[QUOTE="modred, post: 3435032, member: 51185"] well. just a small note, "cannibal" means a person that eats of their own species, not a person that eats humans (though that meaning has been used, I have this Bestiary that uses the word to describe all the things in it that eat humans). If you want a word for a human eater, there's Anthro.. *goes gets book* anthropophagi. Although that same book uses cannibal to mean a person that eats humans, in the description. I suppose it's just whatever you want it to mean. *shrugs* I have thought of this... use of shape shifting... before, when I was wondering about Half-Dragons and Half-Fiends. Dragons obviously can't... with humans, it's reptile-mammal. Which leads you to wonder why they've got wings and scales... I figured the magic in the blood or something... *shakes off* I'm happy someone found a good use for this... perverted idea. By 'good use' I mean the riddle. Riddles are good... yes. well. At least it was an interesting idea (I kept wondering about that cannibal thing...) hey, maybe your druid could find a dragon in disguise as a farm animal... [u]that[/u] would be a good way to discourage such behavior in future from druids. I'm assuming the dragon would kill the druid. Funnily enough, good and evil dragons might both teach that lesson just as well as each other (I can see the fun loving good dragons having fun with the thought of guarding humans while pretending to be their food:)). Good Nightmares, then. [/QUOTE]
