All right, McArtor!!!
Hooray master!
I must have this. :)
Another book I cannot live without. I am loving what you guys are doing with the world.
My thoughts exactly!
WOO-HOO!!!
Will the dragon info from PF#4 be included? Expanded upon?
Thanks.
Will this be retconning any information from the article on Dragons from the pathfinder AP? What about Dragonfall?
Very nice! I'll definitely pick this one up. I wonder if Paizo's take would work in Dragonlance.
Now, if Paizo would only put out a psionics system complete with gem dragons...

Look who's talking! ;)
It's so odd to see such dignified "knights" wearing such crude skins . . . ;)

I'm a sucker for dragons and I particularly like the way dragons are handled in the Dragonlance setting. I hope, and trust, that the folks at Paizo can conjure something similar for the Pathfinder Chronicles setting. By that I mean making the dragons a part of the setting itself rather than just huge XP awards.

If I can't do that to your satisfaction you have permission to kick me in the shins. Repeatedly.
Bah, I want my Undead :-)
I am interested in this as well.

Cool, r3visted dragons! not 4dventure dragons! But will they need to be re-revisted to conform to Pathfinder rules in August? or will there be a Web-enhancement?The 'Elves' book stats conformed with 3.5 rules. It will probably be the same with any book until the PFRPG comes out in August 2009.
And given the backwards compatible nature of PFRPG, no major stat changes should be necessary. If this is anything like CMR, it'll be primarily flavor anyway. If the stats for the dragons themselves change in PFRPG, they'll be included in the Bestiary in July.

The only thing in the book that'll not mesh 100% with Pathfinder RPG is the base stat blocks for the dragons. And those base stat blocks will be in the Pathfinder Bestiary. The rest of the book is mostly flavor, but any other bits of crunch that might end up there will be compatible with both 3.5 and PF RPG. No need for a web enhancement or even a reprint.
I really hope this does offer a new spin on some dragon types. Something a little more intriguing than "Whites = Dum + Cold", or at least some different ways to spice ye olde dragon color up.
Well, actually, white dragons haven't been "dumb" for a while now. They aren't nearly as smart as other dragon types, but at their adult state, they are as intelligent as an average human.
Sure, the red dragons use big words to insult them that the white dragon's don't understand, but they can at least process the basic algebra they need to figure out the size of their hoards.
I really like the actual cover for this but does this mean the end to Wayne Reynolds cover for the Pathfinder Chronicles line or is this a one off? Anyone know? Regardless the cover is still pretty damn cool.
If I can't do that to your satisfaction you have permission to kick me in the shins. Repeatedly.
Can I kick someone in the shins if Oriental Dragons aren't done justice when they eventually crop up? I might take some flak for it, but they've been big favorites of mine for ages, and I think D&D has had a tendency to treat them as red-headed step-children next to their winged Western kinfolk. 3E Lung couldn't even cast spells (when chromatic and metallics could,) and they were the ones supposed to be the nature-attuned spirit beings.
Special note: I do not actually intend to kick anyone in the shins over D20 stuff.
PS Special Note: Sorry if this was a thread-jack, just thought I'd speak up about reflavored dragons when I had the opportunity. :)
I'm sure that if/when we ever get to that region of the world, we'll talk about Oriental dragons. And I'll make sure they're cool (I've been a fan of them since the 1e Fiend Folio).
"Answer hazy."
(Jason and James are the ones who decide what goes in the Bestiary, and deal with page count issues.)
And I adore faerie dragons. Just saying. :)

When will this book be coming out in PDF format to download? I'm stationed in Afghanistan right now, and will be headed back home mid-march, it would be awesome to have this book to read on the plane!
Oh and I loved Classic Monsters Revisited. My favorite D&D material has always been the monster manuals, bestiaries, tomes of horrors, fiend folios and various other collections of nasties. It's like a humongous world of possibility with each page, and I am in love with the possibilities you have been presenting me. My favorite of all of them would have to be the Stewie Griffon headed goblins; once I read the 10 fun facts about goblins in PF #1 I was hooked on them. Will any of the dragons be getting some similar humorous treatment?
