I wonder why dragons are immune to Backstab. couldnt you just like climb up his tail telling him youll give him a backscrach and then, when he certainly wont excpect it, you stick youre enchanted dagger into his back. (hahahaa, stupid dragon)

just in case some of you think me crazy, this was a lame joke.

Dragon's aren't exactly what I'd call a pocket tool...

If you were a giant, and a human stabbed you in the back, would you feel it? If you were a human, the blow would be distributed over a smaller area, but since giants are so large, it wouldnt do much, Now, dragons are a tad larger than giants....

Second thing-you can make exceptionally good armor from dragon scales, a small amount of what the dragon has. Now if the dragon has those covering its whole body...Will you do too much damage?

A TAD bigger than giants? I've gotten pretty used to fighting dragons by now, and if I've learned anything, is that once you knock their spell protections, the rest is a cake-walk. (besides the breath weapon, I mean) And of course, the game designers make it where dragons have the biggest ego's in the game.. For example...

Saladrex at Watcher's Keep:

"Oh look, a new mouse has stumbled apon my layer. I had thought it was the mind flayers that were causing those sounds of battles on the gethyankies again, but it seems to have been you."

"Are you the Imprisoned One?"

"Imprisoned One? I don't know what your talking about. But let's talk about me, surely I am the most magnificient creature you've ever seen." <--- Riiight...

And of course, I always answer one of two ways, or both.

"Eh, seen one dragon, seen them all." or

"A crazy dragon? Sounds like a fun battle! Un garde Saladrex the Unhinged!"
Still my favorite battle cry.
