Web serial by Nolifeneeded
A powerless man, thrown about by a world he had no say in and unable to change his circumstances, is reborn as a newborn dragon with the potential to finally be truly free. Escaped from the grasp of higher powers and not keen to be another cog in the machine, he uses his cumulative knowledge and new talents to survive and carve his own path. Misfortune still follows him, however. Higher beings are keen on interfering with his existence, his own instincts and impulses as a dragon contradict his human mind, and old problems he thought he had left behind come back to haunt him. This is a story of exploring identity, the self, and the world — with a complex magic system and an unhinged, scientific approach to studying it.
