    How do you edit your character in a saved game and have it remember it?

    Plus, what bonuses do you think a half-dragon would have, and how could I balance them out so as not to be cheesy?

    When you edit any save game or your charecters in one, Shadowkeeper automatically saves it as a new file. Its in the same folder as your old game so you dont have to look for it.

    Half-dragons will have 100% resistance to whichever element they belong to.

    So what would a shadow dragon be? Or a black dragon?

    Quoting Aldeth the Foppish Idiot from a previous post;

    Black = acid - protection from acid/acid resistance
    Green = chlorine gas - protection from poison/poison resistance maybe?
    Blue = electricity - protection from electricity/electricity resistance
    Red = fire - protection from fire/fire resistance
    Shadow = level drain - negative plane protection

    And I would add;

    White = cold - protection from cold/cold resistance

    Thanks much!

    Also, is there somewhere I can find a comprehensive list of all of the abilities in ShadowKeeper?

    For balancing, I think you should give the dragon a weakness to counter the resistance. For example, if you give him 100% resistance to fire, balance it with 50% additional damage from cold. I think Fire and Frost Giants work like that in D&D.

    something you'll enjoy, i'm sure, is changing your ingame avatar from a person to a dragon, like i just did.
    dragon lady :)

    course, it does slow the game down a bit, and no one runs screaming when you come up and start a conversation with them, but still.... :p

    V***V
