There are a few hidden species options accessible through necromantic species reassignment later — no, not skeleton dragon — but the starting options are those.  Clicking a name will set your species and take you back to the chargen overview menu.";
-	say "[chargenlink ChoosingVrash]: The vrash are winged quadrupedal dragons.  They walk on four legs, but their forelimbs are also dexterous hands.  Such hand-feet are called 'pfods'.  Vrash can walk three-legged to carry an object.  One of the three abundant species of Theoma, vrash are the strongest dragons of all.  They typically wear armor, but this is generally only a show of wealth, and expensive clothing sometimes takes the place of traditional vrash armor.  Vrash have the most awesome innate magic, being the ability to pay only basic drain (ie, bodily fatigue) for the ability to reconfigure (though not transmute) objects that they are touching.";
-	say "[chargenlink ChoosingVashael]: The vashael are winged theropod dragons.  They walk on two legs, although they can drop and move on four instead if they chooose.  One of the three abundant species of Theoma, vashael are strong enough to pull laden wagons.  They have a perpetual breeze flowing about them and can manipulate the wind while paying only basic drain (ie, bodily fatigue).  This ability is called the 'amicus breeze'.  Vashael are instinctively the best flyers among dragonkind, flying faster than other dragons with less fatigue for distance, though this ability is difficult to use in trade without owning one of the very rare flying wagons.";
-	say "[chargenlink ChoosingIzerah]: The izerah are wingless theropod dragons.  They are the smallest of the three abundant species of dragons.  Izerah have no innate magic, but they do not tire.  They have limitless stamina.  They need to sleep only every other night, and nothing stops them from sprinting for two days straight before collapsing into slumber.  They cannot fly, but their ability to sprint unceasingly means they are actually more mobile than the average vrash or vashael, who finds flying at least a little tiring.  Izerah are stereotyped for their restless nomadism, but it isn't true of all of them.  They are also stereotyped for always having energy, and that stereotype is generally accurate.  Izerah are almost never strong enough to pull wagons designed for vrash and vashael, but they do often pull izerah carts.";
-	say "[chargenlink ChoosingVeserus]: The veserus are winged quadrupedal dragons.  They are technically the fourth abundant species of Theoma, but most veserus live underwater such that their presence and cultural influence on the surface is limited.  They are as strong as vrash and have more stamina.  They may look like fish-dragons, cetacean-dragons, or just like vrash.  They don't have gills, and in fact do not breathe for any purpose other than speaking.  They have complex bioluminescent stripes which may be made to glow in any pattern, and while underwater they speak in glow-language.  Their only innate magic is being unbreathing.";
-	say "[chargenlink ChoosingKalla]: The kalla are wingless anthro hippogryphs.  Stronger than humans, kalla are nonetheless smaller and weaker than most dragons.  They cannot fly and are unlikely to be able to pull wagons.  Your manual dexterity is superior to that of most dragons, and you have an innate intuition for the physical (but not magical) mechanisms of the world.  Kalla are famous as inventorgons and craftsgons, and are said to have a natural affinity for Weld magics.  You have the ability to summon lightning while paying only basic drain (ie, bodily fatigue), but this violent ability is famously useless.  In general, they are considered a more limited and unfortunate kind of dragon, and this choice will make your game harder.";
-	say "[chargenlink ChoosingSwaivshon]: The swaivshon are winged furry quadrupedal dragons.  They have the stature of vrash, but they're only about as strong as vashael, which is still sufficient to pull a wagon.  Swaivshon are occasionally called 'saint souls' and it is considered expected that they never do any harm to anyone.  This positive stereotyping makes their social lives easier as other dragons naturally trust swaivshon.  Swaivshon naturally resist magic that they disapprove of, which makes them luckier as they resist negative Fates without knowing what they're resisting.  They also resist temperature extremes, physical violence, poisons of all sorts, and even necromantic energies.  Aside from this omni-resistance, they have no innate magic.";
-	say "[chargenlink ChoosingMyrskor]: The myrskor are wingless quadrupedal dragons.  They have very large fins, particularly on their cheeks.  They have pfods as vrash do, with similar dexterity and similar limitations, and they are almost as strong.  Any part of a myrskor can be made to glow brightly, as often as the myrskor wishes to make it glow, and they can summon orbs that emit warm, bright sunlight at a minor temporary cost to their sanity (it is generally considered safe and desirable to summon one every week, as they are a saleable trade good).  Myrskor can sense the distance and direction to every orb they've ever made.  Myrskor can learn veserus glow-language.";
-	say "[chargenlink ChoosingMyrghon]: The myrghon are wingless anthro dragons.  They are the smallest of dragons, shorter than vohntrai and kalla (though stronger than vohntrai), and their metabolisms run peculiarly; they tend to either pack on the pounds or find it impossible to gain weight.  Their innate magic is a set of floating gems, two for every power of ten in their age, which they can control to a range of about twenty feet with very forceful telekinesis.  Myrghon are said to share the dexterity and mechanical intuition of kalla, but they are rare on the surface as most myrghon live in the Deep-Under.  Very few myrghon have ever been born in Theoma; their species is almost 100% composed of primordial dragons who were created by the greater divinities, and as such nearly all myrskor have exactly six gems.  Being a myrghon locks the age selector at 15 careers.";
-	say "[chargenlink ChoosingVohntrai]: The vohntrai are wingless anthro dragons.  They are the weakest kind of dragon, but highly dexterous.  Their innate magic is self-resurrection.  A vohntrai who dies to any cause resurrects five years later in a safe location.  However, the death rate in Theoma is so low, that vohntrai are generally considered cursed rather than blessed, because of their weakness and the fact that their memories extend only four hundred years into the past.  They are also famously bad at necromancy.  In general, they are considered a more limited and unfortunate kind of dragon, and this choice will make your game harder.";

Their innate magic is a set of floating gems, two for every power of ten in their age, which they can control to a range of about twenty feet with very forceful telekinesis.  Myrghon are said to share the dexterity and mechanical intuition of kalla, but they are rare on the surface as most myrghon live in the Deep-Under.  Very few myrghon have ever been born in Theoma; their species is almost 100% composed of primordial dragons who were created by the greater divinities, and as such nearly all myrskor have exactly six gems.  Being a myrghon locks the age selector at 15 careers.";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Vohntrai]: The vohntrai are wingless anthro dragons.  They are the weakest kind of dragon, but highly dexterous.  Their innate magic is self-resurrection.  A vohntrai who dies to any cause resurrects five years later in a safe location.  However, the death rate in Theoma is so low, that vohntrai are generally considered cursed rather than blessed, because of their weakness and the fact that their memories extend only four hundred years into the past.  They are also famously bad at necromancy.  In general, they are considered a more limited and unfortunate kind of dragon, and this choice will make your game harder.";

You can neither fly nor pull a wagon.  Your manual dexterity is superior to that of most dragons, and you have an innate intuition for the physical (but not magical) mechanisms of the world.  Kalla are famous as inventorgons and craftsgons, and are said to have a natural affinity for Weld magics.  You have the ability to summon lightning while paying only basic drain (ie, bodily fatigue), but this violent ability is famously useless.

They have a perpetual breeze flowing about them and can manipulate the wind while paying only basic drain (ie, bodily fatigue).  This ability is called the 'amicus breeze'.

They typically wear armor, but this is generally only a show of wealth, and expensive clothing sometimes takes the place of traditional vrash armor.

They have no other innate magic.  They have the same size and dexterity as kalla, have no wings and thus cannot fly, and they lack the physical intuition of kalla.

They have pfods as vrash do, with similar dexterity and similar limitations.  Any part of a myrskor can be made to glow brightly, as often as the myrskor wishes to make it glow, and they can summon orbs that emit warm, bright sunlight at a minor temporary cost to their sanity (it is generally considered safe and indeed desirable to summon one every week, as they are a saleable trade good).  Myrskor can sense the distance and direction to every orb they've ever made.  Myrskor can learn veserus glow-language.
-
-Something strange is going on with the minds of the myrskor; the median myrskor is not super-intelligent, but it is said that the thousand smartest dragons on Theoma are all myrskor, and it is rumored that there is some secret method unique to myrskor by which an individual may make themselves more intelligent.  In terms of bodily strength, they have nearly the strength of a vrash, more than sufficient to pull a laden wagon.  Most myrskor live in the Deep-Under, where they maintain a farming economy under artificial sunlight.

-Room I is a room.  The printed name of Room I is "Being an Izerah".  "The izerah are wingless theropod dragons.  They are the smallest of the three abundant species of dragons.  Izerah have no innate magic, but they do not tire.  They have limitless stamina.  They need to sleep only every other night, and nothing stops them from sprinting for two days straight before collapsing into slumber.  They cannot fly, but their ability to sprint unceasingly means they are actually more mobile than the average vrash or vashael, who finds flying at least a little tiring.  Izerah are stereotyped for their restless nomadism, but it isn't true of all of them.  They are also stereotyped for always having energy, and that stereotype is generally accurate.  Izerah are not strong enough to pull wagons designed for vrash and vashael, but they do often pull izerah carts.
-

-Room S is a room.  The printed name of Room S is "Being a Swaivshon".  "The swaivshon are wingless furry quadrupedal dragons.  They have the stature of vrash, but they're only about as strong as vashael, which is still sufficient to pull a wagon.  Swaivshon are occasionally called 'saint souls' and it is considered expected that they never do any harm to anyone.  This positive stereotyping makes their social lives easier as other dragons naturally trust swaivshon.  Swaivshon naturally resist magic that they disapprove of, which makes them luckier as they resist negative Fates without knowing what they're resisting.  They also resist temperature extremes, physical violence, poisons of all sorts, and even necromantic energies.  They are the most resilient dragons with the possible exception of the vohntrai.  While their resilience is not likely to be relevant to the game, improved reactions from NPCs will make the game easier than the difficulty level indicates.

-Room Ve is a room.  The printed name of Room Ve is "Being a Veserus".  "The veserus are winged quadrupedal dragons.  They are technically the fourth abundant species of Theoma, but most veserus live underwater such that their presence and cultural influence on the surface is limited.  They are as strong as vrash and have more stamina than most dragons, though not as much as izerah.  They may look like fish-dragons, cetacean-dragons, or just like vrash.  They don't have gills, and in fact do not breathe for any purpose other than speaking.  They have complex bioluminescent stripes which may be made to glow in any pattern, and while underwater they speak in glow-language.  They have no innate magic.

-Sex/Gender Selection is a room.  "Sex and gender are not the same thing!  There are three primary sexes and three primary genders in Theoma.  The options are male, female, and hermaphrodite.  The land gods generally try to fit each soul to its correct body, but they're not inerrant, and some transsexuals exist on Theoma.  Fortunately, necromantic alterationism exists!  It's expensive, scarce, and has side effects severe enough to require some planning, but it exists, and once the transformation has healed the effect is quite perfect.  Gender relations are very equitable in Theoma, but being transsexual is perceived as a form of impiety by some individuals (although not the land gods themselves).  Transsexuals may face minor social problems, but there's a score bonus on retirement if you used necromancy to correct your sex to match your gender.

+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Pottergon]: A pottergon is a dragon who made their way by creating clayware.  Pots are a basic, ubiquitous trade good that are as old as the world.  They are necessary for storage and transit, and they are often used as cooking vessels or tableware.  Additionally, pottergons are responsible for making ceramic floor tiles.  In addition to the savings from having worked this career, a former pottergon will have a skill bonus applicable to finding and evaluating claywares.";
+	say "[haulergon check]";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Lumbergon]: A lumbergon practiced the harvesting and processing of wood for use in construction and manufacturing.  Considered an unskilled trade, this brings with it some familiarity with the wilderness as well as a bonus to stamina (for non-izerah).  It provides a bonus for finding and evaluating cargos of wood or woodworking tools."; 
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Smithgon]:  A smithgon is a metalworker.  This is a skilled trade that will have included a lengthy apprenticeship including some books and skillgem usage.  In Ethriel, this will have included working with the superior construction metal known as 'swaivshon alloy'.  You will start with a Piety Fatecharm of Smithing.  Taking this career again will increase the strength of its enchantment (up to 4 times).";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Huntgon]: A huntgon hunts for meat, hide, and other animal products, as well as producing a secondary intake of herbs, fungi, and edible plants.  This career comes with an extensive familiarity with wilderness areas.  You will start with a Piety Fatecharm of Hunting.  Taking this career again will increase the strength of its enchantment (up to 4 times).  Being a huntgon doesn't pay very well, but Theoma is not densely settled.  You can make your way across most lands by hunting for food.  If you're good at hunting, you can travel with no preparation.  You can even generate shipments by sweat equity.";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Farmgon]: A farmgon grows crops.  Dragons can live by meat alone, but many of them are fond of baked goods.  There's a bonus to evaluating crops, but the primary bonus is social.  Theoman farmers are frequently tight-knit.";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Authorgon]: Authorgons can be profitable in theory, but not you.  That doesn't mean you're bad at what you do.  It just means that you've struggled to find a market.  Perhaps the problem is just how expensive distribution is.  There's got to be a better way than copying texts by hand...  You spend a lot of time copying your books for distribution, and a lot of your income getting your books copied by distributors.  You're a fast, accurate writer in the literal sense, and you have a keen empathetic sense from studying literature and producing it.  The land gods might favor you...  Your piety is increased by this profession.  You start with a collection of bookgems you've already read as well as a wagonload of books for every time you take this profession, to a maximum of five wagonloads of books, after which the surplus will be converted to savings.  The five wagonloads limit is shared with philosophygon career terms.";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Philosophygon]: Philosophygons have rarely ever been profitable.  In this time period of this world, you have to be your own scribegon.  That doesn't help.  This career makes you respectable to people much richer than you, enough that they'll provide some amount of resources, but not enough that they'll make you rich.  They see you as having no need of riches.  Quite probably, you see yourself as having no need of riches, or you wouldn't have tried this.  This career is the best way to learn to teach, and it will give you a wagonload of books every time you take it, up to five wagonloads, after which the surplus will be converted to savings.  The five wagonloads limit is shared with authorgon career terms.";
+	say "[sex pest check]";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Charitygon]: The protective embrace of Fate reduces the degree to which misfortune befalls dragonkind, but sometimes what the protective embrace of Fate does to protect dragons is to direct them towards dragons who stand ready to help them.  Stepping in to provide free services is as benevolent here as it is in any world.  Career terms spent on charity work will build up your influence and leadership potential, but not your wealth.";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Rangergon]: Rangergons are huntergons who aren't serving a market.  Hunting for enjoyment, pleasure, or even ranger, the rangergon studies the wilderness and takes only as much prey as they need to stay supplied.  You will start with a Piety Fatecharm of Hunting.  Terms in this career stack with terms in huntgon for determining the level of the Fatecharm (up to four terms).  You also learn more as a rangergon, even picking up some magic.";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Physical Dissolutionist]: Physical dissolutionists are hedonistic geomancers who are only concerned with finding what is most pleasurable, and who favor physical pleasures.  They drink, play, and fuck.  They learn physical games and music, but they differ from sportsgons and musicgons by lacking dedication.  They learn sexual skills, but they differ from mere sex pests by studying magical abilities as well.  Physical dissolutionists are probably the single least reputable kind of geomancer, but they are still geomancers, and they still learn holy spells.  This career will provide a diverse range of entertainment skills and a little bit of magic.  Even sex-positive asexuals will pick up sexual skills in this career, but it is possible to be a sex-repulsed physical dissolutionist, skipping those.";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Mental Dissolutionist]: Mental dissolutionists are hedonistic geomancers who are only concerned with finding what is most pleasurable, and who favor mental pleasures.  They study games and culture, and can often be quite refined individuals.  This career provides some entertainment skills, a little bit of magic, and some influence.  This career also slightly trains sexuality even for those disinclined to initiate sex, as long as the prospect doesn't repulse them.";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Holygon]: Some dragons fall entirely into the contemplation of what is holy.  Immortality in a pleasant world frees them to spend their lives in prayer and contemplation.  This is usually a kind of geomantic dedication; holygons pick up Chime magic, and a smattering of spells from other principles.  Dragons think this career provides them the information that they need to evaluate the social dynamics of the Consensus, the reigning body of greater divinities that controls Theoma.";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Lutragon]: Lutragons love water, and they love the party culture of the tesams, who resemble otters.  Tesams don't exist in Theoma (or do they?), but they existed in prior worlds and your home city of Ethriel is one of the places where their culture is preserved.  This is one of the best ways to gain past world knowledge, but otherwise yields only entertainment skills and a modicum of hunting.  Sexuality is quite favored among Lutragons, but not so obligatory that a sex-repulsed lutragon is an impossibility.";
+	say "[petgon check]";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Musicgon]: A musicgon has dedicated themselves to pleasing the ear, or at least impressing it.  80-odd years of dedication to music will make you really quite good at it.  Can you imagine what someone would be like if they had a thousand years to dedicate to music?  Maybe practicality demands a limit, but how you distribute your careers is up to you.  In any case, the lack of celebrity, imperial, or otherwise elite culture in Theoma limits the income potential.";
+	say "[flygon check]";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Sportsgon]: A sportsgon dedicated decades of blessed eternal youth to maximizing their ability to play games of strength and agility.  This career mostly develops your physical condition.  It has the largest strength bonus of all careers, as well as a small piety bonus.  There are some good group entertainment skills here if you gather together a group of sportsgons, or dragons willing to learn.  Some dedicated mental dissolutionists put a career into being sportsgons just to maximize their ability to play every game in Theoma, covering both mind and body.";
+	say "[chargenlink Choosing Kaimagon]: A kaimagon is a specialist in a kind of divination popularly practiced in the region of Ethriel, called Kaima.  It is a distinctly regional system, with other systems predominating in other regions, but you can carry it with you.  Kaima is primarily an entertainment skill whose predictive power is bluntly inferior to actual divination magic, but kaimagons say that it preserves their serenity while telling them what the Consensus wants them to know.  Being a kaimagon will give you a tool to scrape up funds while in travel that is also good for entertaining people in your party.";

+To say haulergon check:
+	If the species of the player is kalla or the species of the player is vohntrai:
+		say "[species of the player] are almost never strong enough to haul wagons, and unlike myrghon, they do not have access to magitech wagons to take the place of physical strength.";
 	Otherwise:
-		move the player to Difficulty Selection;
+		say "[chargenlink Choosing Haulergon]: A haulergon is a a dragon who made their way by hauling goods in a local region.  This is merchant work, if very repetitive merchant work, and ably develops the mercantile skill, slightly improving the ability to find and evaluate all cargos.  It also promotes the development of stamina and teaches the reading of bookgems, which can be appreciated while walking.  Myrghon and izerah are not strong enough to haul vashael wagons, but can drive myrghon wagons and haul izerah carts respectively."
 
-Difficulty Selection is a room.  It is chargen of Sex/Gender Selection.  "The primary determinant of the difficulty of the game will be how old your character is.  Due to ubiquitous immortality, Theoma is naturally tilted towards gerontocracy.  Older dragons have had more time to build skills and save money.  Theomans consider a 'career' to be 80-100 years.  At the age of the world, you could have had up to 15 careers.  However, the earliest years were dominated by primordial dragons, and your character may not be a primordial.  You may therefore select any number up to 12 as the number of careers you have had to gain money and skill before you begin the game.  The higher the number, the easier the game.  If you are playing a Myrghon, you ARE a primordial, and you are locked to 15 careers.

-	Now the careernum of the player is 1;
-	say "You are 100 years old, and you have had 1 career.  You are fairly young by the standards of Theoma; you reached your adult size when you were 26 and you were considered biologically an adult when you were 30, but you've only just escaped dragons insisting that true social adulthood doesn't begin until your hundredth birthday.";
+To say sex pest check:
 	If the alloace spectrum of the player is allosexual:
-		say "You're not a virgin.  Some of the more starched dragons are appalled at the idea of subcentennial dragons having sex, but seventy years is a long time to combine an adult body with obligate celibacy.  By all the gods, there's a seventy year span where it's not pedophilia, as you've occasionally had to protest in defense of your lovers.";
+		say "[chargenlink Choosing Sex Pest]: With no unplanned pregnancies, no STDs, and benevolent Fates protecting individual dragons from the majority of unpleasant encounters, sexuality is very open in Theoma, and a high libido is generally considered a positive trait.  This is all some dragons need to decide that they dwell in paradise.  This career will exaggerate your basic social skills and provide a bonus to finding and evaluating cargos of intimacy aids.  The experience gained here can also help provide cheap entertainment while travelling.";
 	Otherwise:
-		do nothing;
-	Now the age of the player is 100 years;
-	move the player to Career Selector.
+		say "Some dragons make a 'career' out of sexuality, but even sex-positive asexuals lack the necessary drive.";
 
-Understand "2 Careers" or "Two Careers" as selecting two careers.  Selecting two careers is an action applying to nothing.  Instead of selecting two careers in Difficulty Selection:
-	Now the careernum of the player is 2;
-	say "You are 180 years old, and you have had 2 careers.";
-	Now the age of the player is 180 years;
-	Move the player to Career Selector.
+To say petgon check:
+	If the alloace spectrum of the player is sex-repulsed asexual:
+		say "[chargenlink Choosing Petgon]: A petgon is a dragon who has dedicated themselves to being someone else's live-in pet.  The usual benefactor is someone wealthy.  It is typical for petgons to be artists benefitting from the patronage of one person willing and able to support them.  It is not strictly necessary that a 'petgon' is a submissive partner in their relationship.  You might have deeply loved your benefactor, or you might have thought you'd get a share of their wealth, but either way it obviously didn't last forever considering that you're going adventuring without them or their money.  These relationships are typically sexual, but it's possible in the absence of sex to pursue these relationships for love and/or artistic patronage.";

+		say "Your species is not capable of flight, and does not typically spend all day jogging just for fun.";
+	Otherwise if the species of the player is izerah:
+		say "[chargenlink Choosing Flygon]: Your species is not capable of flight, but some izerah are called flygons anyways.  They're the ones who just run non-stop for the sheer pleasure of running.  This is considered pretty dumb — popular opinion is that you ought to at least be carrying trade goods (working as a haulergon) while running long distances, and flygons are disparaged as bums — but there's a certain freedom in traveling places without needing to worry about market conditions.  This career mostly develops your physical condition.  It has the largest speed bonus of all careers.  Be careful about overinvesting in speed.  You'll be traveling with others at some point, won't you?  You'll never be faster than the slowest member of your party.  If you do ground travel with non-izerah, the base speed of the izerah will never be met by the mixed-species group, and all career speed bonuses will be wasted.  Even with other izerah, being the most fly dragon in the party will mean slowing down for izerah who didn't take their species gift in the same direction.";
+	Otherwise:
+		say "[chargenlink Choosing Flygon]: A flygon is a dragon who has dedicated themselves to flight.  You may have worked as a courier or traded small amounts of rare goods, or you may even have leaned on beggary, but your priority was always spending as much time as possible in the air.  You fly faster with less fatigue and boredom than other dragons.  This career mostly develops your physical condition.  It has the largest speed bonus of all careers.

You spend a lot of time copying your books for distribution, and a lot of your income getting your books copied by distributors.  You're a fast, accurate writer in the literal sense, and you have a keen empathetic sense from studying literature and producing it.  The land gods might favor you...

This career mostly develops your physical condition.  It has the largest speed bonus of all careers, as well as a small piety bonus.  Be careful about overinvesting in speed.  You'll be traveling with others at some point, won't you?  You'll never be faster than the slowest member of your party.  If you do ground travel with non-izerah, the base speed of the izerah will never be met by the mixed-species group, and all career speed bonuses will be wasted.

It is a distinctly regional system, with other systems predominating in other regions, but you can carry it with you.  Kaima is primarily an entertainment skill whose predictive power is bluntly inferior to actual divination magic, but kaimagons say that it preserves their serenity while telling them what the Consensus wants them to know.  Being a kaimagon will give you a tool to scrape up funds while in travel that is also good for entertaining people in your party.";

-Kaimagon has the following +'s:  Kaima 4, Panhandling 2, Theology 1, Sex Appeal 1, Erotic Art 1.  This is an XP value of 1,178.  If I raise Panhandling to 3, it becomes an XP value of 1,355.  If I add Teaching 1, it becomes 1,455.  I'm going to raise theology to 3, add visual arts to 1, add writing to 1, add past world knowledge to 1.  That brings the XP total to 1,865.  I'll raise Teaching to 2 and games (mental) to 1.
-Sportsgon has the following +'s:  Games (Physical) 4, Games (Mental) 2, Teaching 1, Sex Appeal 1, Erotic Art 1.  This is an XP value of 1,178.  If I raise the Sex Appeal item to 2, that's 1,311 XP.  This number is too low.  What if I add Hunting and Gathering at 2, then...  I feel like I can't repair this, and the problem is I don't respect dragons playing sports.  I'll at least raise Teaching to 2.
-Flygon has the following +'s:  Panhandling 3, Games (Physical) 3, Bookgems 2, Song 1, Skillgems 1, Sex Appeal 1, Erotic Art 1.  This is an XP value of 1,453, which is excessive for a career that was intended to provide inferior XP in exchange for a stat bonus.  Adjusting Panhandling to 2 and Games (Physical) to 2, this drops to 1,099, which still seems too high.  If all skills drop to 1, it yields 700 XP, which I think sounds right.  So that's how I'll handle it.  List above updated.  Wait, no.  What was I thinking?  1,453 XP wasn't enough.  The stat bonus generally won't apply unless the player is traveling alone.  It shouldn't penalize XP harshly.  I'm going to go back to the initial list, while raising Panhandling to 4 and Song to 2, then add Mercantile to 1.  That's 1,921 experience.
-Musicgon has the following +'s:  Song 4, Instrument 4, Panhandling 1, Sex Appeal 1, Erotic Art 1.  That's 1,590 XP, which I think I want to leave intact.  The musicgon career points out that you don't need to do it too many times...  I'm going to add Carousing 1, raise Sex Appeal to 2, and add Games (Mental) at 1.  I'm going to add Skillgems at 3.  The XP total is 2,333.  Hm.  I'm going to raise Sex Appeal to 3.
-Petgon has Sex Appeal 3, Erotic Art 3, Games (Mental) 3, Games (Physical) 2, Visual Arts 2, Theology 1, Skillgems 1, Bookgems 1,  This is an XP value of 1,996.  I'm raising visual arts to 4 and writing to 2.  The XP total is 2,641.
-Lutragon has Games (Physical) 1, Games (Mental) 1, Hunting 1, Sex Appeal 1, Erotic Art 1.  That's 500 XP, which is way too small.  Oh, I forgot Past World Knowledge.  If I give them Past World Knowledge 4, they get a total of 1,145 XP.  If I raise the two Games skills to 2 each, that's 1,411 XP.  Reducing Past World Knowledge to 3 and adding Carousing 2, they have 1,609 XP.  I think I'll raise Carousing to 4 and put Sex Appeal and Erotic Art to 2.
-Holygon has Theology 4, Teaching 3, Bookgems 2, Influence 1, Skillgems 1, Sex Appeal 1, Erotic Art 1.  That's an XP value of 1,688.  I'm raising bookgems to 4 and adding Kaima 1.  That's an XP tally of 2,100.

-Physical Dissolutionist has Erotic Art 3, Sex Appeal 3, Games (Physical) 2, Hunting 1, Gatherer 1, Theology 1, Trophy Hunter 1, Song 1.  That's an XP value of 1,686.  I'm dropping the Sex Appeal to 2, and raising Hunting and Gatherer to 2.  I'm adding Teaching 1 and Panhandling 1.  The new XP value is 1,842.  Wait, is that right?  Erotic Art 3, Sex Appeal 2, Games (Physical) 2, Hunting 2, Gatherer 2, Theology 1, Trophy Hunter 1, Song 1.  1,742.  Huh.  That's too low.  Wait, obviously!  They're missing carousing!  They should be Carousing 4.
-Rangergon has Hunter 4, Ecologist 3, Trophy Hunter 3, Gatherer 2, Sex Appeal 1, Erotic Art 1.  That's an XP value of 1,898.  I'm adding physical games 1, bookgems 1, and bringing sex appeal up to 2.  The XP tally is 2,131.
