Due to the ambitious scope and delays for ''Seas of Dragonfall'' updates plus the additional work required to upgrade Playverse for DD2's backend, it'll most likely be a while before these gets implemented. <sup>''[https://i.imgur.com/R0OJN7u.png|Referrence]''</sup>

  • Recolor Variant: Can be purchased through event-exclusive eggs, allowing players who don't have time to grind it to choose a different look for their scarecrow
  • Dapper/Gilded Variant: Only available through the Black Market Dealer.
