dragon bloodline is more of something passive. i have more ideas to add more types of dragon magics. 

[The Stormfather He/Him]

I like dragon magic. I also like having dragon's corpses be magical so that there is poachers and stuff.

what like there bones, scales and blood?

[The Stormfather He/Him]

Mostly scales and teeth, usually but sometimes I'll make the blood helpful for potion brewing or something.

I love the ideas so far! I'm gonna check the doc in a minute and maybe add some things

I was thinking of trying to make a world / backstory for @justice magician's character Penn, as it is a really interesting character, and a really interesting magic system

Okay so . . . the thing about this. I'm flattered you like my character! I have a world building project that I've been working on for 3-4 years now that centers around him so, I already have his world, backstory, and magic system pretty much laid out. The magic system is far too over complicated to use in an RP, and I haven't finished developing parts of it (it seems simple in A&E because he's only using one facet of it, and he's explaining it in way that brushes over the complexity for time sake). I think it'd be super cool if you used him as inspiration, just know that Penn already has a 'canon' backstory and world.

If we do have these higher tech colonizers who are treated like gods, I think it'd be cool if they sort of kept up that pretense to use to their advantage, y'know? Like creating religions based off of themselves so that people follow and worship them. (this could also give us an interesting badguy if we want to go in the overthrowing-a-tyrant direction.)

what i was mainly thinking for my main plot is that roy contains the entire soul of one of the last dragons. 

also can gemstones act as magic focuses in this world?

Oh that seems interesting! We do need a main goal for the whole group as well, which I have a few ideas for

Ahh, Ok.

I simply meant that because they're colonizers, the native people might have reasons to overthrow them, and that could be a plotline if we want. I wasn't saying they all have to be evil. I did start working on a race description in the doc, but it's just ideas at this point.

i added some things to it to basically say that the colonisers are considered gods by the locals because they hunted down every last dragon to extinction. only a few people containing the souls of dragons are left. they are trying to resurect their draconic masters.

I was hoping to get a few more people involved before we get started, but if not I'll create the actually RP thread and character sheets soon. I would also like to get a solid grip on some kind of plot before moving forward, I'm worried it'll die faster if we keep things vague.

I've made a poll to determine some basic plot ideas, if anyone has a different thing they want to do say something!
