Dammit.

Good to know for sure, however. I just didn't expect to be playing the heaviest dragon/Captain PC, as that's a bit of a switch from my usual RPG archetype.

Mind you, I'm not complaining - this will be fun.

A huge-ass dragon that talked like a Marine. What's not to love?

I mean, when I was delving into Veritas' psychology, having him be the scholarly type ended up being hilarious; but it was intended to almost be a counterbalance to Lydia & Frostfell.

Ah well, it'll still work.

I think Jeb put it best:
Jeb almost wished he could whistle. The landing dragon was not just huge, but strikingly colored in amber, wheat, and golden white. "Now -there's- a righ' pretty gal."
Lydia wrote: "More like volun-fucking-told! My name is Lydia, what is yours if I may ask?" She said stretching and eying the remaining cows. She began to pad over, this could be decent meal after all.
Blink. Blink-a-blink.
"Som'one weren' a-mindin' their Ps&Qs when she was a'hatchin'," Jeb said, shaking his head at the language. "Maw McClung'd be warshin' her mouth out fer talkin' like that."

Everyone:

And in advance, this won't be for a Dragon Calendar.

Given our characters, I wanted to create a more detailed table of vital stats for our characters, to help me and anyone else who has a bad memory.

So, I need the following information:

Description:
Brief Bio:

And, for example:

Breed: Crimson Angel
Height: (Unknown - need to ask General Havoc)
Length (with / without tail): (Unknown - need to ask General Havoc)
Weight: 41.3 tons
Gender: Male
Name: Veritas
Captain's Name: Alexander Braithwaite
Description: Large, compact, and dark red-colored.
Brief Bio: Exceptional eyesight & toughness. Methodical, precise, and unrelenting in combat.

Hey, Havoc?

I don't suppose we could contact RAF Intelligence for a translation, could we?

My apologies to Havoc, but I will be dropping from HMD.

Feel free to use Hermeticus and Thomas as NPCs if you want.

"Kommandante, ich habe einen Eindriken Draken in Sicht."

"Es ist nur ein Mittelgewicht. Wir wollen die Schafe, nicht die Lämmer. Sich verborgen, und warten Sie, bis die Leuchtkaffer zu finden, die großen Ziele."

"Jawohl, Herr Oberst, aber der Zerstörergeschwaderkommande möchte wissen, die rassischen Gruppe aller Drachen gesichtet."

"Ja? Und...?"

"Und das scheint ein Unter-Drake, ein Amerikaner Erntearbeiter. Die SS-Befehl wird wissen wollen..."

"Diese vertammte politische Bastarde können in die Hölle gehen! Ich breche nicht die Funkstille um ihrer Blutrausch zu befreidigen, versteh? Diese ist eine Luftwaffe Bedienung, und die SS können bis wir für ihnen anrufen warten."

"Er... jawol... Herr Oberst..."

"Gut. Jetzt gehen. Wir haben viel Arbeit geleistet werden muss."
"Commandant, I have one light dragon in sight"
"It is not a middleweight, we are after the sheep, not the lambs. Stay hidden and wait for the Leuchtkaffer, that's the target."
"Yes, Herr Oberst. But the Zerstörergeschwaderkommande would like to know, the rassischen group of (all kites) sighted..."
"Yes? And?"
"And that was the Under-Drake, an AmericanReaper. The SS-Befehl will want to know..."
"Those good-damned political bastards can go to hell! I will not break radio silence over their blood intoxication, understand? This is a Luftwaffe operation, and the SS can just wait it out."
" Er... yes, Herr Oberst."

Oh fine...

Here's the approximate real translation:

"Commandant, I have one enemy dragon in sight,"

"It's only a middleweight. We're after the sheep, not the lambs. Stay hidden and wait for the Fireflies (Leuchtkaffers) to find the real targets."

"Yes, Herr Colonel, but the Destroyer-Squadron Command would like to know the racial group of all sighted dragons."

"Yes? And?"

"And that was a sub-dragon. An American Reaper. SS-Operations will want to know..."

"Those god-damned political bastards can go to hell! I am not breaking radio silence for the sake of their bloodlust, understand? This is a Luftwaffe operation, and the SS can wait until we've finished."

"Er... yes, Herr Colonel."

"Good, now get going, we have a lot of work to do."

With binoculars, and dragon's amazing vision, it's not hard to beleive their a bit off, but can still see the middleweight land.
