I'd be interested if I can play a riderless dragon.

You may play a riderless dragon, with the understanding that your character could not be directly associated with the quest. We're still working out our plot line, so this might change, but so far, the riders are supposed to be trainees that the king is sending out as a sort of last resort. Right now, I just don't think you'd stay interested if you played only a dragon.
