[Game of Thrones] Dragons Upgrades

[RoTt35]

• Note: the CRT does not contain stuff from Season 3 of House of the Dragon

Balerion
This calc was accepted, which would upgrade Balerion's fire breath to High 7-C, I guees only he would scale

Dragons AP

“At the time, the Ghiscari Empire dominated much of the great eastern continent and tried to stop Valyria's expansion. The Ghiscari legions attacked the Valyrians five times, but could never defeat them. Finally, the Valyrians marched on their capital, Old Ghis, and obliterated it, turning its streets and buildings to ash with dragon flame, and wiping the Ghiscari people and their culture off the face of the earth.”

Based on that, I’m not sure if it would be fine to scale the fire breath of dragons to Low 7-C going by this calc. And regarding the specific dragons that could scale from it, I guess it would be fine for the largest and oldest dragons like Balerion (who scales higher anyway) and Vhagar. Medium sized dragons like Meleys can withstand the fire breath of larger dragons like Vhagar, and both can injure each other with their claws and teeth, so their physical AP and durability should scale from their fire breath (all this assuming the scaling based on that calc is valid in the first place)

• I also don't know if that could change the stats of Daenerys' dragons, who despite being only 8 years old they are among the largest (70.66 to 84.792 meters, compared to Vhagar's 90 meters at over 134 years old), and also based on the fact that dragons can withstand the fire breath of other dragons

Dragons Speed
This calc was accepted, which resulted in Supersonic+ speed for Arrax and the half of that at Supersonic for Vhagar. Meleys is stated to be the fastest beast ever known, so she would upscale from both. Although Vhagar was able to pursue Arrax and catch Meleys in mid-flight, so I'm not sure if she could scale higher

• I'm not sure if the current scaling of the old dragons being relative to Daenerys' dragons at Hypersonic (which is currently accepted just as a likely on Balerion's profile) should change, if not I guess their speed would be "Supersonic+, likely Hypersonic"

Dragons Intelligence
I think their intelligence should be upgraded to High Animalistic based on their current justification and them being intelligent, “more intelligent than men according to some maesters:” having affection for their friends and fury for their enemies, remembering them and recognizing a stranger as an ally

• Extra: Criston Cole should have Social Influencing since he led and motivated his troops to fight alongside their king and march into battle against a dragon

Wow, perfect CRT to find right as I start compiling stuff for a Vhagar profile lol.

Agree for Balerion's fire breath upgrade.
Disagree with scaling all dragons to the Low 7-C calc (I don't see how the scan shows that at all lol, maybe I'm misinterpreting your proposal) But! Balerion, and Vhagar should scale since they're both larger then Drogon, who performed the feat. And due to Meleys fighting Vhagar physically and tanking the fire breath, that should make those three scale to the calc physically --- Drogon also scales since they're almost the size of Vhagar, and thus should be larger than Meleys. Dany's other dragons scale too, as their currently accepted as scaling to Drogon physically. Though again, I disagree with it being a universal buff.

Speed is a little tricky. Firstly, agree with Meleys upscale, and I think Vhagar should scale, via their fight with Meleys, as well as scaling to other dragons... SPEAKING OF: Currently we have (as far as I know) three flight speed calcs for dragons.

• Supersonic/Supersonic+ Old Dragon calc
• Supersonic+ Dany Dragon Calc
• Hypersonic Dany Dragon Calc

It doesn't make any sense narratively for Dany's dragons to be massively faster than even the fastest Old Dragon, and of the feats, Supersonic+ seems to be more consistent. You're proposing we scale Old Dragons to At least Supersonic+ likely hypersonic, I think it makes much more sense to scale all dragons to At least Supersonic+ likely hypersonic.
Agree with the Dragon intel upgrade. Also while we're buffing the dragons intelligence, might was well throw in the infamous scene where Drogon understood symbolism lol
Agree with the Criston Cole buff

It's basically almost the same feat (and thus calc) as Drogon destroying King's Landing, with the difference that the Valyrian dragons completely destroyed the capital city, but also Vhagar should be comparable to Drogon too

Also while we're buffing the dragons intelligence, might was well throw in the infamous scene where Drogon understood symbolism lol

Actually, according to the script, the Iron Throne was just collateral damage from Drogon's rage, which makes it worse

Two similar feats can be calculated at wildly different results (especially since the Ghis feat basically happens offscreen). But yes Vhagar should scale to Drogon, pretty sure I said this
