[QUOTE="Lanliss, post: 6937218, member: 6801219"] I think that clearing things up would be as simple as putting a paragraph or two talking about the "New age" Kobolds, those who have accepted their lot in life, and decided to make the best of it, rather than cling to the Old Beliefs. Mention that some tribes view these pseudo-breasts as a sign of power and station, and maybe have one tribe that is all about War that actually removes the breasts from their bodies if they show up, to avoid them getting in the way. On the biology, I am not sure the Hermaphrodite angle really says "Dragon", unless you dragons are also hermaphroditic. It more says to me that they are Biologically built to survive as a species. You mentioned there are "Primary fertilizers" and "Primary carriers". Does this mean that the secondary of each type can still accomplish those jobs, just not as well? Maybe a couple of Primary Carriers got stranded on an island at some point, and had to populate it alone. To push the Dragon angle, maybe add more Dragon-ish mentalities. Hoarding, Lone Wolf hunting style, and a cultural need to be feared or respected. Of course, some are sure to deviate from that need, but the powerful ones in each tribe will most likely be the ones that were willing to do almost anything to reach that station. On a cultural point, you might have a sort of fictitious "bible", written by those who are aiming to become dragons again. Stories about why they fell, at least one story of The Most Beleiving Kobold, who became a Dragon again through sheer power of belief. [/QUOTE]
