<h1 style="text-align: center;">Read the story below, then choose how Remota<br />
should respond to evolve to the next stage<br />
of social development.</h1>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-626" style="border: 2px solid black;" title="Remota at Bandi Desert" src="http://social-skills-games.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Remota_Acceptance_Bandi.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="220" /></p>
<p>Remota loves to go to the Bandi Desert because it reminds her of her home planet.  Other Midling Dragons, however, go there to polish their claws.  Dragons have found that walking on the desert sand on all fours (they really have fun doing this and often play a funny crawl-and-chase game) is the best way to get shiny, sharp, and attractive claws.  Remota cannot stand this loud, foolish playing in the hot, quiet desert.  It bothers Remota that Midling Dragons pay so much pointless attention to the appearance of their claws.  Should she say something to the other Midling Dragons?  What should she say?</p>
<p>1. <span style="color: #0000ff;"> </span>“Hey guys, when you are done with your claw sharpening, give me a call.  I will be over there enjoying the desert rocks.  Maybe we can look for round pebbles together or go flying in the updrafts.”</p>

That works!  Remota is being accepting of others, respectful of differences.  The Light Force, <span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Acceptance</strong></span>, has taught her well.  Congratulations.  <a title="You Have Evolved!" href="../social-skills-activities/remota-evolved/" target="_self">You have evolved!</a> If you want, you can <a title="Play Ryuu Again" href="../social-skills-activities/" target="_self">play again</a>.</p>

need them.</p>

Oh dear.  That is evidence of the Dark Force,<strong> <span style="color: #000000;">Isolator</span></strong>.  Let’s hope that the <strong> <span style="color: #000000;">Interactors</span></strong> comes to the rescue.  Try another answer.</p>

This might be just what Remota is thinking, but it’s not the best way to express herself to her friends.  It seems like the Dark Forces, <span style="color: #000000;"><strong><span style="color: #000000;">Oblivion</span> </strong></span>and the<br />
<span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Injustice Collector</strong></span>, are lurking around Bandi Desert.  Try another answer.</p>

<p></div></p>
<p>4. <span style="color: #0000ff;"> </span>Remota decides not to say anything but to fly off for a few minutes to calm herself down and figure out what she should do.  Flying around in circles particularly seems to help her think clearly.</p>

Good plan.  Remota is giving herself time to think before she says or does something that might hurt her friends’ feelings.  <span style="color: #000000;"><strong>Releaser</strong></span> must be at her side.

<h1 style="text-align: center;">Read the story below, then choose how Remota<br />
should respond to evolve to the next stage<br />
of social development.</h1>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-628" style="border: 2px solid black;" title="Remota at the Crossroads" src="http://social-skills-games.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Remota_Flexibility_Crossroads.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="217" /></p>
<p>Remota was watching and guiding some younger Dragons as they played Knightcastle, a board game (something like chess) that Dragons love to play.  An Elder came by and asked Remota if she would agree to be a Knightcastle Coach every afternoon for the next month.  The Elder offered to give her a fine collection of round pebbles as a reward for doing this job.  This job would be quite an honor for Remota and she loves round pebbles, but usually in the afternoons she spends time flying by herself, way high up in the sky, thinking about the faraway planet where she was born.  What should she do — give up her afternoons of peaceful flying for a month and be the Knightcastle coach or continue to fly by herself every afternoon?</p>
<p>1. Remota should ask the Elder if she could think about this and get back to him later in the day.  She needs time to calm her body down a little (she realizes she is awfully tense!) and think this situation through.</p>
<p><a style="display:none;" id="ddetlink1555452522" href="javascript:expand(document.getElementById('ddet1555452522'))">(Click to see if Remota has evolved!)</a>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">You go, girl!  Excellent plan of action.  Remota has learned from the Light Forces, <strong>Cope-a-setic</strong> and <strong>Emotional Know-How</strong>.  Congratulations.  <a title="You Have Evolved!" href="http://social-skills-games.com/social-skills-activities/remota-evolved/" target="_self">You have evolved!</a> If you want, you can <a title="Play Ryuu Again" href="http://social-skills-games.com/social-skills-activities/" target="_self">play again</a>.</span></p>

<p></div></p>
<p>2. Remota feels her body getting tense and she begins breathing quickly, blowing wisps of smoke into the Elder’s face.  This decision makes her anxious and worried, and she wants to fly away, up into the sky where no one asks anything of her.</p>
<p><a style="display:none;" id="ddetlink1294221965" href="javascript:expand(document.getElementById('ddet1294221965'))">(Click to see if Remota has evolved!)</a>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Remota seems to be under the influence of <strong>Constrictor</strong>.  She wasn’t able to cope with this difficult decision.  Too bad!  Try another answer.</span></p>

<td width="45%"></td>

<p></div></p>
<p>3. Remota should tell the Elder that she couldn’t do this because she always does something else in the afternoons and doesn’t want to change her routine.</p>
<p><a style="display:none;" id="ddetlink795407019" href="javascript:expand(document.getElementById('ddet795407019'))">(Click to see if Remota has evolved!)</a>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">The Dark Force, <strong>Rigidity</strong>, seems to have Remota in his invisible grasp.  She can’t change her routine even for a good job that would last only a month.  Try another answer.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Click the thumbnail to see the Rigidity card.</strong></p>

</a>
</td>
<td width="45%"></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p></div></p>
<p>4. Remota should think this through and decide that although she loves to fly very high, all alone, she can do that later in the day — even in the moonlight.  She likes the idea of coaching the young Knightcastle players and she wants those round pebbles.  The schedule change might be hard, but she will get through it.</p>
<p><a style="display:none;" id="ddetlink343147382" href="javascript:expand(document.getElementById('ddet343147382'))">(Click to see if Remota has evolved!)</a>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Hurray!  Good decision for Remota.  She is being so flexible — did the Light Force, <strong>Flexibility</strong>, help her with this?  She certainly told the invisible villain, <strong>Isolator</strong>, to get lost!  Congratulations.  <a title="You Have Evolved!" href="http://social-skills-games.com/social-skills-activities/remota-evolved/" target="_self">You have evolved!</a> If you want, you can <a title="Play Ryuu Again" href="http://social-skills-games.com/social-skills-activities/" target="_self">play again</a>.</span></p>

<h1 style="text-align: center;">Read the story below, then choose how Remota<br />
should respond to evolve to the next stage<br />
of social development.</h1>

<p>Remota flies to Bleakwood Forest sometimes to lie amongst the trees.  In the forest, Remota likes to think about boy Dragons but not any that she actually knows.  She daydreams about handsome and perfect Dragon princes from her home planet.  Her daydreams feel nice at first.  But then she feels sad.  She worries that she will never find a boy Dragon to be her mate in Ryuu.  What should she do?</p>
<p>1. <span style="color: #0000ff;"> </span>Remota should make a list when she goes home of what makes a good prince and what makes a bad prince.  And she should stick to this list, no matter what.  She could even show this list to the boy Dragons of Ryuu when they ask her out Wingtipping (the Ryuu equivalent of dating).</p>

<p>The Midling Dragons are having a picnic at the Bandi Desert to enjoy the blooming cactuses and the multitude of lizards, basking in the sun.  Xplotar is talking about one of his favorite subjects, &#8220;Who Has the Widest Wingspan in Ryuu Now and in the Past,&#8221; and he realizes that the other Dragons have wandered off or begun to talk amongst themselves instead of listening to him.  He begins to get frustrated and thinks about what to say.  Help him choose his words:</p>
<p>1. <span style="color: #0000ff;"> </span>“Hey, guys.  What should we talk about now?  Or do you want to fly up to the clouds for a while to cool off?”</p>

<p>Xplotar is racing giant spiders with his friends and he loses the race.  His spider, Zandilly, usually uses all 8 legs to race and usually crosses the finish line first.  Today, however, Zandilly was running on only 6 legs.  The giant spiders of Ryuu can be very cranky, and when they are feeling this way, they raise a leg and refuse to use it.  It is bad when this happens during a race!  Xplotar is angry that he lost the race and angry with Zandilly.  Should he:</p>
<p>1. Tell his spider, Zandilly, that he never wants to see him again, tell his friends that he hates racing spiders anyway, and stomp off.</p>

<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Read the story below, then choose how Xplotar<br />
should respond to evolve to the next stage<br />
of social development.</strong></h1>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-349" style="border: 2px solid black;" title="Xplotar at Bleakwood Forest" src="http://social-skills-games.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Xplotar_At_Bleakwood.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="183" /></p>
<p>Flying in the forest and in the fog is great fun for the Midling Dragons of Ryuu.  They all love fog flying.  On this day, however, the fog is really, really dense.  They can hardly see a thing.  Xplotar is flying skillfully, dodging tall trees as he sees them and avoiding birds.  Suddenly, a Youngling Dragon who is trying this activity out for the first time, flies right into Xplotar, knocking them both to the ground.  Xplotar is really angry.  What should he do?</p>
<p>1. <span style="color: #0000ff;"> </span>Xplotar should yell at the clumsy Youngling and even scare him with fire and smoke.  He should tell him that he needs to go home and never return to fog flying in the forest.  He should call him a lizard-brain.</p>
<p><a style="display:none;" id="ddetlink2056989492" href="javascript:expand(document.getElementById('ddet2056989492'))">(Click to see if Xplotar has evolved!)</a>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Every Dragon thinks about saying and doing those things when they are angry, but most learn to stop and think before they act.  Then they decide, with the help of the Light Force, <strong>Releaser</strong>, to let the anger go.  Xplotar didn’t stop and think.  Try another answer.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Click the thumbnail to see the Releaser card.</strong></p>

<p>2. <span style="color: #0000ff;"> </span>Xplotar should shake himself off, say “Yiixel” (pronounced YEEKS-el, the Dragon word for Ouch), and return to flying.  It was an annoying moment but why let it spoil an afternoon of wonderful fog flying?</p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Awesome response!  The invisible arms of <strong>Self-Calmer</strong> are clearly embracing Xplotar at this moment.  Congratulations.  <a title="You Have Evolved!" href="http://social-skills-games.com/social-skills-activities/xplotar-evolved/" target="_self">You have evolved!</a> If you want, you can <a title="Play Ryuu Again" href="http://social-skills-games.com/social-skills-activities/" target="_self">play again</a>.</span></p>

<p>3. Xplotar should make the Youngling sit on the forest floor in Time Out and recite all of the rules of fog flying, again and again.  Xplotar should plan to tell the Youngling’s parents and the Forest Keeper about the Youngling’s careless and clumsy flying.</p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Oops.  Who does Xplotar think he is?  The Boss of Bleakwood Forest?  The President of Fog Flying?  He must be under the influence of the<br />
<strong>Injustice Collector</strong>.  Try another answer.</span></p>

<p>4. <span style="color: #0000ff;"> </span>Xplotar should shake himself off and then look to see if the Youngling Dragon, who is crying a few Dragon tears and wiping moss off his face, is okay.  He should make sure that one of the older Dragons checks the Youngling out for bumps and bruises.</p>
<p><a style="display:none;" id="ddetlink2039551269" href="javascript:expand(document.getElementById('ddet2039551269'))">(Click to see if Xplotar has evolved!)</a>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">That is a kind and considerate response.  Xplotar is evolving into a good Dragon friend under the fine influence of the invisible hero, <strong>Empathy</strong>.  Congratulations.  <a title="You Have Evolved!" href="http://social-skills-games.com/social-skills-activities/xplotar-evolved/" target="_self">You have evolved!</a> If you want, you can <a title="Play Ryuu Again" href="../social-skills-activities/" target="_self">play again</a>.</span></p>
