Post by Shiningwater Wed Oct 29, 2014 3:05 pm

So, you guys probably know that I raised the question on dragon size restrictions, and we decided to have a vote on it.
The options are:
-Keep the restrictions the way they are, and have the dragon need to be constrained by the tribe they fit into best.
-Remove the restriction entirely, so dragons can be any size at all, without any limitations
-Have an overall size restriction, where the dragon has to fit within certain constraints, but the constraints are the same for every tribe with a large range.
-The size limits remain, but the limits are not forced.

Please give justification for your choice, and if you choose the third, give a range you think works.

I'm going to put my justification here: There should be an overall size limitation of something around 3-300 feet, but this only applies for rogues and dragons joining the tribe. If the dragon is a hatchling/is born into the tribe, they need to conform to the tribe restraints. However, of the dragon is a rogue or joins the tribe, they can be any size within the three to three hundred range.

I think there's a option missing in this survey.

What about to have sizes for dragon tribes, but people aren't forced to follow them?

This is the current model we have for dragon tribe sizes. I like it. (these sizes regard an adult dragon)

SkyWings: 10-40'
SeaWings 15-60'
NightWings 20-80'
LightWings 25-100'
IceWings 30-120'
FireWings 35-140'
EarthWings 40-160'

There's also a range for the single dragons. For now dragons can be between 1-160 feet, with only Cosmos tall 300 feet.

I say keep it the way it is. It has been like this for a very long time and I like it. If we give the freedom to be whatever the height they want people will say.
Height: 500 on four legs and 100 on hind legs.
And the 3-3000 is too big. Dragons are gonna want to be towering over each other and it will make wars difficult.

I actually don't think it's been this way for that long, long-term speaking. From being on here since nearly the beginning, I can say it hasn't been this way for long, I think. I could be wrong. I found out when I made my fourth character, so I could be wrong.

Overall dragon size. Because that way, we wouldn't be going like, "Oh, so-and-so is WAAAY too big, just because he's a SkyWing!" And also because I suggested it... Razz

Double posting. Shoot me.
Looks like the winner was the overall restriction size.
Taking into account the ideas, I'm gonna say that the overall restriction is 2-250 feet (So cossy still get's to be bigger than all of us. Razz (This can change)) Unless you are born into the tribe with pureblood (for lack of a better term) parents, in which case you must abide by the tribe limitations. How's that?
Any objections? Let's open up the specifics for debate now. Any input regarding the specifics is welcome. Once we come to an agreement, it's changing. Cool?

family is another exception always has been ^.^

Also I do not agree with the 2-250 it should be 15-160 a compramise of sorts. If your rouge you could to chose whatever height but only a Pureblood Skywing can be the smallest and only a pure blood Earth wing can be the biggest. Also half bloods will be able to chose a range anywhere in their two tribes.

And as usual the rule will only be applied to new apps.

Wait, that kind of takes the point out of it is the thing, because that's the smallest a skywing could get, and the largest an earthwing could get. I still sort of see that as using the same restrictions.
What about 5-200 for the total range?
That's not too far off the original size restrictions. Minus five for the smallest, add 40 for the largest. That seems more fair to me. But hey, I'm only one person. But evyerthing else looks good, I especially like the half-bloods.

And could I change CopperHead's size on this once we decide?? I purposely haven't used her until this was changed, so it wouldn't affect anything accept her app.

Rouges already get a larger freedom in what powers they have while as the tribes are very restrictive. Giving rouges a greater size range than the tribes would make the tribes obsolete in nearly every way. That is why I made that suggestion.

Hmm.
Good point.
Alright. So, 15-160-with the exception of Cosmos- for all sizes. Rouges(who join a tribe, or remain rouges) can be any size within this range. If you are born into a tribe, you have to conform with the tribe restrictions. Half-breeds can choose between their parent's range. I think that works. We can change this and then I won't ask about this again.

But seriously, can I change CopperHead's?

With what I see, hatchlings would be 2-3 ft SMALLEST, a 10 ft hatchling wouldn't make sense for me, of course 2 ft would be SkyWing standard, not sure for the others and what if your parent's origins is ANOTHER tribe but they moved to this new tribe and your born there? I'm guessing you choose from their size, one example is me and Moka, Moka was a Nightwing then moved to SkyWings, does that make them SkyWing size?

Well, of course. Hatchling sizes remain the same as always. Whatever seems legit according to your parent's size.

What if your dragon is from another universe where dragons commonly are smaller then an average human, and can transform into a larger size when battle is aroused? Just asking because that's the case for chibi.
