Also, OP it's "most prideful". "Most proudest" doesn't work.

if you're gonna grammar nazi, at least do it right, "most dangerous" and "proudest" work individually and the phrasing is ambiguous if you attach most to proudest,

The choice of color is easy. You decide you will be a Red Dragon, fierce and proud, with fiery breath. The choice of egg is harder but you eventually decide the cracked egg is better than the smooth egg. Strength comes before authority. You feel a questioning from the feeling surrounding you, asking if you are sure, and you return frustration that it would dare attempt to give you second thoughts. There is amusement now and you can feel your soul being pulled! Too late, you sense that hatching from the cracked egg won't make you stronger, it only means that if you're going to survive at all you must be strong!

>Somewhere in the western forests, a hard-shelled egg the size of two fists trembles and shudders. There is a crack running down the side and it's clear that this birth is a premature one. The creature in the egg mewls and punctures the shell, pushing it away. It is tiny enough to fit in the palm of a hand, with soft, pinkish skin and furious, wrathful eyes.

You don't remember anything about your choice. Only that you've broken out of your egg somewhere in tall grass. There's shade from the sunlight overhead and you feel naked. More than naked, you feel fragile and vulnerable. There's no fear though. You know you will be the deadliest creature in these woods. Your wings flop uselessly along your back. You will be.

You consume the eggshell. It is very crunchy and satisfying. The yolk feels thicker than it should be but that might be because you hatched early. Your body is very soft and doughy but your fangs are sharp and your jaw is strong. You're able to consume everything. This was your first meal. If you are lucky and cunning it won't be your last. You are very angry that there's no more eggshell to consume. Maybe you should find another egg and consume it.

You cannot stay out in the open like this. Not until you have the strength to devour your foes and destroy everything they hold dear. You aren't sure where anything safe could be found. You sense your vision is foggy, your hearing is dim, and your smell is vague. This is because you were born early but at least your taste is developed.

You feel that you're too exposed in the tall grass. You aren't the only predator in this place. You need to find somewhere to hide until you can grow. You instinctively know that to grow you need to eat but that isn't as important as making sure you aren't eaten. It takes you a long time to look and you find a cowardly furry creature even smaller than you are but it runs into a tree and escapes. That makes you angry but you're satisfied, because you've found somewhere worthy of your fleshy majesty. A hollow in a rotting tree stump. You feel like you can remember where it is but shouldn't count on that. There is some moss as well.

You know you can't hunt efficiently like you are now so you swallow your pride and eat it. Pathetic. There's a lot, it isn't filling, but there is a lot. You're frustrated by this and by your weakness but it's dark and you're starting to feel sleepy. You feel the warmth return while you curl up but this time it's coming from out of you instead of around you. There aren't any dreams. Only the digestion of everything you've eaten as you hibernate... and grow. You know that your premature birth has left you infantile and vulnerable but Dragons are a proud race, and Red Dragons the proudest of all! You will survive and you will grow stronger.

You reawaken in the rotten tree hollow and your instincts tell you the sun has risen and set seven times since you hibernated. Wait. Seven? Uh... then eight, then nine? You think that's how it is. Being a Dragon, you have instinctual knowledge far superior to the lesser races. All you need is the strength to take advantage of your blood. You look around. The tree hollow hasn't moved and some moss has regrown. You hesitate to eat it, because you can feel that you're mightier than before. When you first hatched, your body was weak and fragile but now your bones have thickened and your blood runs hotter. You think you can endure more but not by much.

What you need is food. You need to hunt but you are too slow, weak, and imperceptive to hunt. This frustrates you. The small furry creatures are far too swift to catch unless you become lucky but they are the richest source of meat. Better than the eggshell. Meat. You catch yourself drooling and stop. There are even tinier skittering things that are fast but everywhere and pathetically weak. It would not be difficult to consume them but it would be tedious. Then there is the moss. You sense that you would need to consume much more to grow full and some part of you finds eating moss, not meat, disgusting. You need to eat something. Your instincts tell you that there are more dangerous creatures in this place than the small furry ones and tiny skittering ones. You must be careful not to get caught.

You don't want to resort to moss any longer but the small furry creatures are too cowardly to face you! ENOUGH! You will resort to the tiny skittering creatures. They appear to be crunchy and for all of their lack of meat, they are abundant.

You pursue the tiny skittering creatures and though most escape, there are more anywhere you turn your fangs. You continue consuming them, staying away from the brightly colored ones and focusing on the slower moving walkers. You even catch a hoppy one which was satisfying but difficult to catch. You are angered that you cannot catch them any quicker. Nighttime comes and you decide to sleep in the rotten tree hollow. When you awaken the next morning you're still full but you sense you need to consume more if you want to grow.

You repeat what you did yesterday and are less successful, but only slightly. You consume enough of the tiny, skittering creatures to fill your stomach and when the sun sets, you creep into the rotting tree hollow and slumber. You're hibernating again. You feel if there's any advantage to hatching prematurely, it's that most of your growth has already been done for you and you're only building on the foundation the egg made. It's still bitter to think you're struggling to reach a normal hatchling's power. In the future, this may be more difficult.

You reawaken in the rotten tree hollow and your instincts tell you that the sun has risen and set only one time since you hibernated. That's fast, insanely fast. So fast you wonder if anything has actually changed and then you crawl out of your sleeping spot and are stunned. Everything is much clearer than before. For the first time, you can see the leaves on the trees and the small, furry creatures scrambling on it. You are frustrated by them but the tiny skittering creatures are much clearer to you now. You realize that you can hunt them much more efficiently than before and the faster you hunt them, the faster you can grow, which means the faster you can take your vengeance on the small furry creatures.

Your rage is overwhelming and so is your hunger. Only days ago, there were countless tiny, skittering creatures wherever you looked and now, they're gone! They're hiding from you and now you can't eat them! You're infuriated by this. Something else has happened too. The clouds have started to rain and now everything is wet and muddy. Your rotting tree hollow is dry but if this continues it will also be wet. You don't like being wet. You don't like that the forest is wet. You are very, very upset.

You go to sleep and awaken hungry. It's still raining. You don't know when it will stop.

You want to find somewhere dry but where is dry? You look at the wetness and notice a pattern. There are puddles forming below your rotten tree hollow. Does that mean if you went higher, there would be less puddles? There's only one way to find out. You leave the rotten tree hollow behind. It's served its purpose, what matters is your survival. You search for higher ground and find a hill sloping upward. You crawl on the slope, getting slicker with mud, and are on the verge of giving up and trying to find the rotten tree hollow again when you stumble on something. There's a hole going into the side of the hill. It was hidden behind some brush but you stumbled into it and are now able to see inside. There are a couple of tiny furry creatures, larger than the skittering ones but smaller than the tree climbers. They sense you and try to run deeper inside but there's nowhere to hide. You salivate at the thought of consuming them, but... You don't know what they're capable of. They could be dangerous.

>Consume these pathetic creatures and seize their hole as your own!

What a magnificent feast you have found. You force yourself into the pathetic tunnel, pushing it wider to accommodate your fleshy, shaking body, and then you sink your fangs into the nearest of the two creatures. It squeals and thrashes but it's too late. You might be a small and weak creature now, and the forest may ignore you now, but here, now? You are doom and for these pitiful vermin there is no hope. The taste of the meat and blood is like nothing you've ever felt before, but it's even less than the feeling of the power you have over the weakness of these two, worthless morsels.

An hour later you've eaten your full and are resting in a snug pile of crunched bones and wet gore. You're so full, you're bloated and can barely move aside from fluttering your wings. You sense that with this much meat, you can hibernate for much longer than before, and if you can hibernate longer than before, you can grow much faster than before. Excellent. The sooner you can grow, the sooner you can take your vengeance, the sooner this forest can burn...

You reawaken in the small furry creatures' hole and your instincts tell you the sun has risen and set seven times since you hibernated. Something feels different. It's dry outside but that doesn't matter. Your movements don't feel as sluggish anymore and when you take a step, your leg goes right where you wanted it to instead of fumbling! A few days ago, you thought being able to see the leaves on the trees was impressive but now you can see them in much more detail! You growl at the thought of how much more hatching from a cracked egg has robbed from you. Growling won't get you anywhere. If you want what was taken from you, you must seize it, like those small furry creatures' pathetic lives and their pathetic hole!

Those creatures were rather tasty and much easier to hunt than the other small furry creatures. It might even be more efficient to postpone your vengeance to hunt down some more. There must be more of their hidey-holes hidden through the forest. You need to find them, and then, you need to consume them whole! They cannot resist you! No force they can muster can withstand your might! You are their destruction! You are death! You will be, anyways. That last nest was extremely well-hidden...

Only two weeks ago, you were almost blind and deaf, relying on your sense of touch to navigate the forest around you. If you tried to search for the hidey-holes back then you would've needed a miracle, just like the one that led you to the first, but now you don't need a miracle. You don't need any kind of luck, because you can see where the brush was broken by the smaller furry creatures' tiny little feet and when you know where they are, there's not a single thing the tiny little creatures inside can do to stop you. They weren't as delicious as the last but they are close. You don't even bother to find the previous hole. You just curl up in this one and drift into sleep.

You reawaken in the small furry creatures' hole and your instincts tell you the sun has risen and set seven times since you hibernated. You growl and scratch the dirt with the soft, dull nubs of your back foot. You're starting to notice a pattern. More importantly, you feel something has changed. Your movements are much smoother and faster than before. With this, taking your vengeance isn't tempting shame. It's reclaiming control, as is your right as the greatest of creatures: a Dragon! You admit that you feel somewhat disturbed by your nakedness. Your flesh is soft and feeble, you have no claws and your wings are dangling. This weakness is humiliating. Rending the flesh of something weaker should make you feel better.

Soul is a little more complicated than the others. Magic is related to it, but also to Cunning, and not innate to a Dragon like Soul is.

>>4713962
If everyone wants to max tubby, you can, but it won't do much for your survivability. Dragons usually hibernate when they have food stored, a Dragon getting fat instead of muscle would be unusual. It's possible and might be slightly more resilient than straight muscle but a lot less mobile.

chub is better than muscle for defense, I am sold chubby dragon time

>>4714152
Not really. Scales would be better for defense. Fat doesn't do much for a dragon except slow you down, since you don't need fat to stay warm as a dragon. They're living furnaces after all.

You reawaken in the small furry creatures' hole and your instincts tell you that the sun has risen and set four times since you hibernated. You're pleased by this. The faster your hibernation cycles go, the sooner you can reach your true potential. You try to sense what changes happened this time but they're subtler than before. You think about this and come to a sudden realization. The vague confusion in your head has disappeared and when you try to think, you can visualize the dead small furry creatures with ease. This was a minor improvement but it's a major step forward. You aren't wheezing anymore either, which is also good. You feel an unsettling urge to consume in the back of your head. It's not a bad thing but compared to the usual hunger its intensity is a little unsettling.

Fat isn't better than muscles for defense, it's better at handling raw damage. More like 1/2 Fortitude, and a -1/2 Muscle/Agility and -1 Wings, because you have to haul that around as well. Scales are the defense stat. I think it might be better to have you decide on your frame when you mature than to have a separate stat, which will happen if you keep growing. I don't have a problem with it being a stat, it's just that you consume most of your stored food when you hibernate.

>>4714156
Right now you don't have much of a furnace. You also don't have any scales. If winter comes early you could be in a bad situation.

so it would improve our about to absorb a hit then, I like it, it's a novel enough idea to me to chuckle at is so why not do it. I also think having us pick our frame once we mature rather than have a new stat is likely a good idea.

You've taken your vengeance and are satisfied. For now you'll hunt the smaller furry creatures in their little hidey-holes. You already did it once, how hard can it be?

>5 or higher counts as a success, 4 or lower is a failure

Extremely hard, actually. You took two days and couldn't find another hidey-hole so you resorted to eating more the tiny skittering creatures. It's very shameful and you only started later in the second day so you're very hungry. You're very angry as well. You're really not having a good time. A few of the leaves on the trees are turning brown. You don't have any strong feelings on this one way or another.
