I find the oft repeated sentiment that game rules are allowed to define morality above and beyond common sense disturbing at best.

Man, that dragon can REPRODUCE.

That's a lot of family.

 

[Klaus]

Oh... I don't find that rule anywhere. According to SRD black dragon is always chaotic evil and half dragons are same as their dragon parent. So by RAW, those were all evil creatures he slaid. Even the eggs.

Now there might be some setting specific changes to this, but if you're playing Eberron (or any other setting with the change) don't expect that others do.

Try "Alignment", in the 3.0/3.5 MM. "Always Chaotic Evil" means that a vast majority (iirc, about 80%) of the species is of the given alignment, but exceptions still do exist.

Oh come on game rules are allowed to define morality in a GAME.

Dragons will mate with anyone and anything, just check how many half-dragon whatevers are around. I am just waiting to hear of a half-dragon rock, or a half-dragon tree.

It is more likely that it hit every dragon descended from both the maternal and paternal grand parents, or great grand parents, or something of that sort. So a whole lot of cousins and 2nd cousins are probably wondering what the hell hit them right now.

If it was not for the fact that this is entirely secondary to the Xykon plot, this is the sort of thing that I would happily de-rail my campaign for if a player pulled it off. In my campaigns, Takhisis / Tiamat would certainly take a very direct interest in the caster who pulled off something like that, and would be made to pay very dearly for it.

Half-Dragon Earth Elemental? Half-Dragon Treant?

I want that spell

 

[Vorput]

::blinks:: Wow... didn't see that coming.

Poor bloodthirsty corrupt murderous lizards...

Thus you have all the sorcerers descendant from those half-dragons.

So, you have a lot of sorcerers with a certain black dragon lineage, and all their human / humanoid relatives lined up for the chopping block too...
