images. I used the well-known ancient red dragons
from peterm's dragon quest as base models for the new
ancient dragon arch. Apart from that I rose a few
resistances by a small amount, most noteworthy:
reducing cold vuln from -100 to -50, otherwise they
just die too quick in a snowstorm.
Also re-added the thin black frame to the sign, to
have it better visible, especially on brownish backgrounds.

I have tried my best to distribute these blinding
resistances not at random, but in reasonable
and consistent ways:
Dragons and demons are now mostly immune to blinding.
IMO they have such omnipotent senses that merely
blinding their eyes doesn't help. Lesser forms of
these creatures don't have full immunity though.
The undead are well resistant to blinding as they
don't have biological eyes, which makes it harder to blind them.
Only few of them are totally immune however.
Angels are also well resistant to blinding. Being
minions of Valriel they have experience with blinding
"techniques" and thus know how to protect against it.
Also immune to blinding are creatures which just don't
have any eyes. E.g. giant worms, slimes and crawling chaos.
All humaniod monsters, including the orcish and trollish
races, remain without blinding resistance.
Most low-level monsters generally have either low or no
blinding resistance (as long as they have eyes).
Extremely vulnerable to blinding are one-eyed creatures:
Cyclopses, dreads and beholders.
[Sidenote: I have reduced cyclops experience from 400000
to 250000 which I think is still more than enough.]

Especially noticeable is the new picture for
the chinese dragon. Due to the special "importance"
of this dragon I had set up a poll weither the
image is appreciate, which turned out 7:3 in favour.
Note that the old image continues to exist both
in the xpm and alternate png set.

Including an all-new electric dragon, improved dread,
giant and ogre.

standard set. They don't fit in perspective but
surely are better than the screwy scaled-up-from-xpm
counterparts.

to the xpm images centered but not scaled.
The results are not too bad.
