Another possibility: Whenever one hydra dies, everyone gets a head. Heads from the dead hydra get distributed first, then we bring in waitlisters to fill in the other slots.

No clue what happens when we have more heads than hydras. Everyone gets two heads?

[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.

Makes sense especially if you are trying to use different mechanics to the prequels.

Doesn't fit with the lore I've made.

Incarnation of a head on another hydra only occurs between members of the hive mind, which is composed only of those in those that are born together as siblings.  New heads don't manifest out of thin air.

Maybe as a hydra head dies, it's mind begins to split and the new head is the second personality?

Could work, but meh.  I've stated a limit.  I'm sticking by it.

Name: Tyaeth
Most Prevalent Aspect: Happiness! (This was one of the examples you gave)
Element: Water
Appearance: (I'm too lazy too make this fancy, soooo...) Dark blue scales, aside from some light green ones scattered around (I guess the closest thing would be like a Dalmatian. Except a hydra.), with a short (as in height), long (Length) body and a neck that is neither long nor short. Long, broad, semi-flat tail. Fin-like wings, long prehensile claws (I guess this would hold fish and food in general better), bright pink eyes, shark-like maw/teeth. ((Ahem, yes, I know essentially nothing about hydras, and have probably just made the most derpy-looking and non-lore friendly thing in existence. I also failed at making him look like a reasonable fishy hydra, but I don't feel like changing it.))
Personality: Tyaeth is incredibly friendly and helpful, refusing to eat most sentient (as in human, etc.) beings unless there is no other choice, or they are threatening him. While not gullible, he generally dislikes being a leader and will help others with their goals as long as it doesn't go against his.... Well, personality. ((Ugh. Thinking at school is hard, mostly just wanted to get this in before Turn 1.))

You didn't need to worry.  I was going to wait until I had 8-12 to start the game.  Granted, I should have bumped the thread from time to time...

Most Prevalent Aspect: Ambition
Element: Shadow
Appearance: Ash-black scales, interspersed with the ocasional red scale or two. His body is large, and his eyes glow a fiery red. His neck is strangely short when compared to his body.His tail is somewhat longer than his neck, but not by much, and it ends in a short, barbed spike. His wings are bat-like in appearence, and each of them is as long as his torso is wide. His body is also jagged, like that of a large rock, as are his teeth.
Personality: Ambitious, proud and narcisistic, with a hint of jealousy here and there.
