Wrong thread, methinks...

Considering that Tiamat is one of the people who gave Taylor her powers, Miss Militia has every right to know. Does the phrase "Lawful superior" mean anything to you?
Really? NO it doesn't. I already deleted my comment by the time you read it. Cuz I didn't want to have this conversation. Some things the PRT doesn't need to know, if they could get the white dragon it'd be in a lab somewhere.

My apologies. Though I confess that this version of the PRT seems nicer than that...

Isn't there a time limit though?

True Resurrection's time limit is something like 200 years.

You wanna be the one to tell a literal Deity that they can't do something? ^^

Don't you mean Imped? Because Imp is probably the best Stranger in Worm.
I mean, who else can make people forget that they even exist?

I can't say Imped because Imp hasn't triggered yet!
In that case, she's Schrodinger's Imp.
She both exists and doesn't exist until she Triggers. Then if she gets a different power, Imp no longer exists. But same powers, and Imp exists, but we don't even know it.

I prefer 'Strangered' okay?
Now let us discuss the fate of Hunts-The-Ice!

Oh hey, Billy Blazkowicz, Junior, alias Commander Keen. Huh.
I wonder if white dragons being the worst was originally a jab at white supremacists. The E88 might get a bit [more] of a shock.
Be known unto Tiamat.
Typos:
You don't do that thing.

Typos:
It's not "cliffhangers" in TV/MS that I (and, I suspect, others) are tired of, it's going several paragraphs of talking about a thing without giving any details, description, or naming the thing. It's like a cliffhanger in the same way Magritte's The Son of Man is like a painting of a head.
You don't do that thing.

So Taylor was merged with a Dragon whose was blanked, or suffered death of personality.
Would that make Taylor an Exalted Dragon? 👀

I'm reminded of Dragon Magazine #330, with various commoner flaws, including …I forget if it was "delicious" or "goes down smoothly".
A quick google turns up http://tsuyoshikentsu.pbworks.com/f/Flaws For Commoners DR330.pdf
(It's 'Delicious', for the record.)

There seems to be a bit of confusion.
Then again, this may imply the reason that so few Dragons have been created from Humans is because, for one reason or another, the Dragon Gods are unable to do so freely, and special circumstances let them get away with it in Taylor's case. (If I were to guess, there are likely Divine Treaties and agreements preventing the conversion of Humans into True Dragons in most cases; that's the usual reason for a God in D&D to not just step in and do something.....)
Taylor isn't Tamara's reincarnation, she was merged with a Young Gold, who quite probably worshiped the Wingless Platinum Dragon named Tamara, and who Tamara wanted to have a second chance at life.

@Jacen1 has the right of it, for the most part. Taylor's spirit or soul was slowly being poisoned to death by the trio. Meta-physical, philosophical, or religious discussions aside about what happens after death, Taylor's spirit/soul was pretty much dying by that point; it was simply a matter of time before she simply was found dead. On the fantasy side of things you had a young dragon whose mind was erased, but whose spirit went to the Eyrie, to await rebirth. Tamara expressed her desire to her older brother, Bahamut, that Naurelin should have a second chance at life. At that point, however, things were starting on the down hill slope to oblivion for all mortal dragons, since there were fewer than 50 breeding pairs left total. Shortly after that, Tamara herself vanished after trying to annihilate her brother Falazure.
In order for a mortal to become a dragon, it must first be voluntary. Then, the mortal must be worthy of it or having attracted the attention of said Draconic deities. There must be a dragon spirit willing to go through with it as well. Any of the remaining Draconic gods could do it, though I'd be a little worried about the results of Hlal or Garyx performing that particular ritual (Chronepsis, of course, wouldn't bother).

Then I hope that there are sufficient numbers of available Dragon souls...
Hmm.
I forget, does becoming a Dragon grant resistance to being Mastered? Because if so, and if there are any other dragon souls...Amy should be moved to the top of the list. IIRC Vicky's aura plays a fairly pretty major role in how stressed she is, and is literally THE reason she started lusting after Vicky in canon.

I second the Lizarding of the stressed healer.
The Amy deserves head pats. 💚🦎
