    The purpose of this thread is to create discussion about what you would like to see as loot from the Dragon. Please feel free to post your ideas and let's see if we can get an interesting discussion going about what you'd like to see as a reward from such a majestic and epic beast!

    Personally, I'd like to see one big thing happen with the scene that the Dragon appears in - When the dragon hits about half health, it should retreat to it's lair, which should be a cave or something of the sorts accessible through the scene. The lair should be mazelike and filled with the dragon's servants, slaves and traps - basically a mini-dungeon. You should ultimately have to defeat the dragon in it's treasure chamber.

    The loot should be something pretty great. For distribution of the loot it'd be pretty cool if it was contained in a "container" that looked like a pile of treasure. Gold, epic armor of the various types, the place should be decorated with valuable looking house deco items, spell reagents, jewelry, that sort of loot.

    On top of that, the dragon should be skinnable. It should be extremely difficult to do, and reward specific dragon-only materials : a dragon carcass to butcher for dragon's blood (used in making something with alchemy and cooking perhaps?), dragon meat (cooking a strong buff food) and dragon bones (can be used to make handles for weapons, bow staves, bindings for armor, as well as decorative objects). In addition to the carcass, dragon hide and dragon scales should be acquired from skinning the beast, usable in crafting like the dragon bones.

    All of these crafting materials should have a very high failure rate unless your crafting skill is extremely high (90-100 range), but they should not be more powerful than other available crafting materials. Perhaps just grant different bonuses, or even just purely have a different aesthetic look to them. It'd be a shame to see everyone ignoring other sorts of weapons and armor purely in favor of dragon-made stuff because it's the best in the game.

    All of that might be a bit too much to put into one creature... but it IS a freaking dragon after all.

    (This thread was inspired by getting absolutely demolished by the dragon randomly today. I put around 500 points of damage on it before it took off and blasted me with fireballs to death. It was a glorious and honorable death and I applaud the devs for making such a terrifying creature!)

    Heads, scales, hearts. Stuff like that.
    Everything else would be lol. Dragons have no pockets ;-)
