Never deal with a dragon??? WTF... I'm thinking unless a player continuously gets thier character frakked each and every session it's kinda inevitable that thier character is going to find themselves dealing with a Dragon eventually. And I may be wrong but I believe the Axiom goes "Watch your Back, Shoot Straight, Conserve your Ammo, and Never... Ever... Cut a Deal with a Dragon." simply put issokay to deal with Dragons all you want. As long as you A. Don't get a big head and think you've got the upper hand. B. Don't try to Backstab, Blackmail, Lie, Cheat, or Steal from said Dragon. or C. Don't give them the impression that you don't trust them, said character should be fine.
of course that's just my personal opinion on the matter, feel free to agree/disagree...
oh, and happy holidays to all, and to all a good flight...
