[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 9569496, member: 2067"] Which is backwards. The name comes from the slain black dragon, and if you want something that is evocative of the setting, you can be prepared to care about the history and context of the setting. We don't need to Christopher Columbus this and call something that's not from India an Indian just because we expect it to be. Plus, if you want an order of knights linked to the Amethyst dragon, you can do much much better than "purple dragon knight." Hell, I'd say there's a much better "dragon ally" class that this version of the PDK is that doesn't try to hard to incorporate the purple dragons into it. Just not using it is also an option. Make your dragon knight class and just call it a Dragon Knight, and no one will care. When you're making a book about a setting, you should probably respect the lore of that setting. Or just don't be a coward about making a new thing and actually call it a new thing. [/QUOTE]
