"How can you have something called Dungeons & Dragons and not allow people to play as dragons?"
- – Bill Slaviscek to Gary Gygax
And thus, Council of Wyrms was born.
Simply put, you get to play as the Dragons. No, you don't get to play normal dragons in a normal D&D world, having your hoard targeted by would-be adventurers or fighting for control of puppet governments. That would be too cool. You play the thrilling game of democratic dragon politics on an island chain populated mostly by dragons, their demihuman vassal races, and the half-dragon offspring of dragon/vassal mating.
The Races and Classes
- Dragons': Of course, you can play as legit dragons, though you're not gonna be as broke-ass powerful as the guys you've fought against. You're generally restricted to the varieties of Chromatic, Metallic, and Gemstone dragons, each with some truly drastic stat adjustments. However, your dragons are limited to specific classes: Dragon (a generic template of a kit that permits their development), Priests and Mages (Though limited to using specific kits to not hamper your development), and Psionicist (Using kits exclusive to the Gemstone Dragons), and your levels are dictated by how many magical items are in your hoard.
- Kindred: Of course, there are other races besides the dragons. These are the vassals, the various servants each dragon accumulates to manage all the boring stuff while they go take care of business. Each dragon species has their own preferences, but you're stuck with either dwarves, elves, and gnomes for vassal races, and all can select a kit that lets them ride their masters.
- Half-Dragons: The result of a tryst between Dragon daddy and Vassal mommy, these don't quite look like dragons, but definitely aren't like their mother race either. They're only found between Gold, Silver, and Bronze dragons.
