I enjoyed this sample dragon.
It's a great example because it demonstrates a large variety of traits and magic and how they are composed. Plus it provides some calculations in the description such as the cost for those area spells.
I'm always a bit wary of providing too many additional attacks in a one-second turn. Maybe that will work for some turns, but every turn creates a hyperactive image. I know this concept has been addressed elsewhere, but it got me thinking about an extra problem in Ssymm's case.
Does Ssymm have an issue between very active turns deciding which head will control the next coordinated tactics with the single body? Might that incur some hesitation?
Or since the mind is not compartmentalized, is there a dominant or collective consciousness?
In fact, is there any convention in fantasy for how multiple-headed creatures such as the Hydra coordinate bodily control?
