A man must hearken not the words of a dragon.
A man must lay his hands not upon the flesh nor blood of a dragon.
The archbishop, his Holiness, declares thus, and thus is it law.
Ishgardians believe that a dragon may temper a man in any of the above ways. Eye contact, vocalization, or physical contact with a living dragon. The distinction should be made that you can touch a deceased dragon, just not a living one. The skins/scales of murdered dragons often get used in armor, hand wraps, or prayer scrolls to enhance one's fervor when praying to Halone.
Now, whether or not a dragon can actually temper you by looking at it? We can't say for sure, as there's no solid evidence of it having ever happened. If you confess to any of these things happening to you, you are branded a heretic.
This is what I was looking for, thank you. I thought I was just missing something but the answer really is that it isn't shown (and thank you for the reminder as well that it may not actually be a thing).
