[QUOTE="Isida Kep'Tukari, post: 348319, member: 4441"] A valid point. Here another thought. You have the Great Red in charge of everything. You have a couple dozen of his most loyal buddies (other lawful evil/neutral chromatic and gem dragons, of any color) that rule large "super kingdoms" that the rest of the world is divided into. Then you have the rest of the rabble lording over smaller kingdoms inside the "super kingdoms." So you could still get the territoriality (good a word as any), while still maintaining nominal control over the various parts of the world. Most likely the Great Red would have realized this had come to pass, and only truly enforces the laws he considers to be most important. The rest is subject to draconic discretion. Another valid point. Even if they weren't necessarily the leaders of a rebellion, even if they just wanted to be left the heck alone, some might be convinced to fight the good fight. A [i]polymorphed[/i] dragon could be the greatest weapon of a group of freedom fighters. Hmm... draconic holy liberators. :D [b][/b] Following with the above ideas about the new draconic society, that would work. The only way adventurers, in the "normal" D&D sense, could exist would be to have a draconic patron. Ooo, I could see it now. Owning a group of highly trained adventurers could be seen as a sign of distinction, like owning an exotic and slightly dangerous pet. The dragons could pit their groups of adventurers against each other in gladatorial games, or send them on dangerous missions to reclaim lost artifacts in a deadly version of capture the flag. So they'll be providing a service as well as providing entertainment. [b][/B] Check a few posts up, I posted a very similar idea. I haven't read the SS system before, which books are they in?
