[QUOTE="reapersaurus, post: 26797, member: 1194"] James, _I_ think you should read what i wrote again. You are begining to sound cartoonish. Here, I'll quote myself so you don't have to scroll and hurt your finger. LOL ;) Now, assuming you read it this time, you'll see i never mentioned dragons being smarter than the party wizard. I said that there are [b]monsters[/b] that are smarter than the party. You know... those things in worlds OTHER than dragons. :) Do you think the PC's are the smartest creatures on your world? That they are the first to do these things they do? And why do you think that just because there's a wizard that is smart in the party, that suddenly the party as a whole is super-smart? Like that INT score transfers to everything they do as a party, and all members. And since when is high INT score required to be devious and crafty, or simply know what the heck to do with your own body? It seems that you are beginning to paint dragons with a ridiculous cardboard-cutout of a monster's personality. Just because they are typically loners by nature in their big, dark treasure-laden den, doesn't mean that they are restricted to just that behavior. I can easily picture dragons being somewhat social in their youth, especially since they can be killed by many things until they grow big and strong. They would have territorial battles, coming up against bigger and stronger dragons, learning their limits, making friend and enemy dragons and other creatures... [i]just like everything else does.[/i] And their learning wouldn't stop there - i thought dragons were notorious for taking humans and liking stories told. Trust me, if a dragon was curious about adventurers (and only a suicidal one wouldn't), they'd know the stuff they could do soon enough. And it's funny that you are criticising me for thinking that dragons can turn to human form, when every single one of them can, either by innate spell ability, or by spells as they grow. It's all well and good to discuss dragons, but let's keep the jabs and cuts to a nice manageable level, agreed? ;) [/QUOTE]
