Subject: How do Dragons fly so high? Paranoia from the sky!
Date: Mon, 13 Mar 1995 16:57:20 -0500
As I envision it, this book could quite easily include both the
hydrogen theory and the personification-of-nature-magic theory. See, this
is not only an unofficial work written by a bunch of Shadowrun enthusiasts
in 1995 -- in character, it's an unofficial work written by a bunch of
"scientists in the shadows" who are fearing for their lives.
So, while one group of scientists are writing clandestine reports
about dragons and hydrogen and another group is writing equally
clandestine reports about dragons and magic, the dragons are officially
saying nothing and unofficially deleting such publications (and sometimes
even their authors.)
Or, maybe one of those groups includes a Dragon leaking
information...or misinformation. The levels of paranoia can run quite
deep in this kind of game...and our book should personify that. Or maybe
it shouldn't. Or maybe it shouldn't, but we should say it does....
