Hey, friends, I was just playing my Might and Magic 8 run, where dragons are made into an extremely sympathetic faction, and the "paladins" are trying to exterminate them, steal their eggs, trophy hunt them, and enslave dragon babies. In other words, the paladins are presented as being like the killer of Cecil the Lion, and are seemingly designed as a nominally lawful good faction that evokes outrage and revulsion from the player, such that the player is almost certain to bring the dragons into the Alliance rather than the paladins.
So, my sympathy with dragons in all rpg's, since they seem to me to be no different than "reptilian big cats", has led me to start thinking about doing my next trilogy + SoD run as a dragon disciple.
That means that I would never kill any dragon unless I absolutely had to in order to keep playing the game.
So, how many story-forced dragon slayings are there in the BG trilogy?
I'm thinking that the only do - or - die dragon in the BG trilogy is Abazigal. Is that right? How many dragons does the game design *force* you to slay?
