HAVE I MENTIONED I REEEEALLY LIKE DRAGONS?!!?
Like, reeeally, reeeally....
Been looking more into Dungeons & Dragons since I heard there's a guy in this local Brony club who runs "Pony Pathfinder." I'm rather excited! And when I get excited about things...
I can see me playing a kobold, you know. Little clever things that aspire to be like their dragony ancestors, yet are mostly food for them. Do love me some toadies!
I can see there being an old, old dragon. Grown crotchety, grumpy and mostly harmless with age. Grumble the ShagScale; so old his scales are growing down over his eyes like a whole-face beard. "Dunno how'm the young welps stay alive these here days. Back in mah day, we collected somethin' of personal value for our hordes... like... my bottlecaps n' scrap metal. Gold jist gits yah kilt, yeh know!" Grumble keeps a whole dungeon's worth of Kobolds scurrying around his lair tunnels and other then the few times a month he eats a few when the weather & his joints are too bad for him to go out and hunt, they have a pretty much free tribe culture as dragonslaves go.
Heh... and I can totally see Widdershins as a Bard. Don't even know what a Bard IS, but it's so him! Though I can imagine most of you would get a little panicked expressive If I announced a Draconequus Bard. Lol!
Now I sing you da song of my peoples! *Flang-a-Twanga, Dwang-Dwang!*
Beeee INSPIRED!!! *Beats monster over the head with his lute*
D&D! It's cooperative storytelling! I can't think of any other notion that gets me all Bright-Eyed! ...and yeah, it's pretty much the only thing I can think of to use as an excuse to "hang out" and find me a friend.

Obviously, then, your life's work must be towards creating an even larger sculpture of dragons being awesome so as to acquire the record of largest-dragon-sculpture more dragonliciously.

You know something I just noticed? Y'see... in Yugioh we haven't had much in the way of dragons for a while. Mostly they tend to be some interchangeable mechanical dragon or something to fit whatever card archetype they've come up with and they don't quite entirely seem like dragons. Way back when we had the big two: Blue-Eyes White & Red-Eyes Black dragons.
The last I've seen of dragons that looked like living creatures was the ones refered to as "Hieratic" dragons. Like... Heresay. ....as if being holy-powered beings of virtue & righteous justice was somehow contrary to what dragons typically are. ...what, you saying dragons be evil or somethin', huh?
An' you know what right bothers me?
Why do I keep seeing f'nart of dragons with decorative tufts of hair? Like accent manes that grow down their backscales or off their arms or something. You can't have both scales and fur! Where you seen that from to get the idea to shove it together like that? Yeah, sure, their magical beings, there used to be a cultural species interpretation of long dragons that had moustaches & manes of hair too boot. But that ain't no cultural depiction!
