This chart is for referance to the following class:
The (+) Indicates the unknown maximum of that of a Monster(NPC) Dragon. The (*) Inidcates a requirement there in of a skill or group of skill minimums for the next age to come of place.
Age: Requirements for next age group:
-1 50 wrestling/50 tactics/50 anatomy/25 magery
-100 80 wrestling/80 tactics/80 anatomy/50 magery/25 hiding
-500 100 wrestling/100 tactics/100 anatomy/80 magery/60 hiding/
25 item id/25 meditation/25 spell resistance
-1,000 100 wrestling/100 tactics/100 anatomy/100 magery/100 hiding/
50 item id/50 meditation/50 spell resistance
-2,500 100 wrestling/100 tactics/100 anatomy/100 magery/100 hiding/
100 item id/100 meditation/100 spell resistance
Skills Allowed:
At the last stage the requirements represent the skills needed to obtain the title "great" in their name. Such as "Kha'zahdur the 'Great' Black Scourge.
The two charts correspond in another showing that you require both ability and skill minimums to achieve another age group. Also in turn.. a dragon can not gain in abilities or skills without the further aging of another.
Example:
Kha'Zahdur is a 2nd age dragon(-Black Dragon 100* 125/100/80 Blackrock Drake/-100 80 wrestling/80 tactics/80 anatomy/50 magery/25 hiding) Meaning he is at the age of 1-99 and his skills are below what is listed above, but above that listed for age 1. Also in turn is that his abilities is that of below the listed age for 100 and above that of the age of 1.
So Kha'zahdur could currently be at a STR of (80-124) DEX of (20-99) INT of (15-79), with a skill range of (50-79.9) wrestling/(50-79.9) tactics/(50-79.9) anatomy/(0-49.9) magery/(0-24.9) hiding. However unless he is at all skills and ability stage jumps... he can not age or gain in skills anymore, until he is leveled up.

Purpose: Arcodia seems to lack something that has a true drawing to it. Yes someone can kill dragons all day and say.. "I am a dragon slayer", and have what credit other then they had killed dragons for like 4 weeks of play and killed hundreds. What is missing here is there is no ONE dragon that is a goal to kill. There is no Exchange between these Dragons and Characters.. There is no challenge. A Dragon is supposed to be so feared yet so rare.. that when one is killed.. thousands of people try to flock to the location to see what gold in what uncovered place may hide from the slayers. Here?? We see nothing. No group of people hunting ONE dragon in a group of 10 or 20 people. I would like to see that in the lands... See a chamber FILLED with gold... Gold that upon slaying...a player would be willing to allow others to loot their treasure whorde.
I for one would gladly as a ghost point out a hidden trove of treasure for my slayers. This would give players a reason to hunt us... Besides now they can lay claim to this by.."I slew the Great Wyrm Kha'Zahdur, the Black Scourge", and would have some reverie. This would also make it more IDEALISITC on killing Dragons, of which are supposed to be so great, that a single warrior that can kill one... should be one in one-hundred thousand warriors and not one in a twenty.
**********
Underlings: Becuase they are Dragons and generally feared.. reguardless of their alignment, they cannot enter towns. These Player Dragons will need the use of underlings to gather resources required.. or even front buisiness dealings. Such as will occur when a Player Dragon will wish to aquire a large ammount of Gems that it is having a hard time being able to acquire. Or possably the dragon needs to lie low because of a recent events that leave him hunted for.. and he is in need of LOTS of food.
**********
Role-Play: "Council of Wyrms" is a collection of the group of dragon players brought together to Role-Play a commitee to discuss the comings and goings in the realms. Such as the balance of power. Breaking of Protocals amoung other dragons.. and to guide the young. Also this Council will help those in question of what to do for quests and encounters. Or even better ways to RP via climate, location, decoration of there Lairs, and the extra.
**********
This is what I would like to attempt to prove to you that this system works.. I ask that you allow me to test this race with open knowledge to other players.. for them to approve or disapprove.. in this time I will not engage in combat with players.. But will WILLINGLG engage in monster PVP and try various things to show to you if i made money to fast, to slow, found a possable exploit, or anything other for that matter.
Dragon Player: Keenan M. Leary Dragon's Name: Li'aulo'kha'zahdur'ilin'al (or for short: Aulo'Kha) Dragon's Age: 0-1 Dragon's Sub-Race: Black Dragon Alignment: Chaotic Evil (Will attack anything that seems to sate his stomach or amuse him)
Info: Aulo'Kha, is known as "the Black Scourge". He lives in a cave near the swamps of (pick a location),surrounded by lackies and his way-runners. More then not he will eat those coming into his domain, or char them to a puddle of acid for the joy of their screams.
Aulo'Kha has a scar down the left eye from brow to throat. A viscious scar that almost claimed his life. While a young wyrm he grappled with a kraken on the shores of shame, within the underground labrynth.
I know that because of this there is more of a chance of being denied... But if so I would like be in the company of the descision makers so that I may have a shot of arguing each point they do not like and present evidence to support my request. Thank you,
Sincerely,
Keenan M. Leary
