-falls over from all the ideas thwacking into her head- Wow... I was up late with my friend Jon watching amusing anime, and up early this morning to watch him leave... so I'm a bit dippy at the moment, but enough of my drivel. :-}

Mmkay... -grin- To DaWn, as to innate breed-powers and things, I'll use Bob as an example. He is a Tailus dragon, a breed created by yours truly. Yes, I created a breed, but he's the only instance of it on the game and he's most certainly not a superpower because he's a Tailus. There are two kinds of Taili (plural of Tailus), Air Taili and Water Taili, and each specific dragon of that breed is born as an Air, a Water or a combination thereof. Bob is primarily Air but also has gills. Does anyone remember the little board where you used to be able to get dinky innate breed-powers approved? That's where Bob got his mini-ability to alter windcurrents slightly, ie create updrafts et cetera. Other than that, the only thing that makes Bob 'Air' primarily is his physical traits: long, agile wings, a small but powerful frame, and his sharp senses and excellent agility. In my ideal world, that's how all dragon breeds on this game would work except for a few super-powers. But I'm going to be good, diplomatic little girl. :-} Just as something of an aside to DaWn that no one else need read unless they feel like it: I love Raistlin as a character, I think he's very cleverly-played and extremely believable in his own way. But, DaWn.... he is undefeatable to an extent. Bob's fought him once or twice, and he has diamond-encrusted wings, the power of the Mind (you told me he had it all-encompassing, that he'd taken it as his second Shadow power for use only in Everdark), the power of Magic, and his many forms all of which have their own innate powers/advantages etc. Please don't take this the wrong way. :-} I like you as a player and him in a way as a very cleverly-created and played character, but I do believe that in relation to so-called 'normal' dragons like Bob, he's overmuch.

I would babble on endlessly some more but I basically just would be saying, "I agree with you, and then this and that and the other," so I'll spare you that, go have lunch, make sure I'm done packing, and then get on the plane. See you all sometime possibly tomorrow, when I get back to England supremely jetlagged. :-} Love y'all.

[I know a bit about D&D (My friend last year was obsessed! He forced us all to play... it was terrible as no one wanted to really pay attention.), but mainly I was thinking about a series I read that was recommended to me by the same friend who introduced me to D&D. *Grin* I thought that while you were taking the drows' side, I might as well be on the other side, eh?]

The Shadow's might not be- but it always feels like they are. I think it has something to do with their arrogant leader and his player... just joking! Also, while we're still on the subject of the Shadows, I had this strange thought/request that I never asked of you. I was thinking that maybe Pedro could be turned fully dragon? Strange, isn't it, that someone who so venemently opposes Shadows would ask that, hm? Anyways, it was just a question as Pedro, like Tarquin, is the son of the late Osiris - who I was led to believe was Shadow, or something like that.

But... but... if you take Raistlin away, who will we be able to lay all the blame on??!! You simply can't take him away! You can't! You can't!

Besides, I look around in Everdark every once and a while, and his heirs seem to be worse than him. Frankly, I think I'd rather if you stuck with him as the Shadow Lord.

Also, to expand upon Lyss' idea, why don't we say that after Raistlin brought back two dragons to life an extraordinary gift was placed upon the Shadows? The gift was that those chosen to bear the gift by Raistlin could bring dragons back to the dead. But, they have to trade their life for such a thing to take place.

[That was all written last night before Sarah and Fran decided to show up... so, continuing....]

Let's see... oh yes, all right, "true" breeds. Whatever, fine, yadda yadda.

Whoa - it's 2:20 in the afternoon and I'm still tired.

I need a nap.

Expage- PLEASE NOT! I sincerely, with all my beating heart, HATE that browser/server/thingie! It is the most annoying thing to use and it also has a limited amount of space. We don't have to use geocities, but this is where I'm putting my foot down and through the floor. NOT EXPAGE.

Anyways.

That was a lot of stuff!!! Anywho, everybody has good ideas, we just have to put them together. As for how I think leadership should go for this new section, I believe that we should indeed have a council of representatives. I know it didn't work very well for the WHOLE of CM, but for just that one particular section of dragons', I belive we could make it work. One representative (most likely the King or Queen) can be choosen from each breed. I was planning on using geocities because I am most familiar with it, for creating the new board. I'm going to go ahead and get on it started now seeing as it will take me a while to get it finished.

As another note, I will be leaving for Arizona tomarrow until probably Tuesday. My grandfather is very sick and we wanted to see him before he passed away. I probably won't be active during that time period, seeing as I don't know anything about my grandparents computer or if we'll be at the hospital too much for me to bother. Talk to you all later.
