Dragon?

Post by GreatLimmick »

Looks more like a crow to me.

Maybe one of the ones that works for Odin...

Yes there is a certain black featheryness. i remember neither Hugin or Munin having three blue eyes though.

Also that's quite a beak even for a carrion eater, maybe a raptor?. :)

Aheh. The Dragon's design is, uh, fairly heavily influenced by the Raven from Princess Tutu. As such he does look a bit avian. However birds don't usually come with teeth like that.

Teeth? What teeth? What these teeth? Never saw them before!- complete strangers!

Yeah ok, maybe there's some reptile, but my monitor was turned down too far. :(

There are a couple of kinds of bird that have teeth. I forget what they're called, though.

Actually, the IRL ones are pretty small.

If something that size calls itself a dragon, who are we to disagree?

Depends. How big a gun do we have?

i teen to keep mine built into my arms b u that's beside the point. remember that it's a tech nulling field all around them more guns won't work and i would have to return to flesh just to approach were they are now.
the darkness is ever present even in the light.

the perversion doesn't stop just because the sun comes up

if i can make people think and consider their lives even for a moment each day then my life has just that much more meaning

one of the hardest skills i seek to master is the skill of knowing when to shut up

From what I can tell, the field only shuts down technology that manipulates certain forces, like gravity. Simpler technology seems to work just fine so far.

The nulling field prevents gravity-based technology from functioning. Naturally occurring gravity is either unaffected or being allowed to function by whatever technology creates the field.

Thus, Sissy's eye-fi can translate glyphs, Eliza's implants (except her lifters) remain fully functional, and so on. As to why this is, and the significance of the dais with the staff-shaped indentation, the dragon, and the field, well, I could just write it out in a paragraph or two.

But that would be telling.

year my tech is pretty old school. it's mega man universe based. i supposed i could have upgraded but saw very little reason to past a belt mounted robotizer (ie a flesh to metal and vice versa machine ) it lets me blend in not robotic worlds
