Dragon Caution and Choices

<< < (2/3) > >>

lonnarin:
Bear in mind too that the Black Plague has committed HIS share of atrocities that never were answered for. ;)Now as for dragon allies... *Magnar rubs his hands together and looks around for two particular orcs*

Acacea:
That's why I think if people (characters) are gonna do it, they should do it all the way and accept that there will be erm... casualties in attempting it... *shifty* A flatfooted one-shot and respawn is far less than that particular dragon deserves for all its crimes *nods sagely* though I imagine it was totally humiliated... and... upset... 

lonnarin:
And we should keep a scoreboard!  That way the players and dragons involved knows who's on one another's little list of grudges and who has the bragging rights. :D

Nice to see actions do have consequences!  I'm excited to see were this goes good or bad or nasty.  Vrebel is ready too by the way and would like another crack at Blacky (he's a bit weak in the underbelly).Thanks for the IC/OOC explanation on the dragons as that was  always a weird one for me as a player.  But, if your still going to let us have a go at dragons without consequences (as long as we don't broadcast it IC or proclaim ourselves dragonslayers IC ) it would be nice if they were a bit tuffer mechanically.  Suggesting maybe tweak their stats a bit or maybe their minions to adjust to the level of play we have now.Thanks,Willhoff aka Vrebel the Foul

It's already underway. *grins*The fact is, they were balanced 10+ years ago when the expectations of high-epic-level characters would be very rare (because we had a prohibition on going past level 20 without an ECDQ/WLDQ), so the intent was parties of high but sub-epic levels (generally speaking) for the occasional challenge during the Bloodstone age. During that time, their want of leaving their lairs to seek retribution on uppity adventurers was pretty low because of the threat that Bloodstone presented. Fast forward...the world has moved on in IC and OOC ways, but dragons were never made more appropriate for the new landscape. As Acacea noted, the real strength and power of dragons cannot be really well-represented mechanically, but we can certainly make them a lot more of a challenge.Besides, it's not really fair to make judgments on the ease of killing a flat-footed, AI-Disabled and controlled creature while its GM was still typing a response to you. *winks*
