<< Does anyone know, can anyone think of any source where a dragonewt's eyes are described? Are they any specific colour, shape, structure? >>
The Beast Rune is also known as the Dragon's Eye, according to RQ2, "and is supposed to represent the armour plate over a dragon's eye"....." It is thought to have originally been a dragonewt Rune, and its complexity would indicate this."
I imagine that there are lots of different colours, that the pupil is shaped like a three pointed star, and that it is otherwise similar to a lizard or snake, possibly without eyelids. I have no other sources for this.
Just because I think it is funny I would like to pass on a friend of mine's view of Dragonewt mouths. Based on a glance at the cover of RQ2 he thought that Dragonewts had huge round mouths (actually, the heroines shield). In view of some of the other weird things in GLorantha (imagine a "Nasobemepak") this isn't that stupid (but it is still stupid).
