Hate how so many settings are afraid to give dragons the capacity to act as forces of change and ambition. Either they're treated as wild animals to be slain or tamed, or if they're of the intelligent variety, they just claim some shitty cave, and then sit there for infinity until someone comes and kills them. These sapient, hyper-intelligent, enormous, powerful, magic-using one-man armies SHOULD be conquering their own empires and instead they just end up as sideshows.
