[b]Archer[/b] So the cat expected them to fight the dragon with equipment made from lesser dragons? Not really something that Archer could see himself doing; killing one would be hard enough to start with, and despite his ability to alter and work with swords, Archer didn't really see himself fashioning bits of a carcass into usable equipment. For one, he doubted that there would be enough undamaged dragon left to make anything from: dragons of [i]any[/i] description couldn't be fought with intent to protect them. This left a few choices for weapons. Most were swords--despite their size, heroes seemed to like attacking dragons close up, regardless of the personal risk to themselves. Archer, himself, had a sword preference. In this case, a sword was far from his preferred choice: dragonslaying swords were often wielded by the greatest of heroes, and their individual power would be a terrible drain to project. Instead, the Knight in Red prepared to project a spear to deal with the dragon, once they got there. Ascalon was really the best choice. [hider=Nanoha] Still following Ranma. :P[/hider]
