Many things. If you've got more of a hide going on than a set of scales, some of them are pretty good at this hot oil massage thing they do sometimes.

As a note, it's only really, "hot," if your body's not fueled by elemental fire or similar. It has a tendency to, uh, according to the one I've hired, "deep fry," their hands as they're working. He had pictures. It's not pretty.

High.

Well no shit, but how high?

I mean, come to think of it, the party is almost entirely Metallic dragons in-game. Saint George is lawful good, so I doubt they'll have a reason to fight him unless I pull some bullshit "evil saint" thing.

It's actually so weird that they all decided to play metallic dragons. I feel like Tiamat is judging us every time we play the game.

I hate to say it, but Georgius is at least demigod level. I mean, "Saint," is right in his name, and major religions take that shit pretty damn seriously. Check the book on making gods and demigods for whatever system you're using, and it should tell you about what it'll be.

Depends on what you're doing, but the E6 thumb-rule of "surpassing level 6 is roughly equivalent to surpassing humanity" is a good one. Assuming you want this character to be seriously legendary and can balance around them being so strong... take the highest-level NPC you were otherwise planning to use, up the CR by two, slap on the Saint template (assuming 3.5e), and go to town.

For Tiamat's sake, the guy's not just a human, he's a human SAINT.

>>
>>44220884
True.

I mean, doesn't George get all kinds of crazy bonuses against evil dragons as well? I imagine he would, considering how he is typically portrayed in human lore.

I remember my mom telling me stories about how George would come and slay me in my sleep if I was bad. Good times.

Okay help me out /tg/.

A girl in my group recently came out as an anthrophile, made a big deal of it too. She's a red for anyone wondering.

We were all cool about it but she's kind of pushing it. Her fighter she's running has a human npc husband that she carries around everywhere. They act all lovey-dovey and she spent all of her gear money on their wedding rings. This is during an extended campaign about taking down an industrialized human colony, and she doesn't have armor that can withstand cannons. It slowed us down when we were storming the walls.

In the last session she started doing some weird shit, carrying him in her mouth, squeezing him, etc. and I'm worried she'll turn this into some kind of humie-loving magical realm garbage if it gets any worse. I mean I'm down for a virgin sacrifice every harvest or two but this is getting out of control.

Any experienced GMs know how to deal with this?

Depends on the human. For women, it usually goes to the stomach, waist, butt, and chest as those weird, "breast," things that other mammals get only when they're pregnant or nursing their young. For men, yes, it goes primarily to the stomach.

It also depends on their lineage; what would happen to their parents would likely happen to them as well.

No, the weird little hairless apes have done a lot of really weird study into physical traits being passed on along family lines. On one of my raids into the local town, I-

Well, it's a bit embarrassing, but one of them got the bright idea to ram a cartload of black powder into me and toss a torch into it as he jumped off.

I landed on my back in a bookstore, with one of my wings screwed up, and books caught or skewered on some of my spines. I managed to get out before their guards got to me, and acquired, in addition to eating some of their livestock and freeing several more and scaring them in the general direction of my lair, several new pieces of literature, among them a treatise on what they're calling, "genetics," and how it applies to, not just themselves, but to plants and other animals.

The little bastards are weird, but you have to admire their ability to get a job done. Or, in some cases, to overthink something to the point of near-insanity.

Shit got out of hand really fast.

For context, my wyrm buddy (fucking amazing cleric, by the way) drew us up some really sick art, and he took on a pet wyvern somewhere along our last campaign. She sits on his shoulder and it's cute, harmless fun.

This red, though, wanted a human pet after, which I allowed since his damage was laughable and he didn't talk much. Like a week later she came out and we all had a big "OH SHIT" moment.

She's really touchy about the whole human thing and I don't want to scare her off, I mean she's been a great player up till now. It's just the last two sessions where things started to go dragonfruit. I'm hoping it wears off but shit is falling apart fast. I know she occasionally draws for /d/rakes and I'm worried we're going to see some humie vore or scale-play or something soon. I can't deal.

>>
>>44221346
Nigga, you got a cheap-ass seer, or some bard trying to pass himself off as the real deal so as not to piss you off.
There are plenty of worlds like that.
Some worlds even watch replications of other worlds on rectangular scrying glasses, but- get this- they don't actually know the other worlds exist, they just happen to write stuff that matches what actually happens in those worlds.
Isn't that some weird shit?

>>44221331
No, he looked about half-insane, though. Seriously, I round a corner at a dead run, chasing this upstart adventurer on a horse, amusing myself mid-raid, y'know? I skid into the turn and just stop. He's standing there, one leg on the side of this small cart, the other in the driver's seat, with no horse hooked to the front.

There's two pairs of bright red painted wooden barrels in the back, and a few other miscellaneous casks of the stuff. He's holding a torch in one hand, and a rope in the other. A rope attached to a wooden block on one of the wheels.

Before I can even react, he yanks the rope, and it starts rolling towards me. He's yelling something, I didn't catch it; something about the feeling of a horse hitch slamming into my neck made that, and getting any traction, a little difficult.

Next thing I know, he's jumped off, tossed the torch into the cart, and then I'm on my back, dizzy, sore, one wing throbbing in that one way where you know something's broken, and covered in books. The rest is pretty obvious.

>>44221480
The problem with adventurers isn't that they exist, it's that they come in groups. If it was one at a time, it'd be fine; a knight that has his stupid little heart set on slaying a dragon is easy to kill. A knight being backed up by a healer, a wizard lobbing explosive spells, and a rogue that you didn't know was there until it stabbed you in the middle of the back? That's a lot harder, let me tell you.

So I've been reading this really popular human book series about these kids at a wizard school and I was kind of getting into it but then the antagonist shows up. And his name was fucking "Draco". You know, I thought we were past this. If I can find a pen big enough, maybe I should write a book where the antagonist is a dragon named "Nigger" and see you all like it.

I was raised to believe that it wasn't the size or the number of limbs that make a dragon, but how much money is in his hoard, and how many fear or respect him.

I mean, hell, I'm a crossbreed. Mom was a wyvern, dad was a wingless drake; I've got wings for hands and my tail constantly grows spikes that I can flick off harder than an arbalest. I can't breathe fire, but I can dismount a galloping rider from his horse from half-way to the horizon.

I need multiple floors in my lair to store my entire hoard, and I live close enough to three settlements that they all know about me, but far enough away from all of them that they all have different stories about, and names for, me.

Try to convince them that they should worship you, move them into your lair, and have them adventurer-proof it. The little buggers can be useful, if you give them the chance.

It's for a youngling. The fact that you're giving them anything will get their attention.

Had a Drake who was like that. Was all into the whole /s/oft/s/kin humie shit. Not implying that half the dragons at the table weren't but none the less we were all creeped out when he started talking OOG about getting a Rider.

At that point we all had to stop the game and scorch a line. Once we talked to him about it he clearly explained it was something he read in some old Fantasy scrolls he found at the local atheneum, like real fucking old scrolls.

He was always kind of a sheltered hatchling type, didn't go on the web much and certainly didn't go on 4drag nor /td/, but kind of knew about the fetishy droppings but at the same time wanted to do a serious take on it, like soul bonds from the Drakengard scrolls.

Just flat out say that there must be a line that will be drawn. She goes on /d/rakes, great, keep it on there though. She still wants hot hummie dickings? Her only option is to keep it to non fetishy soul bonding. Otherwise, she can just /drp/ it on /d/rake or /b/ahamut

>All these people doubting that yellow about that human-dominated world

You fuckers have absolutely NO idea. This really old Elven wizard decided to show me it after I killed his entire magical college. So I call him on his bullshit and tell him to open a portal. He does this whole spiel about how it would be impossible and how he needs all sorts of rare gems.

Of course, I have everything he needs in my horde. The rarest item was a diamond the size of an egg. What self-respecting dragon doesn't have at least four dozen of those?

At this point I was banging this other Red, about my age. It was always kind of a "wonder if I should kill her" kind of thing, but we lived pretty far from each other, so we weren't really in that much competition. Plus, I think the chance of betrayal made it hotter.

So he opens this portal. I call her over, because I want to show those insolent whelps what real power is like.

We barely terrorize one village when those guys roll up with some of the scariest shit I have ever seen. I swear to god, Tiamat would have fled if she saw the stuff they were throwing at us. And it was just two humans! One was black and the other was this older guy, both in those weird black dress clothes the humans wear to weddings. They had some kind of energy weapons. One of them clipped my companion's wing and she exploded into a million pieces. An ancient red, dead in one hit!

I'm not even ashamed to admit that I flew out of there as fast as I could. The crazy part is, they chased me! They were actually mad at each other that they couldn't catch me.

The weird thing is, they didn't call each other by name. They just used letters. Maybe some kind of cult of the men in dark clothing?

I don't know. All I know is that I got back, destroyed that fucking portal, and murdered that wizard.

So, you younglings. Don't get arrogant and go universe-hopping looking to prove how powerful you are. You'll liable to get your fucking head blown off.

So I'm outside with some friends, right? We're just having fun, seeing how far we can knock cows by hitting them with our tails. Sure, it's kind of a hatchling's sport, but it's good to get outside once in a while, right?
So it's me, another green, and our blue friend, trying to pelt these terrified cows and hit inside the city walls, when this rank fucking smell comes creeping over us.
Turns out a new black dragon moved into the area, and he doesn't seem to know anything about personal hygiene. Smelled like death and decay before we could even see him. He came closer, and the smell was hitting like a wall, we were tearing up. He told us he was new here, asked if he could join us. Naturally, we told him to get lost.

See that's the weird thing, I have a Hatchling brother who's one of those odd types, you know?

Was always less into the domination hoarding thing and more or less had a wanderlust deal going on. Much like everybody else in my line but it was potent with him.

During his travels he encountered one of those Gem drakes, those weird, freaky dragons that are more crystal than dragon, you know? Ended up meeting one with a Scryer who was experimenting on him, yeah, that kind of freak. Was using the gemstone in his scale to focus his magic, which made him able to scribe thousands of other worlds, more than any other Scryer can. Said that he stayed with them for several moons, watching these other worlds, but one he came upon was just like described. Only found one of them though. Said there was something seriously fucking wrong with the humans though, the Scryer had apparently been studying the world though, showed him a ton of his scrolls and notes on the world, siad it was because the Humans were thinking purely with their nethers that they were able to achieve so much.

Said it was because of their desire to fuck everything, even the laws of nature itself, they had a completely mad view of how the real world worked, which only enhanced their vast innate magic, allowing them to invent all sorts of impossible things. The fuckers were able to invent all this "scientific" stuff because they thought that magic didn't exist, despite the fact that they themselves were using it.

Plan to go visit them after the thaw. Because the thought that the only reason that they haven't invaded our world, is because they don't think it exists, sounds like a fantastic setting for my next campaign.

Ugh, those fuckers are the worst, especially when they try to make shit sexual. I had the "joy" of knowing a chromatic that fought everything under the tiamat damned sun to try and find something that could easily dominate her in a fight since she got off on that shit. Tried her hand at taking on a pair of tarrasques which went about as well as you'd expect. I wouldn't have had too much of an issue with that if she had actually fled when she could rather than trying to get one of the tarrasques to mate with her afterwards. I didn't raise a goddamned claw when they started to eat her. Scary thing is; i'm sure being eaten was another fetish of hers.

That's not even a dragon!), and this homebrew "sword dragon" race that apparently has claws sharp enough to cut through diamond dragonscales as easily as human fat and moves twice as fast as a chromatic dragon.

I'm not sure if I should even continue with this game or if I should roll up said yellow dragon and try to drag everyone down to hell with me.

You could do it. Fuck, I'd play in it. I've killed so many humans that it would almost be a nice change if they were hunting me for once. At the very least, it sounds kind of scary.

I mean, you fight wizards all the time, and shit's easy. Imagine if you're fighting normal, boring, tasty humans with crazy technology. It feels spooky just thinking about it.
>>
>>44222949
Yeah, imagine if bows could kill you in one shot. Any human could be a potential death sentence. Drives a chill down my spine. We'd be extinct in a matter of months.
>>
>>44222919
Do it. Include a complicated backstory about how you're just trying to retrieve yer wee little gnome slaves for your hoard and you honestly give no fucks about collateral damage(as usual), cause this setting sounds absurd already.
>>
>>44222949
Sounds stupid as fuck, honestly. It would be like if cattle became the dominant race. There's fantasy, and then there's just plain stupid.This is the latter.
>>
>>44222993
>"Were me weeeh men!"
>>
>>44222985
At that point, we cut our loses and surrender. Better alive than dead, right?

Maybe we could get jobs carrying cargo or doing financial work.

Holy fuck that sounds so degrading. Thank god that's all just fantasy.

>>44223007
Humans are definitely a step above that. The more powerful ones can kill ancient reds, with a lot of luck and teamwork.

I figured as much but I'm tossing around the idea of running a campaign where various races of dragon, wyrm and drake are aligned with smaller groups of these Humans in exchange for power and wealth.

Sure the epic level humans are no doubt insanely powerful but imagine if you were to use their magic?

So either I go full apocalypse or complete over the top impossible.

Maybe its the fact that i'm mostly Brass in me that wants to do the latter. (Grandsire was actually a Brass, made things awkward between my dam and sire, redish brass, you really can't tell honestly since he more looks like a deep Red, and my dam who is a pure Iron, for a number of centuries after my hatching, when he decided to come see his new offspring)

>>44223007
Nah, it can be done right, you're pitting centuries, if not millennias worth of knowledge and experience against heavily armored and clawed, prey. Like Planer Dragons that somehow got stuck in this weird dimension who have to fight and hide against these Eldritch spawned humans. Obiously since you're RPing epic level Drakes, you're going to be a mite bit stronger and older than most of /dg/ so it could work out if everybody at the slab isn't a complete Kobold.

>>44223026
>doing menial work
No, no, no. Here's what you do:
You use your hoard (wait, keep reading) to buy a lot of human stores, farms and property, and just control all of that instead. Then, over time, you get back even more valuables than you originally had. Then you can use some of that hoard to buy even more human stuff. So you can still be a dragon, have a huge hoard and do whatever you like, but now you have humans doing all the work for you. No more raiding.

I think it works best if you just go full apocalypse. If you can use human magic, there's no way they're going to be a credible threat.

>>44223061
...Huh. That sounds like a really good idea.

Has anybody ever actually tried that? Like, in the real world. That doesn't sound like a bad plan at all.
>>
>>44223072
Well obviously Humans got stronger forms of magic, as far as I know from my Hatchling brother, didn't mention much of it though, from what I remember, it was no exaggeration on >>44221346 's part.

So maybe lesser forms of their magic if they perform a soul bond? Have to be seriously seriously careful with the fetish material that surrounds it but much of the ancient human/drake fantasy scrolls do use it as a way of empowerment. Which, lets be honest here, isn't that unsurprising considering the offspring of humans and other races mating, tend to have their nonhuman aspects oddly enhanced. So pit the collective against strong human magic but force them to interact with friendly humans? Maybe built up cults of worshippers who fight with them? Maybe even forge treaties with other countries late game to take down the larger human threats?

Did meet one of those "Eastern" dragons who tried something like this, though. Manipulated weather in exchange for certain goods. Didn't demand human sacrifices so he didn't live too extravagantly but so long as he performed a slight weather change, some sun during the thaw, calm snow during the freeze, not on demand so they would be entirely dependent on him but enough where even as they got smarter over the generations, it was far smarter to keep him on their side because he also had the ability to destroy their crops for the year, completely ruining their lineage.

Smart drake, but didn't get too large, nor that big of a hoard. Surprisingly stable mate though, but I think that's more because that's how they are over there, what with there being so few of them with the most powerful being of the Celestial level.

hey
HEY
SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU LITTLE SHIT
We paint with the clouds, we sculpt in the crash of waves. We weave epics amongst the skies and seas. We do NOT, as you claim, draw in caves like some filthy ape.
>>
>>44223223
You're right, you just go and destroy the entirety of your achievements when your "King" finds out his whore-mate also mated with his brother when he drank himself into a state of ape like intelligence.

And they then proceed to wage war upon themselves for a few years, destroy each other's empires before one stands victorious... On a pile of dirt and ash with nothing to show for it.

While we, the Elves, fey and when they're not hiding in the mountains, the dwarves, watch befuddled, wondering why the humans didn't learn their lesson from their last generation of spawn.

I get you're not one of the long lived species but at some point, history has to stop repeating itself and you keep missing the point every what? Fifty years or so?
>>
>>44223287
What? I'm just sick of everyone saying that eastern dragons draw in caves.

>>44223287
He thinks you're some sort of nearly-hairless mammal.

>>44223308
>>44223329
Wait, I think there is some serious confusion here, missed the eastern drake painting it so it sounded like >>44223223 was a Hummie trying to justify shitty ape cave drawings with big words.

Unfortunately have dealt with so many of those human superiority shit posters over the centuries, both in and out of /dg/ that I sometimes miss the distinction. Fucking Mods never cleanse them of the board so they just linger around, doing what they do best.

Will admit you Easterns can shape some stunning scapes especially when time really isn't an issue

You know what feels really good? Knowing that you literally own half the town at the base of your mountain. While most of you just sit on your gold, I invested a portion into building that town back when it was a little village. The mortals are so grateful for my patronage that they regularly send me their children to keep me company and my scales polished. They've been doing it for so long they consider it an honor to climb the mountain.

I've had a few adventurers who tried to stop the tradition over the years. They stomp into my lair with all the swagger their tiny bodies can muster and then stop dead in their tracks when they see the town's children (that they are attempting to "rescue") attending to me without force. I've only had to kill one or two of those parties and I really hate losing my tributes as collateral damage; having to part with my loot for compensation to their parents is annoying.
>>

Humans? They don't exist.

>>44223421
>having to part with my loot for compensation to their parents is annoying.
Yeah, just keep on telling yourself that you're the one in charge here.

Why the fuck do you have to compensate them for damage caused by human adventurers? Let them go complain to their guild or whatever thing they call those adventurer organizations.

Also, what is a cyborg and robot?

>>44218742
Taking advantage of, they not only make great spotters, but also falsely believe that they 'own' me and are obligated to feed and care for me. Its an awesome deal, and I don't even have to give up any of my horde

Keep em happy I guess?

I mean, so long as the tributes keep coming in he doesn't have to worry, what he lost can easily be made up over the course of a decade or two, that's what? A short nap? Just have your intermediate say that you must rest so the tributes should be something that will last.

I guess if you're one to indulge in... Geez, don't know if you've heard of it, the few humans I get it from call it "alcohol"? If you have them leave it in barrels in your cave over the course of a nap, it can become incredibly valuable. I sometimes do that where I'll acquire a few barrels from some dwarves in a nearby mountain range, take them back to my cave, rest for a while, bring them back in exchange for a large wagon of mixed wealth, gems and gold, that sort of thing, when I bought the barrels for maybe a small bag of platinum.

Or maybe when I have a group of rowdy adventurers, I throw one of them at them, let them return to the local cities, so damn old that I can't keep track of all the new ones that come and go, and they usually split the profits, usually. At the very least, for a couple decades I don't need to worry about adventurers tromping about my territory.

The random cults that think they're the new greatest hottest thing when they stomp on in trying to cut out my heart for "NoreallyI'mnothewhoscreamsintonguesguys" on the other hand?

>>44223466
Like >>44223543 said, the value of the loot I lose is negligible in the long run. I forgot to mention that I'm also collecting insurance from the townsfolk against raider attacks and the like. It's not terribly much (the folks down the mountain are mostly farmers and craftsmen) but it adds up and I reinvest to keep the town expanding.

>>44223498
Maybe not as a literal god, but when some small-time mortal warlord makes a move on my town, I come down on them with all the force I can muster. If you've blasted a small army of mortals, you know what I'm talking about. Once I'm done, I have their gratitude, devotion, and loyalty. It's going on two hundred years and not once have they betrayed me.
>>
>>44222034
What color are you? Could work to your advantage. Say you raid a Red, and try to take his horde, he thinks you're a hydra this tries to burn the fuck out of you. Then you cone in with your wing claws and fuck his shit up

Its almost a win/win
