Drunk Phil made math mistakes that Krylo didn't. I'll save it until I'm sober again.

So excited that you guys are excited, though.

Fixed.

Wait, whoa, hey whoa.

Are you saying we can have a dragon mount from the start?

This could be awhile.

Anyone can, technically.

I'll try and make up my mind by tomorrow when I get more sleep.

I am so hot for you right now.

I switched out Deep Breathing for Animal Companion, then, and took a point out of Athletics to put in Riding.

Also got Strange Attack, so I guess we should figure out what it does? I'm think either add Holy element (because Crystal Dragon), or just straight up damage.

Answered questionsKrylo, in regards to using Animal Companion's and choosing Strange Attack, previously Truce said that the dragon would be limited to using each of its respective spells equal to the INT rating of my character per session (Since unlimited spells is cheating). Is that acceptable? (In the below example, 3 times per spell due to having 9 INT which is a rating of 3.) Mind you, according to the description of Strange Attack, magic that is learnable by the species can be learned using Animal Companion. Hence why my wyvern learned White Wind (Blue magic) and Invisible (White Magic).

Also, does the Animal Companion aspect "Skilled" stack with the dragoon's skill level? Like if the dragon had a Skilled bonus to synthesis, does it stack with my character's synthesis skill level if I tried to make an item?

Additionally, does the dragon automatically gain any other traits to start with? For example, at level 20, it practically gains the ability "Packrat". By level 30, it gains Mount and Flight. Does it also have any other abilities worth noting like Loyal, Familiarity or Sentience as a result of the close-knit dragoon relationship with a dragon? As before, it was very much the case with Truce, but I'm asking you.

Anyhow, here is my character sheet as it is.





Name: Ark
Age: 201
Race: Android
Class: Dragoon
Appearance: A tall android who appears even more towering when fully decked in heavy armor and shield. From under his armor, one can see his left arm was replaced by a mechanical graft and that one of his eyes was likewise substituted for an unerring robotic counterpart. His hair a dark tint of mottled brown kinda like tree bark. Has an expression that seems to always be stuck in a perpetual solemn unjoking and unflinching gaze.

Background: For many years, this android laid dormant in an ancient ruin, left undisturbed until only recently when a dragon and its brood took residence. Upon finding his inert body, out of curiousity of examining this relic of old, they fiddled with him and accidently triggered his life spark, animating him to be able to think, move and speak. The infantile wyvern, fascinated by this living toy, figuratively attached itself to him, and thus Ark was spared the risk of being torn apart by its defensive guardian. The parent, content to know its child had a new appointed guardian, left shortly after out of laziness. Delaying for a few months to restore his functions, Ark left with his un-named dragon companion to see how the world was changed since his previous activation.

Traits: Inhuman Might, Artisan

Extra note: No need to eat or drink. Can sense living creatures around him as part of his graft.

Everything else is perfectly sound.

You had me digging through the book and my notes, trying to find out where I was getting 'extra' skill points.


Glad everything looks alright, excited for this to begin.

[Dracorion]

Ah, so we're going with normal Wyvern techs for Strange Attacks?

A) I looked through your character sheet for the last RP and I didn't see Animal Companion anywhere, so I assumed that you'd stick to it this time around and take it later.
B) Stop coming up with awesome things. I mean, why the hell wouldn't I?

No matter what the risk or consequence, he will stop at nothing to attain whatever his heart desires at that particular moment.

First time fiddlin' with the system. If you spot something, feel free to let me know.

[Menarker]

The thing I find funniest about Drac giving his pet dragon the mount trait, is that until several levels pass, it'll be the size of a football. An infant. The total size different is mind-boggling.

A full grown Dragoon mounting an infant dragon and expecting to ride it.

=P

Of course, one of the OTHER major reasons why I'm not doing that myself is because my character is an android probably weighing over 300 lbs BEFORE his equipment including heavy armor. Literally, he's one heavy hunk of junk.
