I don't have the right system for it and I really don't have a few hundred dollers to spare at the moment for a PS3
omg, me! Lair is a new game where you play a dragon iirc and/or a rider. Nautipus, correct me if I'm wrong about that.

And, like Acalewia, I dont have the system for it and doubt that I will spare the buckage Accidentally posted this thing too early Anyway, Acalewia, you are right. It is just as you say. But I am big on looking at different types of anything , dragons included, and apparently this game has a big lot to choose from, so I figured it might be cool. I cant find any info on the different dragon types online, though. Can anybody help me out?

Dragons play a big role in Chinese culture. There's even a small baby boom during the year of the dragon in China. (reference: Chinese baby-boom in the Year of the Dragon) However I'm always sad that Japanese dragons never get mentioned . They're pretty cool too and their legends are really the best IMO. (reference: Famous Japanese Dragons) |

I take it that may be because Westerners tend to conflate all Aziatic dragons because they are often visually very similar, and it's mostly in mythology where the differences are.

In Chinese culture, dragons embody benevolence and power. They possess supposed powers of control over weather phenomena such as, for example, invoking rain during a drought.
The Chinese dragon in Chinese culture has been part of it for more than 7,000 years. ( source : [LINK deleted - When an admin deletes a link, it is bad form to edit it back in again - EƤrniel] ) Last edited by Salohvise : 02-24-2021 at 07:32 AM. |
