Wish for Tien Chi's Dragon
We envy Jomonese. :p
Rumors have been spread all over the cities and towns: 'The sons of Dragon Kings show their presences on the other side of the East Sea.' Our people are questioning: 'As the Real Dragon, the Son of Heaven, why don't his majesty call the Dragon Kings to aid us? ' Sitting on the Dragon Throne, touching the eyes of golden dragon on his Dragon Robe, the Emperor said nothing. |
Re: Wish for Tien Chi's Dragon
"Long", as Chinese pronunciation of eastern dragon,was a special presence in TC mythology. Jomon is given a lot of East Asia style creatures, we simply want to have a real dragon for TC.

Re: Wish for Tien Chi's Dragon
I'm with you on this one, as it feels a bit odd that Jomon gets some funky summons that seem entirely appropriate in TC's Celestial Bureacracy. Not that Jomon shouldn't have them too, of course :)
Maybe each should have their own Dragon King. Or even rival families of dragons. |
Re: Wish for Tien Chi's Dragon
Heh. TC and Jomonese dragons should be quite different in feel, to me.
Personally, I like the Celestial Bureaucracy feel of MA TC quite a bit. |
Re: Wish for Tien Chi's Dragon
How about the nine sons of Loong from Chinese legend?
they are: Haoxian A reckless and adventuous dragon whose image can be found decorating the eaves of palaces. Yazi Valiant and bellicose; his image is seen on sword-hilts and knife hilts. Chiwen Chiwen likes to gaze into the distance and his appearance is often carved on pinnacles. Baxia Baxia is a good swimmer and his image decorates many bridge piers and archways. Pulao Pulao is fond of roaring and his figure is carved on bells. Bixi Bixi is an excellent pack-animal whose image appears on panniers. Qiuniu Qiuniu loves music and his figure is a common decoration on the bridge of stringed musical instruments. Suanmi Suanmi is fond of smoke and fire; his likeness can be seen on the legs of incense-burners. Jiaotu Jiaotu is as tight-lipped as a mussel or a snail. His image is carved on doors. |

Re: Wish for Tien Chi's Dragon
Agree. Dragon is the centre myth animal in TC culture, as a kid you may not know Monkey King, but I am sure they know Dragon

Re: Wish for Tien Chi's Dragon
Dragons are central in Chinese mythology. They aren't even mentioned in TC mythology, are they?

Re: Wish for Tien Chi's Dragon
Well, TC more or less = China.
