DM Q&A: Public Opinion of Dragons

[The Supreme Watcher]

Since the Dracorage happened, and in our FRC canon dragons stormed the Reach, and then attacked Alusair's army at Redmist, what do the common people think of Dragons? How would they react to half-dragons, dragon disciples, etcetera? Since both Chromatics and Metallics were involved in the attacks, do the common people see any difference between them?

As a player of a dragonhunter who is constantly met with claims of racism and bigotry contrary to popular opinion, I would like to know. Thanks.

When have dragons ever been anything but awe-inspiring monsters of great power?

Of course the commoners fear them, (even the metallics,) and they always have. How PC's react is a different matter.

As for rascism: what? All of the Dragon Desciple characters of whom I am aware have been on the receiving end of rascism as soon as their draconic nature begins to manifest. If some monster-lover wants to go around saying ochre jellies are merely misunderstood that's his business, but you and I both know those scaley freaks are just trouble.
