Talk:Weredragon

Drow-dragons
Thank you for writing this article. This is a headache-inducing subject that really needed clarification. That being said, are drow-dragons weredragons in the lycanthropic sense? I suspect they may have been developed into half-dragons in later sourcebooks. Ir&#39;revrykal (talk) 08:54, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Looking at the history section of the drow-dragon article, I am pretty sure that they are exactly those weredragons that Drizzt Do'Urden's Guide to the Underdark is talking about. So yes, I'd say they are one type of weredragon. I've planned to include that later. It's hard to get a complete picture, though, as I have not seen any mention of weredragons in 3rd edition. I assume the term has been abandoned. Daranios (talk) 18:09, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I have included the term drow-dragon now, I think there is no discrepancy to earlier descriptions of weredragons. I don't have Dragons of Faerûn. Ir&#39;revrykal, or someone, could you perhaps check if something in there ret-cons drow-dragons to not being lycanthropic weredragons in the 2nd edition sense (or, in-universe, proving Drizzt's observations wrong)? Is there something else in Dragons of Faerûn to add to the article? Thanks a lot! Daranios (talk) 10:49, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I will do a literature review on the subject next week and get back to you (I'm away from my regular PC this week). Ir&#39;revrykal (talk) 11:08, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

Comment about possible completeness: I've put everything I could find and attribute to the lycanthropic weredragon as opposed to the song dragon into this. In the end I could only find the term weredragon in 2nd edition material. I assume that its use, riddled with contradictions as it is, was discontinued in later editions, but I don't have a good overview there. Daranios (talk) 11:19, 13 May 2021 (UTC)
