[QUOTE="Gez, post: 1209836, member: 1328"] Well, I think 16777216 different chromatic dragons would be nice. It would shut down all the needs that people have to "complete the color wheel" as if dragons were spawned by painting sets. That said, less trollishly and on the initial topic; I would not use the half-dragon template for dragons. I don't see why a half-white red dragon would be smarter and stronger than a red dragon. Sure, superiority of the hybrids and all that; but the half-dragon type is destined to bring a creature to dragonhood. What I would do is use the mother as the base dragon, and simply give the offspring the element immunity and main breath weapon of the father, in addition to everything from the mother. So, a half-white red dragon would be immune to fire and cold, and could use its breath weapon for either a cone of fire or a cone of cold. A half-brass gold dragon would be immune to fire, and would have three types of breath weapons: line of fire, cone of fire, cone of weakening gas. [/QUOTE]
