the results of what people come up with since I feel making a dragon is without a doubt a high honor a person can achieve to become known to people because it shows how much impact you have done to others.

@pounawea !
How about This dragon?

UPDATE: final version, I tried to give more DC art style.
colour palette: classical pom colours (white, gingery)
morphology: Hybrid quadrupedal (some dog shape on the face)
Also, I tried to simulate the long dog fur in the neck and put a rose in the tail because the most notorious LCP profile pic, in my opinion, was the dragon raising from a flower.

The elements also represents what LCP was here: a pure soul filled with happiness and light

@Aleweck That Design is fabulous! However, it could have some unusual colours perhaps, to make it unique. That design would fit very well!

I hope one of these designs gets in. It’ll be a unique dragon for sure, and the only one I’d actually spend gems to get. It’s a perfect representation of lilcricketpa.

Also, I have an idea for one of her moves. She could have the wailing dragon’s dragonitarian and pure being moves that heal the rest of the team, since she was helpful and kind to others.

I have no many time to do something more "DC", but I'd like to contribute with some ideas.
I tried to bring some dog shape to the face and most common color of pomeranian.

Dear community,

This is amazing. You guys are incredible! THANK YOU SO MUCH to all of you for your contributions! Special thanks to our anonymous contributor @jfdubois84 @_TheSpaceBeing_ @BathtubDoritos @John-DC @Aleweck and DC Moderator Team.

We are going to make this happen. I'll forward all these ideas and suggestions to the DC Art Team and Game designers and we will have the Legendary Little Cricket Dragon in the game at some point in the future. As you well know, I cannot promise you any date, but we will have her as a Collection Reward.

I'm really touched... extremely proud of this community... once again, THANK YOU.

@Pounawea, "pom dragon", as suggested by Bathtubdoritos, is also a perfect name. Simple and sentimental

@pounawea Thank you so much! You’ve made me feel honored. I hope to see the dragon in the game soon.

TBH, I kinda hope the 1000 Dragon turns out to be the Little Cricket Dragon.

Most likely not, but still nice to think about.

For the 1000 Dragon we have already planned something, and we will all be involved! For now, I won't say more...

For LilCricket Dragon, I'll keep you updated but we will definitely have to wait some months. BTW, your suggestions were shared yesterday with the rest of the team and they all loved it!!
