I wasn't aware there was a manuel on monsters, but I think it foolish.1) the point of this game is RP not how many monsters there are.2) Why in the world if this is a RP game are we using other peoples ideas about these monster? Why not make are own unique looking forms of these creatures to ad to the RP.3) If dragons are supposed be smart which I have always and liked the idea of. Then a GM or player picked by the GMs should play this creature's role. So all your argueing won't accomplish anything. Because in the end it's their call.

I say you should make it near impossible to kill, add in max parry, close to maximum slashing and concussion, and add in a one handed weapon that can hit two tiles like the beheadder (war axe) can. So that could be like its tail hitting your or something. Give it its own special weapon that it olny drops and you cant craft. And make the drop of the special item(s) rare, like 1 in 50, beacuse of there proable power. What else should i add...

cool yet not cool. this meens that the gms will be able to like almost take down the town with a in game event. see you know how the demons came to twon not that long ago? well that could happen to the town! + they would be huge and would be very hard to kill by yourself! i would say that ten people could take one down in ..... 25 mins, give or take a few. but all i am saying is that hopefulle the people don't make them hard like they are in outher games ( sorry about talking about outher games )

A dragon should be a very rare thing, and very difficult and should take many people to kill.

A dragon should not be a normally spawning monster like demons and worms are in the cave.

in a cave withing a cave! say in the spider cave there is another cave with a dragon! something like that perhaps?

Perhaps the dragon could only appear twice per day and drop a special item when you kill it, such as Askatuul's Icebird Amulet. It would also be nice if the dragon could cast some spells like ra kel qwan.

After reading all this post for the first time, I couldn't agree more with Separdum when he said this:

I want a mob that, if it's killed, it means something.

I mean, sure as a newbie you think, "I'll get that demon one day!" but once you have killed it for the hundreth time, it does seem a lot like killing a zombie (from a newbs perspective). So I think it best to be something worth remembering.
And as for what it could drop when it dies . . . well perhaps:

1) Dragon's Tooth, a trophy for every hunter!
2) Insides, lot's of insides.
3) (New item) Dragon scales, extemely hard to tailor and extremely tough armour (impenatrable to only the best weapons, usually the weapons that killed it . . .).

PLEZ READ THIS IT TOKE A LONG TIME!! ok not to brag or anything but i am a huge dragon fan and like to tell you wha't i have been doing after hermies post. i have looked at some sites and some. i have come up with my ideas for what the dragon drops. 200 insides
500 scales ( can only pick up 50 with the strongest person with nothing on/or in has pack and is one out of 100 scales can one be made useing 75 string evey try ) ( 1 to 100 are the odds )
80 teath ( huge! can only be held 10 with nothing on or in his/her pack )
1 neckless ( what evey color the dragon is the the neckless will be and will rise that skill to be almost perfect ) ( dragon must be left for a hour to turn into a neckless )
goldn wepon ( the person who killed the dragon with the last hit will get a wepon of gold witch would be the wepon he is useing and the wepon he is useing would be turned into gold )
a very rare item ( if the dargon was salyed by less then five person a very rare item would come out of the dragon if they get lucky and the less the people the better the chances. rare items would be something like... a gold ring gemd with evey known gem to this game,but it would let them know who all has one certen ring and that certen gem would go away )
a master book ( only comes from a dargon called apocolpyse it is the rarest dargon of all, it would be a very very very specail in game event. it would take the best of the best to beat one. but only one person at a time can go agenst it. this is a powerfull mage dargon, the most feared also. so you would have to be able to beat 20 gms going at you at once to best one of these things! )

more updates for what i have diged up and plez read this it toke alot of my time!!!

@Ape. Not in your wildest dreams.

Maybe one or two of those items at *most*.

A rare item is worth nothing if everyone has it.

Gold is worth nothing if everyone has it.

I would much rather have 1 of a rare item than 500 of a common one.

If I could, I would read the post that took you so long to write, but too bad the spelling and presentation was so bad that it was too hard to understand.

Just a comment from one of the parts that I understood. Why would you want a gold weapon?

Caranthir the great · Post by **Caranthir the great** » Thu Nov 21, 2002 8:28 am

Gold is rather heavy and soft metal, so you WOULD lose hand to hand combat with opponent who'd had a steel weapon.
Then what would he do? Take the gold weapon from your cold fingers and melt it into bars of gold.

Perhaps looking good, but very unpractical.

ape · Post by **ape** » Thu Nov 21, 2002 1:38 pm

the goldn wepon is jus to look good and to know you beat a dragon and most likele brake if used in battle.

Iqloo · Post by **Iqloo** » Tue Dec 03, 2002 4:39 am

I still like my idea, but after a few weeks this is the new idea of a dragon i have: (some are still the same) 1) It should drop olny ONE inside. 2) the one handed war axe could be in his left hand for instance, and olny attack if your behind it, like its tail. and for being infront of you it should have fist. Maby a claw like weapon that it WOULDNT drop, same with the tail, could you imagine the horror if somone got a hold of a two tile weapon that you can use a shield with, there already enough crime, its increased at least 75%in the last week. 3)Give that bad boy max in every thing. make it so even if you have two shields and max parry it can still hit ya for oh. || that much each. 4) Make him be a master Magic Resistance, Let him cast Ra Kel Qwans, and cast like a diamond four tiles of them, not just one, and if its a powerful one, (like one in 10) Cast Hept Sij and Hept Kel, but not hit every time, so you could run around and dodge it. Give the archers and mages something to keep them awake

. 5)Drops should include an acified longsword of some sort, maby even a full knight set also, the normal one, ya know, plate, knight gloves, knight boots, and a knight shield. that it swolled from a knight that tried to get it before, (and witht the acified longsword, the acid is from its stomach acid swolling the knight, a tad bit of nifty roleplay there) that you would have o repair (like you do Old swords and daggers).(please note the longsword wont be like a Long Axe and reaching two tiles, it would be like erm.. have a Firesword in each hand, maby 3 fireswords, about that power, and speed of a single firesword), and if its the ICe dragon, it could also drop some treat for the mages, like a blessed robe that inceases intel by 125% and a wand that doubles the damage done from spells, None of these items could be created by crafting, olny repaired by crafting. 6) What the dragon looks like: About as tall as a demon, go all out on the decorations on it, Horns, teeth, but make no difference in the ice and fire one beacuse there completely random, if youve read above. Make it move about as fast a as a demon, beacuse if a dragon is walking its not quite that fast as ya know, and make it attack according to what side your on, also listed above, if your on the left or right of it youll get attacked by the tail as well, i forgot to add that above.

disclamer: now i know this sounds like alot but its not that bad, this gave you a detailed and accurate description of a role play dragon that deserves to be on Illarion, I have never heard of being able to skin a dragon, there skin in like rock, praticly invincible, youll have a TERRIBLE time skinning it, and its claws and teeth dont just pop out on its own, the reason i put the armors is beacuse the underbelly isnt really all that stiff, maby about like leather. The drops i think are very accurate considering the previous ones, I myself have never heard of a dragon with gold, if it did its stomach acid would descenergate it instntly. Same with gems if anyone was thinking about putting those in. Please message me if you have any concerns or if you wanna say "Hey Iqloo this is a Great idea". Thank you this is proably the longest thing ive ever typed voulaintiarly, the olny other things would be a school paper, and im sorry if this takes up the whole page, but have no fear for your just about done reading, for now is my signature....
