Dragons remembering their lesser form's racial language

When someone transforms into a dragon, they will forget the racial language of their lesser form.  As dragons retain the knowledge of the other languages learned, would it not make sense to recall that language as well?

  • racial language is inherited by birth in Achaea. Yes, it can be learned, but if you didn't commit to the lessons, then changing into a Dragon (a racial change) will cause lose your racial language. There's a give and take here. Consequence regardless of how minor. If you want to maintain your lesserform language then invest the gold into the lessons.

    Reincarnating throws a wrench in the concept, but yes, I agree with the premise. You can throw lessons into it even though it's 'native' - if it's important to you, do so. I have an alt that went from atavian to troll, and I spent the gold/lessons learning atavian before changing, for that reason.

  • Reincarnation doesn't quite throw a wrench into anything. Racial language is essentially genetic in Achaea.

    Thats an interesting way to see it!

    And you won't understand the cause of your grief...


    ...But you'll always follow the voices beneath.

  • There's more to the language than just that, but thats a simple enough view to get my point across.

    I was referring to the 'by birth' part. I agree completely, it's a part of being a race.
