No, but I do think it's fun/interesting to personalize dragons and give them talents. And I think the claw damage for dragons seems really low for their size, so yeah I think many would know some draconian fighting skills, equivalents of brawling or dragon fu. Also maybe Toughness, thrown weapons, running, climbing, swimming, flying?, aerobatics? . . . |

Re: TFT Beastiary Suggestion
Maybe Dragons do know spells
They just don't see the charm in using them |

Re: TFT Beastiary Suggestion
I regularly give dragons interesting talents and spells. I understand its not RAW but I don't care. Same with demons.

Re: TFT Beastiary Suggestion
I didn't tend to let dragons use spells, but I did assume that the 7+ hex dragons were quite clever and had lived a long time, implying they would tend to have thought a lot about good ways to survive and learned not to do things that would get them killed. And thinking about that led me to think that they'd probably try to accumulate as many magic items as they could, since they can use most of those, and what their most desired enchantments would be. And that ones that were smart and had lived long enough to grow to those sizes (which I assumed took many years and involved many hostile encounters), would likely have succeeded and figured out how to trade for the items they really wanted, such as by manipulating humanoids into acting as their agents without revealing who the ultimate customer is.
However I agree that it would be fine and interesting to let dragons use spells. I don't think they would be undefeatable - no more than a wizard with sources of extra ST is undefeatable (apprentices, powerstones, staffs), but it would make them rather more powerful. |

Re: TFT Beastiary Suggestion
So circling back to the original topic, guidelines for fleshing out certain creatures would be useful as would a bit more detail on how they fit into the world of Cidri. A little fluff never hurts.
For example, it would be cool to have more info on Octopi society, goals and equipment.
