[QUOTE="DamienWilacoth, post: 4989639, member: 85618"] Hey! I find that the Immortal's Handbook does exceedingly well for most of my cosmology, but some of it does require a little tweaking. I have practically no knowledge of 4th edition, and having talked to a few people who've played in its format, am probably just as glad - I'll work a little longer and crunch a few more numbers to work out exactly what I need the creature to do. I'm more going with Omeganian, with Eschatolic Dragons ranking below Muhlatimic Dragons - although, in this case, using one for the other might be as simple as changing the names. Really, the tier that I'm working on I just called the Aeonic Dragons, for purposes of simplicity. The different types of dragons are pretty new, in my opinion. Again, I'm borrowing Omeganian's idea that the Aeonic dragons are sort of the equivalent of the Supreme Being's antibodies... well, most of them, anyway, although all of them are the equivalent of Time Lords. At wyrmling, I'm thinking that they are around macro-tiny. The Metuselic Dragon (Empyrean Dragon) is an inhabitant of Mazaloth - and in some ways, an embodiment of it. Of all the Eschatolic Dragons, they are the only ones associated with an earthly element: fire. Their alignments are usually Lawful Neutral. The Semaic Dragons (Lineage Dragons) are perhaps the most numerous of all Aeonic Dragons, if only for the fact that they possess the unique ability to breed true with any creature whatsoever. They are the most earthy and material of the Aeonic Dragons and for good reason - they are near constantly in disguise, blended among the peoples of whatever plane they happen to inhabit. There is usually one stationed among each Multiverse, serving as an anonymous guard against threats of the highest order. Semaic dragons hold power over all three of the domains of their lesser, nehaschimic kin - nexi, singularities, and quasars. It is somewhat speculated that if a nehaschimic dragons lived to an exceedingly old age - enough to reach ten times great wyrm - that they might somehow evolve into a Semaic dragon. Their alignments are usually Chaotic Good. The Akatao Dragons (Cynosure Dragons) are among the most malicious and dangerous beings in the kosmos. They crave the superdense 'flesh' of still living universes and as such, time lords are their favorite prey. Semaic dragons and Akatao dragons often (in Aeonic terms) come into conflict. Their alignments are usually Neutral Evil. For some things, I'm alright with the true Infinite on stats. In particular, my universe supports a class of beings known as the True Ascended, who have the power to make or unmake entire realities with a thought, and their 'gods.' For those type of beings, Infinite power is just fine. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
