[QUOTE="Tonguez, post: 9189012, member: 1125"] [CENTER][B]You must defeat Shen Long to stand a chance![/B][/CENTER] The Lung dragons are an interesting DnDism, a departure from their more occidental counterparts but not quite authentic to their asiatic origins, even when tied to the veneer of the Celestial Bureaucracy. The Lung dragons are all essentially amphibious water spirits (except Lilung), all get some kind of weather/wind control and most get polymorph, detect thoughts and some kind of control animal/dominate ability. Also they can fly due to the pearl lodged in their skulls. All but the Yulung work for the Celestial Bureaucracy with the TienLung as the Dragon Kings. The classic [B]Tien Lung[/B] are spectacular and make the best gold dragons, but better as their long sinuous bodies coil through the heavens, their varicoloured manes streaming. Theyre also lawful neutral so can be both smug and arrogant, and noble and honorable. [B]Shen Lung[/B] are interesting to me due to their modest and friendly nature, having cordial relationships with other nature spirits and a habit of taking human form so they could observe life in the villages, who consider them good luck - I like to think Sisu from the movie Raya and the last dragon was a Shen lung. (They also get a boost due to the Street Fighter reference, I imagine an ancient polymorphed Shen Long training mortal heroes in unarmed combat) [B]YuLung[/B] are the Carp who managed to climb to the top of the waterfall and jumped the dragons gate. Docile, shy, and friendly I like to think of them as dragon puppies, especially when they can breath out a cloud of healing mist. Btw Yulung cant Polymorph but on their 101st birthday they transform into a true lung dragon [B]Pan lung[/B] and Chiang lung are pretty similar, other than Pang lung being a bit more anti social (probably due to being assigned the lonely task of guarding ancient crypts). Pan lung also use ventriloquism and phantasmal force as distractions and often dominate and punish those disloyal to their families (eg adulterers) making them minions. [B]Chiang lung[/B] work for the Ministry of Thunder as river guardians who control local water flows, appearing as humans with big swords when they needed to interact with mortals. [B]Tun Mi Lung[/B] are your big destructive wild Typhoon dragons, not much personality beyond lightning, typhoon, smash! Theyre WMDs only just contained by their Ti’en Lung overlords.
