Viserys does not know and given the secretive nature of Shadow drakes that may be by design.

Eh, it was more of a passing curiosity on my part.

Now then, @DragonParadox, for normal pseudodragons they lay 2-5 eggs every spring?

How does Blood Wished fertility -- which we've already cast on them -- interact with this?

Do they lay eggs more frequently than just every spring? Or do they lay more eggs per batch?

Look, Tyene is a rich Oligarch making money from public businesses and exploiting her personal connections to powerful men and willingness to kill a few people for the regime.
Of course she won't be paying for this! It'll all be on the taxpayer's dime!

Teacher Arcanum!

She'll be able to read her student's minds, control their minds, directly upload information into their minds, magically Silence unruly children, etc. We can build the perfect instructor.

EDIT: Later, of course. Years from now.

@DragonParadox
Do Drakes reproduction go similarly weird to True Dragons?

Would for example a mix of Pseudodragon and Shadow Drake result in a random tiny to small drake, or in one of it's parents species?

Drake inheritance is weird but not as much as True Dragons because they are not as magical so all drakes are cross fertile (regardless of say size difference) for instance but the heredity is in the vast majority of cases in line with one or the other of the parents.

They lay twice as many eggs.

Obviously it would just be a Half-Dragon Shadow Drake. I mean, given D&D logic.

This sounds like hell on earth for the poor kids.
...
But it amuses me.
Make her sadistic, bipolar, impatient, brilliant, and also sexy if she's teaching teenagers.

On that matter:
Should I add going to Best Uncle as a minor action next turn?
We can ask what he has in mind for the remains of that ancient Green dragon that served OG's.

His opinions on recent event, and probably some strategic situation on, oh you know, Illithids and Fey would be nice.

...alright, I've gotten a few likes, so I'm penning in a visit to uncle dearest next month too.
@Duesal, prepare your qestionus.

...As a person that actually studies to be a teacher, I can greatly appreciate the potential this holds.
Yes, please.

No you're not.
Either prod Crake into action, or write some yourself.
Or we'll all collectively take a look at your avatar and you'll never know peace again.

So assuming my math is correct (3(SL)×5(CL)×1800(command activated)×.5(item creation)×.75(Feat Discount)×3(total number)x.2(Gold to IM conversion rate)) it would cost us 6075IM to make the Night's Watch not need to worry about food and water for any personnel or horses for the foreseeable future, and an additional 32400IM to make it so that every Wall Castle (19 total, 38475IM total) has it's own food and water?



Considering our new position where we're dropping over 100000IM for the sake of round numbers and that I've repeatively read that we have so much low level crafting space available, dropping 6075IM seems honestly rather trivial now. Removing the Feat discounts, it would be 8100IM to cover three Castles and 51300IM for all nineteen castles.

We could probably make some for charity use instead of the Bread Dole, but that feels like it has the chance to mess with the farming economy if handled indelicately.

Maybe things changed and if DP has since said otherwise before I got to the end of the thread my apologies but it had been made clear that infinite food was a no-go for DP, do not approach the Tippyverse.

I've been told by family and friends that I should have been a teacher, which always confused me, because it's pretty well known among my acquaintances that I detest children.

Now that I think about it, maybe that's why they believe I should be a teacher? o_O
 
1: I feel bad for us all shit-talking Snowfire's avatar. I'm not promising to stop, but I will look for a middle ground. That way I can always escalate to that!

2: Teachers definitely shouldn't love kids. All the best teachers I had hated (or were totally sick of) kids, but cared about getting the job done right and making sure we'd learnt something at the end of the class. The ones who loved kids and wanted us all happy and wanted to get along with us? Useless shitheads we liked but had no respect for. That "no-one likes Mr Gladly" thing in Worm is very true.
Of course this relies on being actually competent. The incompetent teachers who also hated kids? Those are genuinely the worst.
Oh, and the pitiful teachers who needed ego trips by endlessly proving how superior they are to the 12 year-olds? I've had a few, and they're generally terrible. They also tend to be pretty incompetent too (and they create such an incredibly shitty atmosphere in the class... That can't be good for teaching. There's more hate than listening going on there).

EDIT: I've also had a sexy teacher who dated 18 year-olds. That was just weird.

I have known good teachers who liked teaching, if not necessarily their students. I've certainly never known a teacher to like all their students unless like you said they were looking for an ego trip.
