Ineffable Wingbolt Suspicious Vlish Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I replayed the Rebel ending, and I noticed that the Unbound a little... smaller than I expected (no joke). Check out the picture with the lizard creature holding the human over its head. It looks way too small to be either Unbound or Drakon. I find it hard to believe that those creatures are terrorizing Terrestia. They are drawn well, but perhaps they should have been bigger!

Magnificent Ornk Student of Trinity Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Would you believe that the thing the Unbound is shoulder pressing is actually a War Trall? Edit: I'm no great shakes at Spanish, but shouldn't it be "vive los Takers" and "viva Ghaldring"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Questionmarks. Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I do not think that is an unbound ,and the thing it is holding is a shaper soldier or war trall...Just a picture of how the war is going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Leftover Sauerkraut Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Saying that an average human is about 6 feet tall, it is about 2.5-3 times the size of what it's holding. So that is about 15-18 feet. Drakons are 12 feet so I think it is an Unbound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Suspicious Vlish Posted March 18, 2007 Author Share Posted March 18, 2007 Ok. It's just a little surprising, as I always visualized Drakons to be much bigger. From the way Jeff described Drayks (what was it... 10 tonnes of muscle?), I always thought that they were elephant size, and that Drakons were even larger. I guess I'm suffering from the "Drakons are Dragons" Fallacy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I'm pretty sure a Drayk was described at one point as being 30 feet long in G1, but that seems to have been retconned out since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Syros is twenty feet long in G1. That might be what you were thinking of. Dikiyoba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oops, I just realized I made rather silly translation error! 'Viva' is Spanish. I was actually aiming for a French translation. So Viva should = Vive. I'll fix it...

Kyshakk Koan Questionmarks. Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 All drayks would have different sizes...not all of them are the same. Any Drayk or Drakon with a name would probably be bigger than other ones... I think a normal drayk would be at least 10-15 feet long,In some text,it reads that they are not very large,but very powerful,and drakons came from Drayks...you know everytime a Drayk or Drakon shapes again it overdoes it...so i think they'd be 20+ feet.

Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I know no French at all, but I'm pretty sure you need to conjugate differently and use a plural article for Takers. Vivent las Takers? —Alorael, who realizes this is very tangential. He's not sorry. Language is important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Quote: Originally written by Long Gray Road:Vivent las Takers? "Les Takers", I believe. If you wanted to be even more of a wanker about it, you could also translate "Takers" into French. "Les Preneurs"? Also, I think it's just "Ghaldring", not "la Ghaldring".

Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 I took that one to be a humorous twist on "long live the monarch" because Ghaldring is so all-powerful and such that he's like a title. Actually, Monarch is the one who's like a title, or at least like a monarch. —Alorael, who acknowledges that he should know enough French to realize that "las" isn't one of its articles. Suya culpa.

Kyshakk Koan Questionmarks. Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 I could have sworn this was about Drayks and Drakons' sizes...you guys get off the subject too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
