I sense a candidate for failing the Trial of Pride. ;)

To be a Hero, is to do right and right the wrong. Epic has nothing to do with it. The people who volunteer in charities? They are heroes too.

Ah... but to resist the temptation to do so requires greater effort, and is as some will say, a bigger accomplishment. Sureeee... it might not make you famous, but then... most Heroes are unsung ones.

I admid that i fail the Test of Pride every time X-)
After all i *am* i mighty wizard and with the help of my friends (Korgan,Viconia,Edwin,Haer'Dalis) i know no fear. But i admid that there are several ways to do heoric deeds. Not all of them will secure you a place in the tales of bards, though ;)

Can somebody give me the exact conversation path? (I could have sworn I tried all the angles.)

I was thinking more of paths the PC can take where they can deal with blue-neutral circle dragons without killing them. IIRC, if you're an evil SOB and give Firky the deed, you won't have to fight him. Still can, of course, but don't have to.

In the case of Firky, maybe an overemotional (or gullible) neutral PC may be convinced that his or her presence made matters worse, and Firky may use that insecurity to get what he wants.

I have problems killing Nizzy. Yes, black dragons are evil--Lawful Evil. He's sorta charming. (I've often thought of an Edwin romance mod. Hey, let's give Anomen and Kelsey some competition!)
