Gunthersby: They're gonna feel real silly when YoshiP adds the Turnsintoadragon Job

sitnspin1819: This makes me think that Alexandrian scientists were trying to do the same thing with beast souls.

emeraldpichu1: Well, it would cure illness and give virtual immortality so it is tempting opportunity now that Nidhogg is no longer there to mind control them.

As an aside, despite being permanent there is one quest in the machinist storyline where one of the Ishgard corrupt Nobles turns themselves into a dragon, but somehow after you beat them up they’re back to their Elezen form.

son0fgrim: Loosing my thumbs woukd really piss me off

BelladRavenwood: This was the first time ive seen an aevis up close, danm they terrifying

NiraSader: I remember that one npc in the lvl70 Machinist quest taking dragon’s blood, transforming and still being able to turn back to her original form after defeat. I assume that was just a hasty on the fly decision and not a proper ritual, thus not permanent.

On top of that, Heustienne mentions something about “having already turned” in the DRG quest though I am not sure if that means transformed or something else. Probably seems more like what we see later during the questline.

xeaduulix: In this day and age, who wouldn't take the chance to become a giant dragon daddy tho.

hylianjim6484: I'm just surprised that, with peace between Ishgard and dragons, the dragons haven't joined the Eorzean Alliance while the Temple Knights have. Humanity will like dragons for maybe a generation or two longer if they had helped at least with Ala Mhigo...

FF-tp7qs: Didn't the fake Inquisitor transform into a dragon only temporarily? I may be misremembering, but in the solo instance where you chase him to the entrance of Snowcloak he turns into a wyvern or something and then after the fight hes elezen again in a cutscene. Or is it just a case of early installment weirdness?

loofy530: It's never really explained whether this transformation is truly complete is it? What I mean is because we now understand dragons to be magical beings whose bodies are malleable, and who reproduce by essentially creating new life out of their own essence directly, could it be these people quite literally turned into children of the dragons whose blood they drunk?

Furthermore could these people then, now dragons, grow more powerful with age and eventually take on new more powerful forms? Maybe they're not quite as stuck as they think they are, they just have yet to learn how to really exist as a dragon and just what they're capable of.

feyefall4855: A small price to pay to live out my dreams of being a magic lizard, mayhap even with wings.

spirit3138: Have you made a video on The Wolves Den? Or PvP? :o
