[QUOTE="Fieari, post: 3147054, member: 16221"] Statting up some more dragon gods for fun. I assume Typhon (mentioned in the epic dragon intro) is the Great, Great, Great Wyrm Timber Dragon that you had planned? However, I found an interesting little thing. I would presuppose that Yggdrasil, if not merely an artifact, would be an Elder God in its own right, seeing as a skyfather went to get knowledge from it (I would think that it would have to be a higher rank for this, you see). I wanted to see what age category a Timer Dragon would have to be to have been one of the first life forms on the planet earth, from the Triassic era. By the age category chart, an epic dragon would need to have 24 age categories, exactly, to be this old. 24 epic dragon age categories, by coincidence, happens to be the threshold for Elder Gods, exactly. Timber Dragons look like trees... It's a bit more work to add 12 age categories than to add a mere two, but I'm working on it. It even holds that Yggdrasil, as an Elder God, is sleeping (imprisoned, locked away, according to your cosmology), and thus appears to simply be a tree. The sheer collusion of all these things working together makes me happy. Say it with me! Great, Great, Great, Great, Great, Great, Great, Great, Great, Great Wyrm Timber Dragon! Yggdrasil! [/QUOTE]
