Dragon Army was a crew that sailed the Cobalt Ocean.

History

Dragon Army was originally founded by Bluetta on the Cobalt ocean. She was approached by Ewiggins (Ender) and asked if she would be willing to give up the crew to him as he would in the future need it for a cunning plan. She graciously handed the captaincy over to him, and with the help of his uncle the crew was shelved for the time being while Ewiggins worked on his stats, and learned how to play the different parts of the game.

The Dragon Army is in reference to the army that Ender Wiggin was given in the book Enders Game by Orson Scott Card. It was a training group at the Battle School. They were the best trained and most successful army at the school when Ender was handed the command of it. His idea for his army was to train them as best he could and give them an initial plan, and then allow them to make decisions during battles that would support the whole group and further the army to the goal of winning.

Ewiggins thinks that the same idea would work in YPP, training people and giving them a broader plan to work toward. The emphasis of course being on training. And so the brainchild of Dragon Army was born. The goal of the crew will be to train anyone who wants to learn in the different parts of the game. SO positions will be those officers who are willing to take the time to train new pirates in the parts of the game that they are most interested in.

By December of 2007, Ewiggins will have replaced Byebyemilk as captain of the crew.
