> I have always advised players against that cult telling them that its filled with magic they will never use, mainly due to inability to reconcile or suspend my belief that a regular human with a few neat feats could take on a dragon. For me that ruins the magic. I rationalise that the Alokoring cult is based around a nerdy bunch of guys who tell these outlandish stories and have a bunch of magic that no one has ever seen them use. Greg has hinted in the past that there are charlatans everywhere - and this seems like one to me.

Oh, I imagine it works perfectly well, myself. It's just that when even
a teeny-tiny True Dragon has five or more masteries before it even adds
in its augments, that magic is bugger all use, unless you're already a
demigod. I mean, even Pierce Dragon Armour 20W3 isn't going to help a
whole heap when you're facing something with Tough 18W5 with a +9
augment from its scales and +5 from Induce Terror before it even starts
trying to use its magic...
