Another interesting fact:

Dragonkin have two kinds of roar, the invitation roar that's just for show and an actual Dragon Roar that kills pawns and inflicts debilitations.

Now, there may happen that one will be able to attack the dragonkin while not being detected, ti when it's in out of the battle stance. This attack, or series of attacks have better damage potential and better chance of staggering/knocking down the beast.

Except that if one knocks down the beast and then approch it, the beast may run its inviitation roar, simply overriding its reeling animation. Sad.

So, if you knock it down unnoticed, don't try to get close when you think it won't stand up.
