[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 8464437, member: 57383"] Updating [URL='http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?p=7504479#post7504479'][B]Pearl the Moon Dragon Working Draft[/B][/URL]. Well we need some background text too. I'm reluctant to use [I]opalescent[/I] in the description since the next Dragon Ruler is called Opal. That said, [I]pearlescent[/I] is a bit too on-the-nose. Also, we gave her super size changing abilities so I'd avoid "giant" as that wouldn't apply if she chose to be cat-sized! How about: [I]An awe-inspiring dragon, pale white like moonlight. Its scales gleam with subtle iridescent colors like the mother of pearl inside a nacreous mollusc's shell[/I]. Hmm, no needs a bit more "shiftiness". [I]An awe-inspiring dragon whose form subtly shifts between the shapes of different types of dragon. Its scales are pale white like moonlight and gleam with the subtle iridescence of a pearl[/I]. Yup, that'll do! For the rest, let's keep it simple: The Moon Dragon, or Pearl as she is also called, is an immortal dragon who rules over Chaotic dragons. In her full glory Pearl is larger than any great wyrm among the mortal dragons. She answers to no one except The Great Dragon who commands all dragonkind. There are two other Dragon Rulers who directly serve The Great One: Diamond the Star Dragon, who rules Lawful dragons, and Opal the Sun Dragon, who rules Neutral dragons. Pearl sometimes meets with Diamond and Opal but avoids dealing with other Dragon Rulers such as Bahamut, Ruby, or Tiamat. The Moon Dragon Ruler rarely visits the Prime Material, she usually appears to deal with some matter affecting a large number of Chaotic dragons or at the Great Dragon's direct bidding, although some visits have seemingly been whims inspired by her Chaotic temperament. When she does appear, Pearl is normally accompanied by multiple great wyrms. Her palace on the Plane of Limbo is staffed by many more Chaotic creatures, not all of them dragons. The Moon Dragon's courtiers and palace followers all worship Pearl with fanatical devotion. [/QUOTE]
