Way back in the day, Thanatos told everyone to make new character sheets. And, disreguarding the fact only about half of everyone listened to him, I finially got my character straitened out. So here we are:
Name: Hanson Crawford Age: 18 Height: 5'8 Weight: 160 lbs Hair: shaggy brown hair, gotee Eyes: right eye blue, left eye bright green Weapons: two kodachi concealed in one sheath Clothing: black slacks; white button up shirt, untucked; blue trench coat; head band Extra Features: a dragon called Uri Bio: Hanson Crawford is the heir of the Crawford Corporation, the biggest industry in the world. However, after his father's death, the wicked Board of Directors plotted with Hanson's rival Blaire Whitecloak to overthrow Hanson and take over his company. Hanson escaped to Xenon after an attempt on his life and is currently seeking revenge. His dragon if a biologically engineered creation of Ivory Idustries. Though it cannot breathe fire, it is an aid to Hanson with its razor sharp talons and teeth. Hanson does not know what Blaire intends for Crawford Corp. or what Blaire's true intentions are. But intends to settle everything with him. But that is not Hanson's only worry. He also fears for all of Neo Nexus, who currently accept the ruling of Prime Minister Felix Amethyst unquestioningly. Hanson has only met Amethyst in passing, but something about Felix unnerves him.... Personality: Cheerful. Basically, he's 18 and has a lot of emotions inside of him. He has a great weakness for pretty girls, and constantly overreacts to the smallest problems. He's not used to fighting and has lives a very sheltered lifestyle. But perhaps something can be made out of him yet....

Excuse me? I believe I state that the dragon is biologically engineered. Meaning, it was created in a laboratory. Meaning no magic other than a bit of human variety often called 'science'. It's an idea I've already cleared with both Thanatos and Nicholi. Please read what a person is saying before you start insulting them.
And I think it's debatable on who's the 'moron' in this RPG, anyway, but that would be a chatterbox topic so nevermind.

Argis... shut up. The idea of having a dragon WIHOUT the use of magic is great, and it being bioengineered really adds whole new levels of possibility to the story without taking away from the Phantomile atmosphere. I love it. And, by the way, having a samurai without brains is the same as having a retard given a sword and a suit of armor. And not all dragons, rather in mythology or in Arthurian legends or medieval settings, breathe fire. In fact, here is the Merriam-Webster definition of the word: Main Entry: drag·on Pronunciation: 'dra-g&n Function: noun Etymology: Middle English, from Old French, from Latin dracon-, draco serpent, dragon, from Greek drakOn serpent; akin to Old English torht bright, Greek derkesthai to see, look at 1 archaic : a huge serpent 2 : a mythical animal usually represented as a monstrous winged and scaly serpent or saurian with a crested head and enormous claws 3 : a violent, combative, or very strict person 4 capitalized : DRACO 5 : something or someone formidable or baneful - drag·on·ish /-g&-nish/ adjective That's taken straight from www.m-w.com. You can double-check it if you want to. Am I trying to pick a fight? Yeah, probably. Oh well, stupid me.

Well, I can only guess and say they toyed the DNA of some animal (most likely a lizard), and made it into a dragon. It doesn't really matter. It's part the story that will likely never get put in.
But as for for second point: A lizard with wings. And sharp teeth and claws. But if you want to look at it as a lizard... far be it for me to stop you.

And besides Argis. I can only guess how they made a dragon. I mean, I am Hanson CRAWFORD of the CRAWFORD Corporation. The dragons were created by Ivory Industries, a RIVAL company. Now, how could I know how they created their biologically engineered creatures? I mean, they might take that as me trying to steal their secrets and retaliate. Which is bad for buisness. So, it's really beyond my control. But never fear! If you ever meet someone from Ivory Industries, I'm sure they'll tell you everything you need to know. EDIT: Or not. Just take it from this display that I HAVE thought the whole dragon idea through quite thouroughly. That is all. But the unicorn idea does have it's merits. But 'magical blood that can keep you alive for ever and ever'? As you said eariler, magic is not allowed int ToP.

If he knows as much about samurai as he does spelling and grammar, he's screwed.

Now, now, everyone. Let's try to at least look like we're playing nice.
I'm very pleased with the changes to the character sheet, Hanson. I understand you've made quite a few sacrifices, and I appreciate that; this new sheet seems much more in line with the general Phantomile atmosphere, and looks like it has some really intriguing possibilities.
Doubters note that biologically engineered creatures are specifically mentioned in the Compilation as being more than allowable under certain conditions, which Hanson has easily exceeded. And yes, the "dragon" could just as readily be considered a big lizard; so what?
"A rose by any other name..."
Calling it a dragon isn't going to change a darn thing.
