[Suggestion] [.981] Make Sarog/dragon Int and Charisma reasonably high

from Elemental Forums

I just managed to win the dragon Sarog to my cause by returning her stolen egg to her. I'm utterly mystified at how she could have sent me on such a quest and responded 'reasonably' to my returning her egg when it turns out that she only has an Intelligence of 1.

Maybe the Charisma of 1 makes sense if the humans and fallen are generally raised to see dragons as horrific monsters, but even that seems pretty odd for a creature that can act as a sort of freelance nation-in-one-unit on the battlefield after having chosen to join the battle as a 'civilized' exchange of favors.

Edit: Stupid me quite belatedly noticed that Sarog (all dragons?) has only 2 Movement. The art should lose the wings, or that should be at least 2 and wouldn't be silly at 4 or 5.

Yea ... I could see Dragons with a HIGH intelligence, caveat being it has a "Solitary" AI protocol.

 

Of course, you could make the occasional Dragon to raise "fiend armies" like the Arch Demon in Dragon Age ;)

Such a dragon would probably be younger "juvenile or newly Mature" and be part of one of the more hot-blooded, powerhungry races (in DnD terms most likely a Red Dragon or Green dragon ... or at the opposite side of the alignment coin a Brass or Copper Dragon)

 

such dragons could probably be considered their own faction, or a "Minor Sovereign" with the ability to have resources, own cities, hire mercenary armies (of humans) and of course intimidate animals, monsters, and minor demons to work for them.
