Man i hope that dragon gets built soon just so we can be spared this incessant dibnin around it.
body's getting built next turn in the storm.
Does that weapon actually do stuff a giant flying juggernaut needs? I feel like something more elemental and/or esoteric to hit any cheating 'immune to giant claws and blunt trauma'-bullshit would be more likely to be a meaningful upgrade to the dragon.
So all of the pieces are meant to contribute to a Set which is inspired by Storm Dragons. Currents is Sharper, Faster, Unblockable, and apparently also has an elemental component based on its tags in the public Rune Spreadsheet. By using elemental reagents in it and Cleaving (Much greater AP) and Might (User is significantly stronger), its meant to come together in crackling elemental lightning and winds fed by the other pieces of gear to pierce just about any other enemy and frying them like they got grabbed by a city main power bus.
Unfortunately, dwarves don't have a lot of weapon runes that are good for specifically this niche - I'm not entirely happy with this rune claw rune selection either.
The straight up pure anti-magic stuff they have is also not great for fitting into a Storm Dragon Set.
Vote's open as well.

[X] Whitebeard's Letter: Through elvish contacts, we know that some elves of Tor Vernath are asking for Bel'Shannar's assistance, putting Malekith and his allies under time pressure. The Mages Malekith visited were suppressed by Bel'Shannar, since he could not ally with them and do not have much incentive to care about magical backlash to the people living here - only that their patron succeeds and spites Bel'Shannar and that the Waystone network in the Far North is not totally destroyed. Prince Gimli is friends with Prince Laequalys of Tor Vernath and the elf and his own mages may have a useful additional perspective.

So, I wanted to ask, has anyone thought about inviting Snorri's students to help with the giant dragon Gronti? Like that much Adamant is going to be hard to shape and detail properly even with Snorri's speed. They could help with details of the Gronti itself, while Snorri finishes the runes himself(and it would be a cool way for everyone to work together again)
I did consider it, but given we'll be shaping most of the body and inscribing the main body runes into it during a Storm of Magic, I don't want to cripple or kill them. Not sure about the pieces made after the storm - I am strongly considering having Karstah either help, or doing some of them herself.
