Oh no I mean the bonding style. Problem with dragons if that if you don't get them to pound you have a, at worst case, a several dozen ton warmachine that hates everything sitting in your backyard sulking about not being able to eat ice cream because its mechanical.
But those are just human drama elements. If you cant bond with it you cant bond it with it, we'll just take it back and refund what we can and put it in a Dragon orphanarium up for adoption for other Dragon friendly family for as cheap as we can.
So yeah. You can make a familiar but it will only survive as long as your creation (humanity) is positive to it on some level. If you can let it to try to earn that positivety itself by trying to get you to inprint on it. It wins, and by default, becomes a living being, by the force of your love for it.
I'm just saying I can build a body you guys can inprint your various internal dragons onto for about 150.000$. Assuming I can first build the prototype to test the concept. Which may be less or more depending on how it ends up being done. So the first actual dragon can be built for 75.000-400.000$ or so.
Idea would be that each is an individually programmed preference style kind of to "fit" what a dragon "adult" (one of the programmers who gives out emotional reactions) would do in such a situation and we copy those out and program prefrences for family members based on that and go from there. Kind of like how you would program a NPC in a large MMO. We just spend a considerable time developing a good algorithm that can slowly grow based on the stable fountain provided by the interviewed "adult dragon" (for example, me(Host only with no subsets which are caused by boredom and mushroom aftereffect)), TheEternal, any of my close friends with preparation, Plenum, BL, (Edit: I cant believe we are back to this she who must not be named game, Jesus H Christ) etc). Such a "adult dragon" is simply interviewed about their evaluation after following the target family at the last state of the programming process of the nature of all interactions and how a dragon would find preference. Because while we can not dynamically code every human situation into any AI and produce anything better than a roomba. We can produce situation specific algorithms based on say the top 100 locations visited in the past year by all family members. We add that to a algorithm that can slowly learn to walk in any terrain with time and then when you "take the dragon to the country" it slowly learns stuff like climbing trees but it might take it as much as years. This will be done by providing large shock proof HD's which are mostly empty which the AI can use to randomly mutate better versions of its previous version and thus constantly improve. Such an improvement skill is limited by CPU, Individual emphasis (what the AI wants to do to improve its social standing (your opinion of it)), and HD (How much hard drive (memory space) does it have to run simulations of what might happen and store the possible results for comparison instead of having to do it real time (such as comparing movies in memory while "in sleep mode" to new behavior models with large prestored movie files instead of needing a high bandwith "movie from the internet" connection with a high CPU capacity). I hope everyone is with me on why the design and building of a Dragon is an individual affair and can never be "factory made". After maybe 20-30 years in the computer industry we are now at very long last starting to be able to produce "one style pc's" for all applications from running servers to hand computers.
From the first Dragon that is custom made to to the first Dragon that can be moved from one physical platform to any random physical dragon platform/environment will take centuries or even millenia.
So. Tl;Dr: I know you guys are busy with your own things. But I am serious when I say that I could summon a Dragon for 400.000$ and 150.000$ for each individual after that. I have thought out every step along the way and know the general ins and outs of how to perform this task to the satisfaction of a majority of Dragon enthisasts opinions world wide to be, the first physical Dragon.
Or at least the first in Living memory.
Dragon would be able to reproduce.
