[QUOTE="Mecheon, post: 8604582, member: 6801776"] So, dragons in my world are affected by their enviroment. This is the explanation for why there's so many dragon types, and it turns on itself that the biggest, most powerful dragons can actually twist and turn the world around them, which lead to the dragon-like creatures just naturally spawning. But, dragons being affected by their enviroment means there's all sorts of weird dragons. And given natural nuclear reactors are a rare occurence in our own geology, this has resulted in the.... Predictable outcome of applying any weird natural thing to fantasy. so, y'know. This strange group of dragons called the Radiant Metallics exist, so called because they glow in the dark and breathe an invisible death. I haven't had to drag them out, but, they're out there There's also the horrors resulting from the blood of a slain black wyrm that have ended up corrupting a former prosperous town into something somewhere between 'zombie nightmare' and 'shambling immitation of reality'. That.... Hasn't worked the way dragon stuff normally does, and the feverant last wish of said dragon to remain alive may be accidentally turning the place into a horrid living biomass where infected people follow lives on repeat, unaware of what they've become. All of the fun of zombies with body horror, kept in place only because whatever magic keeps the thing around can't spread, and the overwhelming drive of 'stay alive' hasn't really let the thing spread. Certainly a concern though and a fun way to mix up zombies (I came up with this before reading a certain Elder Evil in 3.5E) There's also the living mechanical dungeon that's spreading beneath a desert, slowly building itself by consuming more matter and turning it into pieces to build for itself. Its presently in the process of figuring out what the deal is with organic beings, being caretaker to a few who've stumbled in, and, especially, this conumdrum of religion, many having come to see the ever-expanding realm as something akin to a deity, providing to them. Particularly what would happen if it built an army of those made to feverantly worship it Also, burnt treants. They're undead treants. That are always on fire. Fairly self explanitory. [/QUOTE]
