Knight: Female. You: True Hermaphrodite.

Dragons, because of **** evolutionary pressures, are neither male or female, but all both male and female as required for mating.

The knight, as it turns out when you carefully pry at her acid damaged tunic to check, is female, just very mannish looking and sounding. You're no judge of human beauty standards, but you're confident she's not a huge hit with their menfolk.

That said, androgynous is the epitome of beauty among dragons, as it indicates well-balanced metabolism for mating in either male or female role, so for you, this knight is getting you all-hot-and-bothered...

You carry her back into the castle and call out to your kobold servants.

"High Priest Slerglak, attend me!" You demand, and your chief priest of IO, high God of Dragonkind, comes running out of his quarters.

"This Knight will be our 'guest' while she recuperates, have some of the others run out on the path and collect her gear, I'm confident some of it is enchanted and I'm adding it to my hoard until she can pay to buy it back. She is to be given our best medical care, and I will hold you personally responsible if she dies. She may give her oath of parole when she recovers from the paralysis, but is to be attended by two guards at all times. Lastly, for now, if she is sexually importuned by anyone but me while in our charge I will make their skin into gloves. Is all that understood?" You demand, and Slerglak nods.

"It will be as you say Great One," he acknowledges, and you leave the knight in his care.
