For Challenge # 043, I went with the space of "Flavour, lots of flavour" and "Is impressive if you're doing cool stuff"

I was actually just going to have "Protection from creatures", but what the heck. He's creature type dragon, after all.

Hmm, I think these days they usually go with "gets +4/+4" instead of manually setting p/t whenever they can. Otherwise, though, it's an awesome card! Great idea. :D

Oh, also, this probably shouldn't be a Dragon itself, right? Probably something like a Human Knight like Griffin Rider?

Very nice idea, indeed. Reminds me of Cloudreach Cavalry, but far, far cooler.

Yeah, he's not a dragon until you control another dragon and then he realises that yes, yes he really is.

I did write +4/+4 initially; but changed it to get the immediate "THIS IS BIG" impact on reading the card. Um, sadly, though, you're right as at the moment he will immediately trigger on himself; and getting a second one out on turn 2 leads to a horrific unending beatdown.

Keep the flavour in mind for the artwork though. Changing type from "Human Dragon Knight" to plain old "Human Knight"

not a dragon in the typeline any more, sadly.

"I Cast Shields of Velis Vel and swing for 5. After combat, I play Dragoneer #2? That resolve?"

Many Timmy cards are monkeyable-with by Johnny if he tries hard enough. That doesn't stop it being a Timmy card.

Oh, geez, in the hands of Johnny, everything is mokeeable. I certainly don't think that stops a card from being Timmy-promotable.

Yeah, I figured most dragons were high cost, so it could get away with being bigger than the griffin knights etc. Probably this would need to either be a smaller bonus or, more likely, have a higher casting cost.
