DragonBond

Hey there! My name's Crow, and welcome to my first mod!

I was surprised to find there weren't any faction mods inspired by the Targaryens, so I decided to dive in and get my hands dirty. What started as a simple faction mod has grown into something much bigger: a full expansion featuring the proud, dragon-bonded Velonir.

Due to my limited capabilities I couldn't do everything that I wanted but I hope that with some more help from the community I can get those details in yet.

I hope you enjoy playing as much as I enjoyed creating it!

• RimWorld of the Dragon 1.5 - Dragons from this mod can be bonded with.
  
• Medieval Overhaul
  
• Grimstone Beasts - Grimshadow can be bonded with.
  
• The Profaned - Undead Dragon can be bonded with.
  
• Race to the Rim - All Dragons in this mod can be bonded with.
  
• ATH's Draconic Style - The Velonir factions use ATH's Draconic style if it is installed.
  
• Vanilla Ideology Expanded - Memes & Structures - The Velonir use Aristocratic and Fire Worship if it is installed.
  
• Vanilla Psycasts Expanded
  - Dragon Rider Pawns have fire Psycasts if it is installed.
  
• Scaled World - Dragons from this mod can be bonded with.
  
• Dragon Genetics - Dragons from this mod can be bonded with.
  
• Monster Hunter RimWorld - Elder Dragons and some Fanged Wyverns can be bonded with
  
• [Temporary 1.5 update] [RWY]Dragon's Descent: Void Dwellers - Dragons from this mod can be bonded with.
  
• Alpha Memes - Funeral Pyre becomes functional and adds a new funeral type.

I still have big plans for DragonBond, but if I kept waiting for it to be "perfect," it might never see the light of day. That said, here's a sneak peek of what's coming next:

• Capes
  
• More Outfits and Armors
  
• Weapons
  
• Dragon Bond Abilities
  
• Dragon Hunters Ideology
  
• Dragon Armor

I don't like [insert feature here]!
No worries! I’ve included mod options for the Dragon manhunting chance when using the DragonBond ability and for Faction disapproval, so you can tweak the odds or disable them entirely. If there’s something else you’d like to see as optional, just let me know!

Can I commission you?
For art? Absolutely!
For a simple, xml mod? Sure, we can discuss it, though I’m not the best person for it.
For C#? Nope, sorry. There are many talented coders out there who would love to take on commissions. My mod is only alive because I keep smashing my head against a wall until something works! I'm definitely not a professional coder.

Do I need all the DLC to play this?
No, you don't! I tried to optimize it so everyone can enjoy the mod. Without Biotech you won't have the Velonir race nor their bond Ability, but you'll get the armors and the Faction.

The Dragon bonds are boring/op!
I’m open to feedback! Please let me know how I can improve them. I’d love to hear everyone’s ideas, and I’m happy to make tweaks.

The armors are unbalanced!
This mod was made with Medieval Overhaul in mind, so it may seem weaker if you're not using that mod. But feel free to tweak them however you'd like!

I found a bug!
Please let me know! I’ve tried to be thorough, but I’m sure a few bugs might have slipped through. Any reports would be greatly appreciated!

How can I reach out to you?
You can find me in the official Dragons Descent[discord.gg] discord server! I’m a bit quiet, but I’m always around, and there’s a dedicated channel to discuss this mod!

You didn't add compatibility with this mod!
Do let me know if you'd like me to add compatibility to a mod that I missed checking out. You can also make a patch yourself if you'd like!

Can I make a mod on top of your mod's concept?
Yep! Feel free to use anything that I've done in this mod as long as you credit me!
