• Dragons!

• Dan brings up an old review of Earthdawn that says the game “does dragons right.”

• In Earthdawn, dragons are characters. They have goals and motivations, sometimes in line with the PCs, sometimes not.

• Dragons are not, generally, “nice.” They tend to take the long view and may have an alien mindset of a kind.

• Dragons might be fond of individual Namegivers but might not necessarily “care” about them as we might think of that.

• Summary of native dragon abilities.

• Very formal society; rituals and ceremonies of all kinds that allow them to exist as a society and minimize direct violent conflict.

• An overview of draconic life cycle. Eggs are held by Great Dragons, hatchlings educated by their guardian.

• Adolescence (and resemblance to wyverns).

• Josh spins some theories and potential hooks related to the similarity.

• Final form relates to guardian dragon type (and a basic overview of the four types).
