Seems to me like that would be too hard to replace if lost or damaged...

Okay, hire a poor ork kid, have a mage create a telepathic mind link between the two of you, and use him as a mouthpiece.

Still seems like it would be easier, cheaper, and safer to simply use tech provided that you are unable to use one of your own magical abilties...

Cheaper than exploiting orks? What kind of dystopian setting do you play in (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

This is a good idea, and when the book talks about dragons, it explains that DragonSpeech (which drakes can learn as a metamagic) is actually Telepathy, and that most dragons have a human they mentally speak with, who relay's their speech to other people. Though I doubt Lofwyr uses an ork street urchin, the premise is the same. |

I loved the Dragon-Heart Saga, and Ryan Mercury is the sweetest [ Spoiler ] of all time! It was also my first introduction to Talon, who is a mage from Chicago with his own book about Ares big flub with nuking the Spirit hive.How can you speak poorly of such excellent works!? |
