Firstly I cannot recall reading if the metallic Dragons have returned to Krynn (I know they left during the Great Storm)? I know some where left behind like Mirror and Iyesta, but what of the others? Secondly with the dragon Overlords (I think Gellidus and Onysablet are the last two?), do their Dragon Totems still function? Were they stolen from them as was Malys' Totem? And if they were taken, can they begin a new Totem? I was just wondering what was stopping these alien Dragons from starting another Dragon-Purge? Arandur

Arandur The metallic dragons are back, Mirror led them back. There are actually 8 or so overlords left, but only 2 are major ones, i.e. Frost and Sable. There's no indication that their totems have ceased functioning or that they've been taken. All you need are dragon skulls (from each clan) and you can create a skull totem. Presumably if either of the big two lost their totems they could create new ones, though it might take a while. Back before the War of Souls, Malys was stopping the other overlords from continuing the purge. Now nothing is really there to hold them in check ... except for the gods.

I know Takhisis was able to do something to that effect against malys. I would say the Dragon Overlords would be to terrified to act, because acting would bring down the Gods wrath. Rosisha

They are not bound by any agreements or pacts made by the gods and dragonsthrough the history of Krynn, show no real reverence for any of the deities so I wonder how they will keep them in check? The gods of Light failed to keep the Knights of Tahkisis from pretty much conquering Ansalon just prior to the Chaos War, so I doubt they will do anything that interferes with the Overlords...

The gods of neutrailty asking them to go back and if not destorying them. And the gods of evil asking them to join them or destroy them.
#6 rosisha Sep 08, 2003 21:50:29	Well Takhisis was super weak after taking the world like that, and the Gods of Light allowed the KoT to take over to unify ansalon for the upcoming war. It was necessary to build up troops and such Rosisha
