[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 8603428, member: 54629"] That's a cool idea. I think if it ever got to the point in a campaign of mine where the PCs were taking on one of the dragon gods, I'd just say that they can't be truly killed thanks to all the echoes. Yeah, I need to spend some more time thinking about the elven pantheon. As it stands, it's kind of a mash-up of the traditional D&D elven pantheon and the Dragon Age elven pantheon. (The latter being another [I]spoilery[/I] inspiration.) Interesting. How come? Their flavor text paints them as being friendly, sociable, highly moral, but not into actively rooting out evil the way gold and bronze dragons do. On the converse, bronze dragons are described as being fascinated by warfare and always ready to join a war for a just cause. I have a further idea of setting up a famed mercenary company led by a bronze dragon in humanoid form. Thanks for your suggestions. I think the reason there's a lack of chromatics is 1) I've mostly been going off their evil natures as established in the MM and Fizban's and the like, and I just don't currently have much in the way of evil gods (see this other thread on that topic: [URL="https://www.enworld.org/threads/the-role-and-purpose-of-evil-gods.682680/"]D&D General - The Role and Purpose of Evil Gods[/URL]). I suppose I could make it so the archdevils and demon lords are also secretly dragons, though. ;) [/QUOTE]
