Deed

A task from the teacher. To wear a dragon you must have measured every kind of one: the Warden teaches the drake only to a Wyrmbane, who has seen all six fall.

What it does

Form rules: shift 0.6 s moving at 50 % (press again: back in 0.25 s); health = your max x 2.5 with your health fraction kept both ways; the species' bestiary armour and resistances (weaknesses too) add to yours; attacks are its AttackSpecs x (1 + 0.07 x (focus level - 1)) x (1 + damagePct + meleePct) x form power, cooldown x 0.6, windup x 0.5; no weapons, items, potions or non-form-safe spells; E still picks up loot; no talking, trading or riding; worn grafts sleep. A small drake (L, about 3 tiles long) baked once from the dragon rig into 'form/drake_<kind>'; you pick its colouring among the six kinds and its breath among fire, frost and blight. Upkeep 5 mana/s. Soar: crosses water, forest and cliffs (objects still block; no height in hit tests). LMB bite: authored melee 26-36, power 1.5, reach 2, arc 120, cooldown 0.9 s. RMB hold: a breath stream (dragons/lore/powers.ts STREAM: 6 tiles, 28 deg half-angle, follows aim, walls stop it), a tick every 0.2 s of 0.45 x focus average roll x (1 + damagePct + spellPower), fire+burn / frost+chill / blight with a 6 s spore cloud; 18 mana/s on top of upkeep; isFoe only. Space: wing-beat 4 tiles, 0.2 s i-frames, 20 stamina. Pace 9. Armour +25 %, knockback immune, +50 % resistance to your breath's element. L rules (doors, stairs, zoom).
