[QUOTE="roguerouge, post: 5232988, member: 13855"] I've got to question this "they're children" line. They're NOT normal. They were born with evil tendencies and raised to be evil for ten years. More than that, they're children who go around armed with the equivalent of two knives and a short sword. And that's before taking into account their ability to burrow and fly. I'm not sure that these are basically 5 year-olds. That having been said, obviously selling sentient beings into slavery would be a bad thing for a CG character to do. Trust me, I have that part under control. The zoo might fit your description, but listed above as well are some viable foster homes that either reform the dragons or channel their instincts into productive channels. Basically, my goal is to give the player an out if she doesn't want to spend game time laboriously raising baby dragons, especially since we've already role played something similar. It's not fair if I give her a choice of killing the baby dragons in combat, selling the dragons into slavery or raising them in-game. That's no choice at all. Owl bear chicks go for 3,000 gp each, with a professional trainer costing 2,000 gp to train one for you. What do you think a very young dragon would be worth? My concern about having the player set the initial price is that she's a bard. She's got tons of skills and bardic knowledge. The player's going to ask me what a reasonable price would be. [/QUOTE]
