Ok, thanks. I need to have a meeting with the other guild members to decide what course to take, as this most likely means a name change. After that, I will post the updated (and hopefully final) version of the guild background story.

What about the shard of the heart of the ancient ancestor of the Pterosaurs or Megaras?

The Shadowfax of the air....

It'd fit Settings better than the old Dragonheart idea.

Or better yet why not make "Dragons" a little know mytholgical creature from Dermoia? (Yes i know i spellt that wrong) That gives you full right to ICly ignore the name. Or ask what is a dragon?
You know you want to lol. You know you do. Give in to the lol. YOU can not fight the power of the lol!

Nitpicking doesn't go anywhere. Start listening to the good advices you have received, really. :) You have a very good start with the story, you only need to tweak it a little bit, yet you cling to one element of it very very hard, in spite of repeatedly being told it's not part of the settings.

If PS includes Dermoria it falls under the same settings rules.

Im sorry but i see no good advice. I only see people complaining about the name of this guild.   
I did not choose this name, or make the history. Also are there any guilds that do not draw some idea or concept from RL?   
Where is this "No Dragons" rule i want to see it.

Theres been plenty of advice but it seems you refuse to see it
If you didn't choose the name or write the story, why are you complaining.
There is no rule only fact,
This is a pointless debate that goes back for at least 5 years if not decades, if you disagree join the Settings team, spend a lot of time and effort working yourself into a position where your voice will be heard and then put forward Dragons and try and persuade the rest of us.

Now allow this thread to get back on topic, I will remove any more posts that stray from purely Guild matters

Ok, I've been busy lately so if you think I've abandoned sorry ,but no. I guess with all this arguing I will do my best to address these issues and end further pointless bickering, that partains to not understanding our sideof the arguement.

1. Mordraugion, I see your point, but it helps me if you suggest ideas when you are going to reject things.
2. The thing about Dermoria being part of PlaneShift that makes sense, but if we are going to argue that we MUST stick to the settings and mainly RP then don't we agree that worlds are different? If Dermoria and Yliakum were the same then they wouldnt be called separate things and have different races.
3. I agree that dragons are from RL and 1 of the goals of PS is to be different than other games. BUT as I said before I think Dermoria is different than Yliakum. There is very little to build upon its origins, etc. in the settings. When I look at these posts and the history of the creation of PS they want the players to suggest new ideas to help make PS as original as possible. So that is why we are arguing because we feel that one of the goals of the game is to be original, thus the reason for us to be from Dermoria. Since it had little info about I thought that would make it less complicated for the RP aspect because there is little in the settings and in the game itself about Dermoria. If we appear out of nowhere are say that we get power from a "creature's heart" on Dermoria, there is nothing in-game that says no these didnt exist. The guild story explains why this wouldnt show up in the records of Yliakum because this was a secret.

I think I covered the main things. We will change the dragon part and if you guys just completely and utterly dont like the whole aspect of dermoria then we will go to another course for our story. We would like to be original and thought this was quite good, but if we made one that we thought was good then I imagine we can make another.

Thanks.

There are no Dragons in Planeshift. This a fact. We've been having this argument since I was 13.

The whole point is that dragons are not orriginal, saying you come from another world to not have the same rules apply to you is also not orriginal nor is giving yourself powers that oters do not.

This may sounds kinda harsh and perhaps it is, but that is the reasons people are opposed to such an RP.

Uh...I thought i agreed awhile back and then re-addressed it in this that we would change the dragon part. There is another spot were i said a similiar thing also i just cant go back far enough to quote it. (hopefully the quote and highlight worked. if it looks weird its bc i usually dont use them ,so this was a first)
