    Ah yes, but the hard thing about Nogga's is finding them in the first place, hence the name noggahide. Noggas streach to a high degree so Ewes only need a few.

    Nogga's are interesting, I once began to write a thesis that the Naga were possibly the basis of the Mermaid legends, and a link between dragons and merfolk. Interesting the research went.

    On a side note, there is a tribe of people called the Nogga. They are unique in that they don't really wear clothing, except for the women who keep their breast covered. The logic is that everything else is as they were born with, but breast don't start out there are birth, so when they appear, they need to be covered.
