Figuring out the personality and traits of a dragon needed for amazing role-play.

Dragons are fearsome, dragons are big, but that doesn't inform how they behave. Preparing and knowing the personality traits of your dragon will inform their portrayal and ultimately ensures your grand reveal doesn't fall flat.Taking a look into some of the core traits exhibited by dragons in fiction and breaking down those common behaviors allows us to study how they might behave.

So we look at three traits;

• greed

• pride

• and narcissism

These contribute to a better picture of how a good or evil dragon might show those traits off. Making a more believable dragon, and one easier to role-play, is surprisingly easy when you use our Character Creation tool found in the resources on our website here.

Similar to any player character or NPC, fleshing out their five core traits is all it takes. Even when using you combine these three relatively negative traits, you can still build a good or evil dragon or anything in between. Also in this episode, we dive into more real-world dragon lore by examining the real-world story of Tiamat, the dragon queen!
