Questions related to Act 1You know how every name in the DB world has a meaning, so what does Fira mean? Does it originate from the work Fire? Why exactly did you choose the names for Oryon, Cephyiss and Kadmyss?

During the attack at the end of act 1, Cephyiss was pinned against the wall, why wasn't Oryon pinned? She would have been more angry (protective) that someone was steeling her eggs than Cephyiss I would have thought so she, in theory, should have been stopped first.

Can you explain what exactly Word and Connor were doing when they were fighting? It sounded like a mag-claw fight, but Word mentioned that what they were doing was illegal. Their mag-streams also sounded as though they were two colours. Were they getting their mag energy from the same dragon? What kind of dragon is it? If so, how is it that Word was firing red and black bolts while Connor was using blue and green?

What made Word decide to go to the side of evil? You know, like what made him decide that the side of good was weak and the side of evil was strong? Because, although we have seen/read how they were raised. We never saw what made them choose such different paths.

Why did the Dragon Priests decide to give the star amulet to Connor? How did they know he'd be the right one to bear it? What is it about him that made them feel he was worthy over everyone else? Is Connor somehow tied into the prophecy or were they deliberately trying to motivate him to breed a gold dragon?

First of all Rob, let me thank you for creating such an enjoyable show! It has all the elements that have been missing in cartoons for so long. My hat's off to you!
My question is, why did word Blatantly try to manipulate the Dragon eggs in the temple, using black draconium no less. Did he not realize he was doing wrong, was he worried about being caught, or was he so wrapped up in his drive, that he didn't think about it.

Why did Word steal one dragon egg? Why did he leave the other eggs? Was it because Oryon was not pinned to the wall? Where was Zulay Paynn, in this story?

Is T-Pax bipedal or quadruped at this point in the story? If bipedal, did he look like the police dragons? And did Abandonn have those horns before he became elite? Did T-Pax have the extra arms? Did either of these dragons look similar to their elite forms when they were "regular" dragons?

It seems that Word believes that his draconium amplifier had no effect on Beau's egg, but is this actually the case? Did Word unknowingly contribute to Beau's development as a gold dragon in some way that he couldn't detect at the time? In other words, if Word hadn't stolen Beau's egg and experimented on it like he did, would Beau still have become a gold dragon? I'm kind of wondering if Beau owes Word anything for making him a gold dragon or if Word's experiments were truly useless. Or is it the case that Word actually caused harm to Beau? If what Word did was actually useless or harmful, can you tell us what was wrong or missing with his approach? Thanks!

Why did Word resort to a dragon as a nanny? Why not a human? Even though a dragon nanny is WAYYYY cooler. Was it so Moordryd would be especially acclimated tward dragons and have a better life with them?

Questions for Act 3When the mag stream arced from Beau's egg to the unborn Artha, did Beau generate that mag stream consciously or did it happen spontaneously by itself, like in the way that lightning strikes by itself once the charge crosses a certain threshold? What I'm wondering is if Beau was consciously seeking out and choosing his human right then and there and if the mag stream represented a "choosing" in some way. Or did it maybe portend a choosing that Beau was not conscious of? In either case, did the mag stream form a bond of any sort between them and did the energy have any effect on the unborn Artha? Given that the bonemarks affected Beau and made him a gold dragon, could this mag energy have affected Artha, essentially making him a dragon booster? Thanks for anything you can tell us about this unusual event!

Now that Connor has those bonemarks, is it possible for him to use them to create another gold dragon? Is there a reason why he wouldn't want to at least try?

When Connor broke his leg, why was he not taken to a hospital? Why did Tannis smirk at Connor when he approached him during his operation? Does that gold plate in Connor's leg ever pain him again like it did in the chamber? Does it have any effect at all on Connor, give him any special powers at all?

How much would you be willing to tell us about the Chamber of Balances? Was it made specifically for protecting the three bonemarks? Is there a reason why the Vysox was not there too? Will we see the Chamber of Balances again?
-- From Liliwen, Ontario, Canada
Click for answer------------------------------------
Is the Chamber of Balance the same place where we first see Mortis in episode 2? Because each of the stautes have the five primary draconium colors so I was wondering if that is the same place or not. thxs! o and dracest show ever!
-- From drake
Click for answer------------------------------------
In that Chamber of Balance, why does it get hotter and hotter and hazier and hazier, with each mag blasts? Why did the walls of the temple fire energy out to block the blast, sending Word and Abandonn tumbling away? Is it because of the intruders?
-- From Decepshunmy and Arthapenn
Click for answer------------------------------------
How can the gold draconium help to balance Connor? Are Oryon and Cephyiss afraid that Beau would have more black draconium due to Word's experimenting than gold draconium?
-- From Lancepenn, New York
Click for answer------------------------------------
How did Word escape from the energy dragons in the Chamber of Balance? Why did he steal the secret of the draconium prism test? Is it to get the bonemarks? What was he planning to do with the bonemarks? Did he know the Vysox bonemark was not there?
-- From Cain, New South Wales, Australia

We're working on making storyboards for this episode and are wondering if at this point in the story, does T-pax have four arms already? Or did he get those later when he evolved? Also, do T-Pax and Abandonn have smooth bodies like most of the dragons we see (like Wyldfyr and Decepshun) or do they already have some spikes at this point? Thanks for helping us draw the dragons correctly.

Are the Bonemarks recoverd by Connor the same ones we see in the possession by the Orange Dragons in the current series? If not will you tell us a name or two of them? Or did Connor keep the bonemarks? If so, where did he hide them? Thank You Very Much.
