Right, but if the runners did a good job, then that would be like throwing away a tasty lollipop before you get to the yucky center, ya know?

I think you mean "exclusive", but we know what you mean  ;)

The secret to dealing with dragons, is that if you can wing it, hide C4 under your coat. More than you need, more than you can pay for. If all goes well, you can return it/sell it and be OK.

Then again, if you are Fire-breathed, or lightning blasted, then it's not your problem anymore, now is it. . .

C-4 has to be detonated. An eletrical current might set it off, but fire wouldn't. And I'd hate to live through the lighting bolt only to be blown up by my own defenses.

It doesn't say "Deal with a dragon cautiously." The Phrase is: "NEVER DEAL WITH A DRAGON!"

My Dad said it was like playing chess with a grand master who hates you.
Whatever that means.

Hey, there is no big secret to dealing with one of the wizworms. Just don't do it if youcan help it. And if you can't, then try to enjoy it while you can.

So the wiki sites on SR, I saw them before I found this site. Nicely set up, but it's nothing new if you have read the books. . .

"Or madam. . ."

Course if you know enough about Dragon physiology and anatomy to know the difference,  you're probably better off dead. . .

You could use the terms "almighty" and "fearsome"- they're gender-neutral, and probably would stoke dragon egos. ;D

Yeah, just don't say the words "O Great Dragon" to a regular dracoform. It's demeaning and insulting, you know.

Better off using whatever name they tell you. Mostly because you might offend a Dragon using their Dragon-to-Dragon name, like Doll-Maker or Gold Master.
