I would suggest that the second case would also be dragon barbeque but
at least a suitably prepared fighter would have a fair chance to fight
his way out of the confrontation. The chances of actually defeating a
dragon should be close to non-existent. Because I believe a game will
be much more interesting if players can't hope to be the all powerfull
characters they can be on ordinary muds.
I'm also not too thrilled about the dragon-killing, weakening, magical
and so on equipment. From what I have seen on muds this kind of equip-
ment tends to quickly overwhelm the other aspects of a game. Sooner or
later it ends up with players running around with swords of ultimate
destruction and wearing armour of invulnerability. Skills and anything
else for that matter become insignificant compared to that. The result
is that the games becomes very shallow.

My preference would be the same kind of control any prey has over their
predator: hide, run or be eaten.

First off, yes. Dragons should be avoided at all cost in this scenario.
But the risk they represent is not that big. They don't travel much be-
yond their lairs. They are not in general after players. Unless it is
hungry or the player in question carries something that would be a nice
addition to said dragon's hoard. And even then it is not looking very
hard to find humans. Hoarses and cows in general find it much harder to
hide themselves from a dragon.
Very powerful players might be able to hold their ground against a dra-
gon for a time and fight their way out of a confrontation. But they too
must eventually run for it. The creatures in a game should be smart en-
ough not to pursue fights that are uncomfortable or uncertain. Dragons
don't hunt after players that are able to hurt them, unless they really
want something from that player. How to define that is another problem,
perhaps something that was stolen from the dragon's hoard would qualify
for that?
> To what extent can your player's control of influence the habits of

That's a tall order for any player to control the habit of dragon. Of
course the more dangerous a creature is, the less likely it should be
that a player actually encounters one. And if they do encounter one,
there shouldn't automatically be a fight. This is why the ability to
hide from such creatures is important.
And being able to hide from something also means not wearing anything
that might attrackt attention. Like shiny armour, magical or blessed
items and so on. Being skilled at hiding might help too.
The idea is not to create a hand of fate, but to provide a game where
the players are clearly not the most powerfull beings. The ability to
hide, or escape fighting from such confrontations is to -prevent- the
dragons from turning into such hands of fate.
Of course I have no idea if it actually will work out like that but I
do hope it makes for a more interesting game.
