Soaring Skies - Dragon Q&A!

[Munchkin]

Well, we had to do something badass to start off 2021, no?

As a start to a new Youtube channel for Standing Trials, which will feature a lot of Q&A's, some interviews about new creations and locations, and overall a platform to bring you guys new and exciting stuff - we are doing a Q&A about the winged scaley bois themselves.

So grab your popcorn and ask all the questions you can think of for the future of Dragons! We'll be keeping answers both informative and vague, so we can aim to answers all the questions asked without taking two hours of watch time

On the 22nd of January I'll lock this thread and we'll start the recording, so get those questions in! Look forward to seeing what you all ask

[Praetorum]

1) You've already mentioned that Dragons will be available after a cumulative 2500 skill points, but are there any other restrictions on who can become a dragon buddy (aside from the personality of the dragon in question)? Magic, marks, revelation, other?

2) Will you only release dragons once you've finished all the ones you have planned, or do you plan to start rolling them out as you go along?

3) Are dragons mobile? That is, will there be specific locations associated with them, or will they do like immortals and wander around?

4) How will dragons get along with immortals who they share domains with?

5) Pocket.... dragon.... bls info. How cuddle-able are they? Can you smooch them on their tiny lil heads?

[Kirei Qe'Azour]

1. Is it possible to be noticed (marked, blessed, etc.) by more than one dragon the way it is with the Immortals?

2. How exactly does one get a cute, cuddly pocket dragon friend?

[Vega]

1. What dragon are you most looking forward to a) being released and b) developing. Why?

2. Finish the sentence(s) "A dragon, an immortal and a biqaj walked into a bar......... "

3. What's the biggest IC advantage to bonding with a dragon - and the biggest disadvantage, from your point of view.

4. What do you think makes dragons and their effigy etc, different than getting Immortal marks.

5. Are there actually going to be pocket dragons? If so, can they be evil blood sucking fiends with biiiiiig, cute eyes?

[Hart]

1. One of the announcements mentions dragon plots being available to new PCs and players, but dragon effigies are Tier 2. Does that mean that players might have dragon-related plots, but just be unable to be "marked" by the dragons involved? Do you need to be Tier 2 to get a dragonling and/or a pocket dragon?

2. One of the announcements mentions that dragonlings can get more powers. How do they do this? Is it related to a player's leveling in an effigy, or is it unrelated to that?

3. Do pocket dragons level? How are pocket dragons related to dragons and dragonlings?

4. How do effigies level? Are they leveled the same way Tier 2 skills are leveled?

5. Frosvinndur was located beyond the Barriers. Are all dragons beyond the Barriers?

6. Do effigies work beyond the Barriers?

7. Would a dragon or an immortal win in a fight 1v1?

8. If you meet a dragon and the first date goes well, and they give you a dragonling and/or a pocket dragon, but then the second date doesn't go so well, or the third, and you part ways... do you have to give back the dragonling and/or pocket dragon?

9. Dragonborn???

[Woe]

1. Will effigy's changes on a character result in 'always on' physical cosmetic changes to the character?

2. Will players be able to interact with the dragon that chose them for an effigy?

3. How is the relaionship tended to be defined with a dragon? Is it like a partnership, a religion, a master/servant relationship? Does it differ based on the dragon?

4. Can a dragon allow mortalborn and mages to travel extensively beyond the barriers?

[Finnegan O'Connor]

1. How many Dragon eggs does it take to break the world record for the largest Omelette on Idalos?

2. What's the air speed velocity of an unladen dragon?

3. How rare are Dragon encounters?

4. Dragons have probably been the longest in the works of any lore on ST. Why do you think everyone likes Dragons so much? What, in your view, is their appeal?

Oh, and since I'm not around here much: a belated happy new year and best wishes to you all! Let's hope it'll be better than the year that shall not be named

[Vega]

76. Weren't they called "teacup" dragons?

[Rei'sari]

Will there be different kinds of pocket/teacup dragons? Not just ones from different dragons, but ones with varying levels of intelligence that can be pets/companions/etc.?

[Faith Augustin]

Will there be different kinds of pocket/teacup dragons? Not just ones from different dragons, but ones with varying levels of intelligence that can be pets/companions/etc.?

Will pocket / teacup dragons actually exist?
