Though, I seriously doubt that those wings could support her mass. It works on Magic, not Physics, so the flight dynamics/principals are different and not well defined for us "mere mortals".

It does not match any D&D dragon design, so there is no ‘D&D answer,’ if that is what you were looking for. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyradis Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Chonky might be full of eggs. She'll slim down once they're deposited in the lair for incubation. 4 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just skip it all together! Can somebody tell me what color dragon Chonky Boy (girl?) might be? Based on the horns and the ‘mountain lair’ from the flavor text, I’d lean toward a red dragon. Those horns, by the way, are really cool. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aku-chan Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Really like the 3 stage barbarian, but can't help unlock this one, unless one of the encounter sets is super amazing it looks like I'm sitting this one out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the description, and the fact she has fire breath, I'd say red if you're looking for a D&D/RPG answer. Otherwise, it's (going to be) your miniature, it can any color you want. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirithiliel Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Chonky gives me 'purple' vibes and I'd paint it purple if I decide to get it 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeronimus Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 The backturned horns give me red vibes, but I do like the idea of making that a deep, bruised purple, reddish shade. Ultimately, it is whatever color you paint it as. The 5 big dragons from last time were quite obviously meant to be one of each color, but for some of the dragon sculpts that came with the Bones 5 core, or the smaller dragon from the Dragonslayers, I still haven't quite decided what color I'd want to give them. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagination is a wonderful thing, so, yes, any color you like. Where I come from, dragons do have colors, but don’t have horn configurations specified … 😛 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually like all 3 sculpts ... but 15,000? thast asking a lot of the last 48 Hours Especially considering we haven't yet reached even 50% of Bones 3's final numbers, which were 13465 backers. 9 hours ago, Big Bad Wolf said: Can somebody tell me what color dragon Chonky Boy (girl?) might be? Right now, I'm thinking browns and yellows to go with the desert description given in her flavor text. Of course, in my settings, dragon colors have no bearing on their other features and abilities. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kind of what I'm seeing too. I'll admit to being one of those paint within the lines types when it comes to my dragons, to such a degree that I've actually scrounged up all the official art from editions past to try to sort out any sort of essential traits before. The big ten are pretty solidly defined, the weirder planar dragons are fuzzier. Back swept horns are typically the domain of reds although these ones are a bit atypical in number and shape. For my world I'm liking Chonk here as a fiendish red dragon. A former consort of Tiamat that grew fat and monstrous gorging itself on the souls of the damned in Avernus before fleeing to the material plane after some light treason. The only thing that's preventing his presence from being an outright cataclysm is his fear of Tiamat. Alternatively? Take the wings off and have a rad pseudo Godizlla kaiju. (side note, rust dragons? best idea they never ran with) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone in the Kickstarter comments brought up Ashardalon. Fiendish influence makes sense for a dragon who tried to bind a Balor to his chest. Though in that case, maybe he'd be even bigger. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m firmly in the “impracticality large dragons”camp. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
