Summary

0001202: "Dragon" name and color could be more appropriate

Description

Given the many other dragon varieties, it's odd that fire-elemental dragons are green and simply called "dragons." For symmetry, they should be renamed to "fire dragon" or "flame dragon" and swap colors with wyverns to become bright red (making wyverns dark green, which seems like a fitting color for the mundane D anyway).

If you want consistency between fire dragons and fire drakes, you could make fire dragons dark red, wyverns dark green, and Xtahua and the Serpent of Hell light red. This hardly seems necessary, though, as drakes and dragons are generally inconsistent regardless (to say nothing of draconians).

(0015450) Kate (developer) 2011-10-22 01:45	Dragon armour has been renamed to fire dragon armour, and the decision seemed to be to leave the monster name as-is.
