Hey all,
So this is a bit of a two-part question for the community:
Now, full disclosure: I haven’t been active in the community for quite a while. Life got busy, but I recently found some time again and jumped back into the ServUO world—turns out I even had an old account here I forgot I made. So if you’re reading this and wondering, “Why’s this guy talking about old stuff like Dragonkin?”—trust me, I get it. I’m playing catch-up. But while digging through my old server files (originally RunUO-based), I found a mod we used to run that added a Dragonkin armor system. It made for a great player event and gave people real incentive to go out hunting tougher dragons.
I’ve since reworked it for ServUO and added a bunch of custom elements to give it an expansion-style feel. Here’s what’s included in the current version:
I'm happy to polish it up for release if there’s interest. I know I’ve been out of the loop, but I’d love to contribute something useful now that I’m back in the mix.
Let me know if this would be something you'd use or want to see shared!
So this is a bit of a two-part question for the community:
- Is there already a Dragonkin system floating around out there for ServUO that everyone uses or has access to?
- If not, would anyone be interested if I shared the custom version I’ve been working on?

I’ve since reworked it for ServUO and added a bunch of custom elements to give it an expansion-style feel. Here’s what’s included in the current version:
- DragonForge – A recolored forge (hue 1801) required to craft Dragonkin gear.
- Forge Deed & Addon – Admin placeable or player-placed for housing setups or quest hubs.
- 8 Dragonkin Armor Sets – Based on ores: Iron, Copper, Shadow, Bronze, Gold, Agapite, Verite, and Valorite. Each gives per-piece bonuses and has a full 5-piece set bonus:
- Iron/Copper: +5% damage, skill cap 105%
- Shadow/Bronze: +10% damage, skill cap 110%
- Gold/Agapite: +15% damage, skill cap 115%
- Verite/Valorite: +20% damage, skill cap 120%
- Custom Recipe Scrolls – Required for crafting; rare loot drops from dragons/wyverns aligned to each ore type.
- Vendor System – Players can trade unwanted scrolls for Dragonkin Tokens, which can then be used to purchase rarer scrolls from a second vendor.
- Scaled Cloak of the Dragonkin – Rare drop with solid bonuses: +10 Fire Resist, +1 HP Regen, +100 Luck, 5% Lower Mana Cost, Night Sight. Bonus effect if worn with 3+ Dragonkin pieces: +4 HP Regen and 20% Lower Reg Cost.
- Organized Folder System – All files structured in Scripts > Custom > DragonForge with logical subfolders for easy install and upkeep.
I'm happy to polish it up for release if there’s interest. I know I’ve been out of the loop, but I’d love to contribute something useful now that I’m back in the mix.
