[QUOTE="ejja_1, post: 1263365, member: 7880"] [b]Another question in the same vien[/b] How many points would a black dragon get through 9 HD since the Int score doesn't show as going up until 10 HD? And does this extrapolate further through the other age categories when the Int score is high enough to receive a "plus bonus"? For instance, does a Black Dragon's skill point progression follow- 5 x 4 = 20 (for 1 HD) and +5 (at 2 HD) and +5 (at 3 HD) and +5 (at 4 HD, which brings the total to 35 for a wyrmling) and +5 (at 5 HD) and +5 (at 6 HD) and +5 (at 7 HD, bringing the total to 50 for a very young black dragon) and +5 (at 8 HD) and +5 (at 9 HD) but +6 (at 10 HD, since its Int score rises to 10, bringing the total to 66 for a young black dragon) and +6 (at 11 HD) and +6 (at 12 HD) and +6 (at 13 HD, bringing the total to 84 for a juvenile black dragon) and +6 (at 14 HD) and +6 (at 15 HD) but +7 (at 16 HD, since its Int score rises to 12, bringing the total to 103 for a young adult black dragon) and +7 (at 17 HD) and +7 (at 18 HD) and +7 (at 19 HD bringing the total to 124 for an adult black dragon) and +7 (at 20 HD) and +7 (at 21 HD) but +8 (at 22 HD, since the Int score rises to 14, bringing the total to 146 for a mature black dragon) and +8 (at 23 HD) and +8 (at 24 HD) and +8 (at 25 HD, bringing the total to 170 for an old black dragon) and +8 (at 26 HD) and +8 (at 27 HD) but +9 (at 28 HD, since the Int score rises to 16, bringing the total to 195 for a very old black dragon) and +9 (at 29 HD) and +9 (at 30 HD) and +9 (at 31 HD, bringing the total to 222 for an ancient black dragon) and +9 (at 32 HD) and +9 (at 33 HD) but +10 (at 34 HD, since the Int score rises to 18, bringing the total to 250 for a wyrm black dragon) and +10 (at 35 HD) and +10 (at 36 HD) but +11 (at 37 HD, since the Int score rises to 20, bringing the total to 281 for a great wyrm black dragon) Does this seem logical?
