Red dragons love money. The irony suddenly hit me... remember the D&D Tower of Doom arcade game? The red dragon fight was intentionally made brutally unfair thereby enticing people to continually pump quarters in. All it was missing was a real graphic of your money falling down behind the dragon onto his hoard.
Blue Dragons are known to have half-dragon kids so they can raise them as bodyguards or private soldiers. Edit: I could also see Red or Green Dragons doing it for political marriage reasons. "If you agree to serve me, you can marry my half-dragon child and your descendants will be sorcerers."
In one of my character's case, his ancestor was sent to slay a black dragon. Instead of kill her, they talked, and since both the dragon and him were unbelievably evil, they just decided to get married and have three kids. One of which was my sorcerer's horrible dad.
@@Jpteryx my sorceress is descended from a green dragon who enslaved an entire village of elves because he's a dragon. he would usually play nice and protects the land from invaders, but when someone in the village displeased him, he basically walked into town and performed heavy amounts of probably not consensual coitus with one of their maidens, often with the whole village watching, to teach them a lesson. the ones who survived the process sometimes ended up giving birth to half dragons, the rest he ate.
If it was a chromatic dragon, the most obvious answer is non-consensual sex. Let's be real folks. Those dragons are defined as being evil and aggressive. Your ancestor lost a battle, and then unspeakables happened.
I like to write white dragons as forces of nature, that they're like the wendigo spirit in North American indigenous mythology. Their very presence creates blizzards, and delays spring, and brings winter early. The winters become colder, and animals become desperate and hungry, attacking people more often. People turn to banditry or flee the lands, which means people are out in the open more, leaving them vulnerable to dragon attacks. In general, I think dragons are at their best when it isn't just that they're powerful, but they affect the lands around them. I think making them animalistic sets them up perfectly to be fucking with nature.
Green dragons actually do that. The plants and animals around them will start overgrow and become magical. Even their dead bodies will make forests bigger and lushier.
Generic Person all dragons do that. read the monster manual, they have effects that happen within 5 miles of their lair e.g green dragons cause bushes to get thicker or something i think
Bard: **seduces chromatic dragon** **seduces succbus** **seduces a goddness** DM: **pissed** You died of heart attack while you rest. Bard: I seduce Death
I don't get why DMs get so mad about this; not all monsters are adventurer-fuckers. You can just say "Despite the high-quality smoulder you give the dragon, it does not seem interested in mammals."
An easier way to remember how all the different chromatic dragons function is to remember that the are all based on 80's movie high school villain stereotypes. Red Dragons are the *Jocks:* Athletic and powerful they fight to be the alphas of any environments they happen to be in. Extremely prideful and rather hot tempered, they are usually at the top of the class totem-pole. Blue Dragons are the *Gang Leader:* Not as physically powerful as the Jock, but might still win in a fight as they fight dirty and would bring their minions along to help/be meat shields. Green Dragons are the *Gossip Queens:* They avoid direct confrontations, preferring to use rumors and slander to get their way. Likes it when people more powerful than them are tricked in to fighting one another. Rules through social influence. Black Dragons are the *Goth/Columbine kids:* They are loners that hate everyone not themselves. And sometimes each other as well. Not terribly strong, but they might explode one day, disregard all danger and usher terrible and calculated violence at everyone around them. White Dragons are that *feral kid* who eats crayons in the corner and kills small animals for fun. The fact that nor much is going on upstairs mean that he is an unpredictable agent of chaos. Might grudgingly act as a subordinate for one of the stronger dragons. Close to the bottom of the social totem-pole. But still someone who is too dangerous to bully.
Durnehviir in Skyrim is basically a combo between a Dracolich (because Necromancy) and a Shadow dragon (Because he was transformed by a realm that he can't leave for very long now)
I like how in Pathfinder they wanted one new subspecies every book, but they used the metallic and chromatic dragons in the first beastiary, so then we got the elemental dragons + the shadow dragon, the imperial dragons, and finally the dragons that I don't remember their name, but it had something to do with spacetime, as you can see, they slowly get more and more crazier
One of the interesting things I heard is that blue dragons are probably the most reasonable of the chromatic dragons, in that you can actually make a deal with them that won't turn out horrible for you, I heard them described as they want you to know they are powerful and you live because they allow it, and with that out of the way they probably won't even use that power on you.
If a black dragon made an instrument, it would be an array of keys each linked to a different torture device attacking a different creature, whose screams echo down pipes to the Dragon. Some torture examples are as such; A salt-covered Maul that when activated, slams into the crotch of a Troll and then rotates if the key is held, A valve that opens a vent to a constantly-brewing pot of well-made rabbit stew, which floats in front of the nose of a near-starved Hill giant when activated, an excruciating but nonlethal neurotoxin that drips into the open wound of a dire Worg when activated, and a dwarven father whose three daughters are shown to him, being tortured, when the key is held. I didn't know that I was that imaginative.
While a good start, instruments involving living medium are too temperamental. Sure, it's great for the first ten or so minutes, but then the acid needs to be refilled, the belts start to slip on the complicated mechanics, one of the "strings" has slipped from it's restraint, and your thundering giant has popped it's vocal chords before the the big climax of the composition, leading to an ever expanding field of dead notes on your instrument. For an instrument capable of performing a masterpiece composition of misery, The Organ is required. Constructed from the remains of countless tortured victims and vile magic, The Organ's sound grows and evolves with the experience of it's owner. One set of keys connects to a set of rib-cages of various sizes, each nested within the other, with each key summoning a spectral bow string to be drawn across a rib, via the "Bone Fiddle" spell. Skulls adorn nearly every surface of The Organ, responding to the input of another set of keys, each one replaying it's own dying scream, reliably reproduced with "Magic Mouth". Stretching from the back of the horrid instrument, several covered tracks lead up and above the rest, depositing the decapitated heads of enemies, victims, or unruly minions at the top, each one wrapped in a helmet and sorted by size. Upon depression of a foot pedal, the corresponding head is subjected to the "Heat Metal" spell, causing it to burst with a percussive pop, the now empty space automagicly filled with the next helm. A more twisted conductor may even curse his torture chambers to permanently bind the souls of those that die within them to The Organ, preventing resurrection, so that they may play the notes of pain upon their victims very souls.
@@lordopotamus9109 Firstly, I never said the victims would be technically alive, and secondly, fighting decay and resource usage is a magical task undertaken by the performer, and a sign of prestige if done perfectly. It's all part of the challenge.
Wearing traveler? Why thank you for noticing! I worked very hard on this skin blanket I made from a poor courier, worry not though, I delivered the letter for him. I'm not a monster.
Sense you mentioned Monster Hunter and turf wars, I’d imagine a blue/brass dragon turf war going like so: The two dragons square up as their roars bellow across the sand. The great blue wyrm lunges with its claw and circles back around to start is technique if attacking and retreating. The brass, utilizing its superior ground-based agility, expertly dances underneath the desert tyrant and leaps into the blue’s back. The sting of claw summon a growl from the despot, but he azure beast retaliates by slamming its back on the ground, rolling over to pin the smaller dragon, and tossing it away with its mouth after a monstrous crunch of its jaw. Then they both get up and leave the zone, because Monster Hunter.
an adventure in which a black dragon tries to destroy a human settlement while a green dragon tries to keep them alive to gain power and influence would be nice.
Fact: Dragons are hard to kill... Especially when they're not indigenous to the area like summoning a Void Dragon or running into an Elder Dragon in Monster Hunter.
@Dalton K I hear Void Dragons in D&D are like a Secret Boss since they hit harder than most other Bosses... Or it could be the Obsidian Dragon. I'm not sure.
10:26 - I think everything would die instantly if they chugged a whole bottle of mountain dew by eating it That reminds me: Would a Turtle-Dracolich just eat the empty bottle?
I'd sure like to get my hands on some of that brew that's powerful enough to instakill a dragon. Did you have to draw the pants on the dude at 2:57 by yourself?
I wonder how a nice dragon would work. I suppose it wouldn't be too far out of character, right? A dragon that cares about it's wealth might see the value of raising crops or herding animals for selling to lost, hungry adventurers. After all, adventurers tend to carry lots of money, so why not exploit their greatest weakness, the need for food, to gain fabulous wealth? Plus, people love polite customer service, a particularly silver-tongued dragon will make humans love buying from it, they'll come to them time and time again for good conversation and a well priced meal. In fact, it's not too farfetched to place a dragon as the commercial or political head of a settlement of humans or elves or somesuch, after all, capitalism is the most effective means of consolidating wealth in one place, all a dragon has to do is make sure it goes to _them._
Man, the Blue and Red parties suck. Had a silver run for the blue party, but he lost in the primaries to a blue that's only marginally better than the current red. I'm voting for the blue anyway, because I'm tired of all the fires everywhere.
I used an ancient green dragon named Vyzathalon as a recurring NPC once. He lurked in a jungle with his massive extended family of sorcerous hybrids. The party never fully trusted him, even though he was offering them some of his children as soldiers for their war. When they finally learned he kidnapped a baby unicorn just to torment its mother, they barged in to kill him. They weren't even sure if they were strong enough to do it, but that didn't matter, they were *_going to kill this dragon._* He was fun, I like playing green dragons.
Black dragons prefer gold coins from fallen kingdoms for two major reasons: First, gold is acid-proof, so they can use their breath weapon in their treasure room without fear of corroding their loot, and second because they enjoy hoarding the wealth of nations that they themselves have outlived.
Grammatic Dragons occupy the LG-LN-LE spectrum. Their main shared ideals are that they hoard things with the main goal of collecting and spreading information, as well as defying the world's chaos. Lawful Evil Grammatic Dragons are known as Prescriptivists, and see other beings as flawed and in need of "correction". They routinely kidnap members of other races and "re-educate" them to match their ideals and behaviour, and only let their captives return to their home if they agree to spread the dragon's ideology. Their hoards consist of old-fashioned, usually obsolete pieces of technology, which they insist are better than their modern counterparts and include the proper usage of in their re-education. Prescriptivists are stone-gray, with dull scales that allow them to blend in with rocky mountains and caves. Their breath petrifies the afflicted, much like the gaze of a basilisk or medusa. The resulting statue is then either eaten or kept as a decorative statue. Lawful Neutral Grammatic Dragons are known as Descriptivists, and see other beings as strange and curious things to be studied and understood. Descriptivists treasure knowledge for its own sake, and collect informational items and artworks, such as scrolls, books, and paintings. Descriptivists understand that their hoard is not their physical items, but the ideas conveyed by them, and so will be content to part with any of it on the condition that they're provided an identical copy. Otherwise, the thief will simply not be allowed to leave until memorizing the wanted information or giving up. The color of a Descriptivist is unknown, as their scales are polished to a mirror sheen, reflecting their surroundings and making their silhouette nearly impossible to make out. Their breath rapidly deposits crystalline minerals, sealing away exits, and on direct contact, encasing the target in a thick clear gem. Lawful Good Grammatic Dragons are known as Progressivists, and see other beings as valuable sources of order and progress that need to be protected from the world's inclination towards entropy. Progressivists seek out and "claim" a civilized settlement as their "hoard", thinking of each citizen as a small treasure to be protected against threats like invasions and natural disasters. Progressivists understand that broadening one's horizons is a good way to further spread ideas, as well as learn new ones, so they allow their treasures to leave their hoard under predetermined sets of conditions, such as returning for frequent visits, writing letters, and traveling with someone that will keep them safe. Progressivists are a wide range of freckled colors, as their scales are opalescent and refract light like prisms. Their breath lays down a thin frost of sharp crystal shards, either onto their treasures as protective armor or onto the ground as area-denial caltrops.

Just trying to figure out why you highlighted those three classes as good against dragons. Monks have evasion and stunning strike - good to ignore attacks and to immobilise foes. Barbarians have resistance to some damages and high grapple scores - good to ignore attacks and immobilise foes. Druids have wildshape and grapple spells such as entangle - good to ignore attacks and immobilise foes. Hmm...
In an ebberon campainge we ran there was a recurring quest where we had to bring a red dragon newspapers from various cities. He was always in some annoying to get to spot as well. I can never fight another red dragon without offering him the daily news.
In my first campaign of D&D 3.5, we were tasked by the guild to convince a particularly strong druid circle to not raze a city to the ground for its rulers' destruction of nature. The circle was indifferent to everything except the preservation of their domain. About 2 sessions or so before finishing the campaign, after surviving a kraken fight on a ship destined for a village close to the forest, getting ambushed and barely surviving a bunch of redcaps, getting tricked by some fey in a cave to a riddle fight and receiving a cursed ring as a reward that turned any non-fey originating race to a tree (luckily I was a half-elf, so only something treant-like), and ingesting hallucinogenic shrooms with a bunch of anthropomorphic druids, our druid rolled a 1 on his d100 for the random encounter. Out comes this ancient green dragon. It was my first ever game so I knew fuck-all; I thought we'd get TPK'd. Our DM was very experienced so I trusted him not to do that. Instead, after asking us about our mission, the dragon proceeds to use some spells to convince half the party to kill the druid circle we were meant to convince (or you know, attempt to and die horribly in the process). Sadly I wasn't there for the last session and I couldn't witness the outcome :(
I have an ancient black dragon in my campaign who’s lived a long life, seen much war and after fell in love with a dryad and helped her raise her children after her first partner left. (He even has a daughter of his own now who I plan to send party on quest to find later) He’s an interesting character who freaked out party at first appearance, all he did was offer them food. 🤣
I'm so excited, I'm making a huge dragon based campaign about a gnome who belive dragons are the superior race, and so they're gonna have all kinds of dragon based bosses. Thanks so much for making this
The problem of dracoliches is that the power they get from the transformation is not as good as what they could have got if they remained alive, unlike humanoids dragons get more powerful with age. Even more, advance dragons can take a prestige class that transform them into cuasigods, gaining inmortality.
The monster manual does have a template of sorts for converting a dragon to a Dragon, Shadow, but nothing too in depth. Shadowfell 100% deserves a campaign, as it has some of the coolest monsters. Easily my second favorite plain after Mechanus.
So according to the monster manual in 5e, red dragons can tell the monetary worth of something at a moments glance. So when I got to control one as a pc, I made it a joke where if you break something expensive in front of him, he dies inside watching all the money he just found out it was worth go to waste.
Honestly a lotta blue Dragon's skirt the line between Lawful Evil and Lawful Neutral. Like, Blue Dragons that establish kingdoms as thunder tyrants and take pride in their people's wellbeing and prosperity under their rule is such a fun dynamic to play with in a game. In my settings, outside of chromatic dragons that were raised by non-dragons or chromatic dragons that through exceptional circumstances developed friendships with good beings, Blue Dragons are the only ones that can eventually slip in to Lawful Good on their own due to developing attachments to their subjects and eventually (over a thousand or so years) empathy and sympathy. I have a Blue Dragon paladin that has a giant set of magical armor and a greatsword they fight with, that rules over a mighty kingdom and draws their paladin powers from their conviction to protect their people.
Narcissistic god emperor using his army of slaves to run a puppet empire, several layers of government that appear to run as a normal government but is in all actuality just a bunch of slaves in gilded cages. An ancient red could be the mysterious god emperor that is never seen or could even show themselves as avatars in human form, for each successor to the throne they are taken back to a ceremonial chamber where they are gifted their "god powers" and officially take the throne, except really they are just becoming a light snack and the basis for the next 80 yrs of polymorph or seeming.
@@Drekromancer I'm not gunna lie to you man, this premise is about 75% plagiarized from the 3rd book in the dragonlord series. Except in that series it's also a matriarchy worshipping an enslaved feral Phoenix that's pumping magic through a tortured dragon into the actual dragon who's running the show. It gets real weird.
@person person sort of, mostly just the entire government is fluff, pure pomp and circumstance with no substance. At the end of the day every decision is the will of the dragon and theirs alone. Every single person in government being a "royal" raised in the palace completely unaware of the mental influence of the dragon. If the empire is old enough hearing voices in your head commanding you towards certain actions would just be the will of the god emperor and proof you were blessed. Especially if you knew nothing else. Hell even the gifted mages would know no better given enough time and subtle influence.

That actually is why the azure rathalos flies so often. The rathalos is much easier to fight because of it's tendency to land on the ground often and do tail attacks, bites and fire breath. But the Azure Rathalos' tactic is to rarely touch the ground and do constant flying-tail attacks and fireballs. It's all linked to Blue dragons in DnD
Those two sound really silly. Not gonna lie. But then again, dragons are ripe for "just gonna add one more type" designs anyway. I guess all the minutia of dnd gets pretty silly overall :).

An easier way to remember how all the different chromatic dragons function is to remember that the are all based on 80's movie high school villain stereotypes.
Red Dragons are the *Jocks:* Athletic and powerful they fight to be the alphas of any environments they happen to be in. Extremely prideful and rather hot tempered, they are usually at the top of the class totem-pole.
Blue Dragons are the *Gang Leader:* Not as physically powerful as the Jock, but might still win in a fight as they fight dirty and would bring their minions along to help/be meat shields.
Green Dragons are the *Gossip Queens:* They avoid direct confrontations, preferring to use rumors and slander to get their way. Likes it when people more powerful than them are tricked in to fighting one another. Rules through social influence.
Black Dragons are the *Goth/Columbine kids:* They are loners that hate everyone not themselves. And sometimes each other as well. Not terribly strong, but they might explode one day, disregard all danger and usher terrible and calculated violence at everyone around them.
White Dragons are that *feral kid* who eats crayons in the corner and kills small animals for fun. The fact that nor much is going on upstairs mean that he is an unpredictable agent of chaos. Might grudgingly act as a subordinate for one of the stronger dragons. Close to the bottom of the social totem-pole. But still someone who is too dangerous to bully.
Holy fuck this is amazing
huh, never thought of it that way
@shcrodinger's Lion i see your point. maybe a change to "emo" would work
okay so what i'm hearing is an 80's high school film parody where all the characters are full, un-polymorphed dragons
You went to an interesting school.
Durnehviir in Skyrim is basically a combo between a Dracolich (because Necromancy) and a Shadow dragon (Because he was transformed by a realm that he can't leave for very long now)
"The obsisian dragon is from the expansion with psionics"
...Kalameet, is that you?
Kalameet is better, and existed BEFORE the idea of obisodan dragons, and isn't as poorly written edgelord op like d&d obsidian dragons.
I like how in Pathfinder they wanted one new subspecies every book, but they used the metallic and chromatic dragons in the first beastiary, so then we got the elemental dragons + the shadow dragon, the imperial dragons, and finally the dragons that I don't remember their name, but it had something to do with spacetime, as you can see, they slowly get more and more crazier
Btw, I'm only talking about true dragons

the adventurers ganging up on the green dragon caught me offguard
One of the interesting things I heard is that blue dragons are probably the most reasonable of the chromatic dragons, in that you can actually make a deal with them that won't turn out horrible for you, I heard them described as they want you to know they are powerful and you live because they allow it, and with that out of the way they probably won't even use that power on you.
If a black dragon made an instrument, it would be an array of keys each linked to a different torture device attacking a different creature, whose screams echo down pipes to the Dragon. Some torture examples are as such; A salt-covered Maul that when activated, slams into the crotch of a Troll and then rotates if the key is held, A valve that opens a vent to a constantly-brewing pot of well-made rabbit stew, which floats in front of the nose of a near-starved Hill giant when activated, an excruciating but nonlethal neurotoxin that drips into the open wound of a dire Worg when activated, and a dwarven father whose three daughters are shown to him, being tortured, when the key is held.
I didn't know that I was that imaginative.
While a good start, instruments involving living medium are too temperamental. Sure, it's great for the first ten or so minutes, but then the acid needs to be refilled, the belts start to slip on the complicated mechanics, one of the "strings" has slipped from it's restraint, and your thundering giant has popped it's vocal chords before the the big climax of the composition, leading to an ever expanding field of dead notes on your instrument. For an instrument capable of performing a masterpiece composition of misery, The Organ is required.
Constructed from the remains of countless tortured victims and vile magic, The Organ's sound grows and evolves with the experience of it's owner. One set of keys connects to a set of rib-cages of various sizes, each nested within the other, with each key summoning a spectral bow string to be drawn across a rib, via the "Bone Fiddle" spell. Skulls adorn nearly every surface of The Organ, responding to the input of another set of keys, each one replaying it's own dying scream, reliably reproduced with "Magic Mouth". Stretching from the back of the horrid instrument, several covered tracks lead up and above the rest, depositing the decapitated heads of enemies, victims, or unruly minions at the top, each one wrapped in a helmet and sorted by size. Upon depression of a foot pedal, the corresponding head is subjected to the "Heat Metal" spell, causing it to burst with a percussive pop, the now empty space automagicly filled with the next helm. A more twisted conductor may even curse his torture chambers to permanently bind the souls of those that die within them to The Organ, preventing resurrection, so that they may play the notes of pain upon their victims very souls.
@@lordopotamus9109 Firstly, I never said the victims would be technically alive, and secondly, fighting decay and resource usage is a magical task undertaken by the performer, and a sign of prestige if done perfectly. It's all part of the challenge.
This feels like a first draft and then the completed version. Going to tramitise my players with this one day.

“Arrogant, with flying colours.”This video is literally about flying colours.
Sense you mentioned Monster Hunter and turf wars, I’d imagine a blue/brass dragon turf war going like so:
The two dragons square up as their roars bellow across the sand. The great blue wyrm lunges with its claw and circles back around to start is technique if attacking and retreating. The brass, utilizing its superior ground-based agility, expertly dances underneath the desert tyrant and leaps into the blue’s back. The sting of claw summon a growl from the despot, but he azure beast retaliates by slamming its back on the ground, rolling over to pin the smaller dragon, and tossing it away with its mouth after a monstrous crunch of its jaw.
Then they both get up and leave the zone, because Monster Hunter.
an adventure in which a black dragon tries to destroy a human settlement while a green dragon tries to keep them alive to gain power and influence would be nice.
It's funny, because Stephen King IS a Shining author!
Oh that was clever. 👍

Fact : Dragons are epic
Fact: Dragons are hard to kill... Especially when they're not indigenous to the area like summoning a Void Dragon or running into an Elder Dragon in Monster Hunter.
@Dalton K
I hear Void Dragons in D&D are like a Secret Boss since they hit harder than most other Bosses... Or it could be the Obsidian Dragon. I'm not sure.

@@benthomason3307 oh, that took me a second to get the joke tbh.
Politicians are bootleg dragons
I wonder how a nice dragon would work.
I suppose it wouldn't be too far out of character, right?
A dragon that cares about it's wealth might see the value of raising crops or herding animals for selling to lost, hungry adventurers.
After all, adventurers tend to carry lots of money, so why not exploit their greatest weakness, the need for food, to gain fabulous wealth?
Plus, people love polite customer service, a particularly silver-tongued dragon will make humans love buying from it, they'll come to them time and time again for good conversation and a well priced meal.
In fact, it's not too farfetched to place a dragon as the commercial or political head of a settlement of humans or elves or somesuch, after all, capitalism is the most effective means of consolidating wealth in one place, all a dragon has to do is make sure it goes to _them._
Man, the Blue and Red parties suck. Had a silver run for the blue party, but he lost in the primaries to a blue that's only marginally better than the current red. I'm voting for the blue anyway, because I'm tired of all the fires everywhere.
I used an ancient green dragon named Vyzathalon as a recurring NPC once. He lurked in a jungle with his massive extended family of sorcerous hybrids. The party never fully trusted him, even though he was offering them some of his children as soldiers for their war. When they finally learned he kidnapped a baby unicorn just to torment its mother, they barged in to kill him. They weren't even sure if they were strong enough to do it, but that didn't matter, they were *_going to kill this dragon._* He was fun, I like playing green dragons.
Fun fact... Our adventuring party kited a blue dragon successfully. It is probably still mad as hell.
Black dragons prefer gold coins from fallen kingdoms for two major reasons: First, gold is acid-proof, so they can use their breath weapon in their treasure room without fear of corroding their loot, and second because they enjoy hoarding the wealth of nations that they themselves have outlived.
We killed a Young Red Dragon in our campaign. I'm playing a necromancer.. I now have a bloody skeletal Dragon that I can magic jar into and control...

@@absolstoryoffiction6615 Poontang.
Yep.
When you first said chromatic... I thought it was grammatic.
Those grammatic dragons are mad oof.
Grammatic Dragons occupy the LG-LN-LE spectrum. Their main shared ideals are that they hoard things with the main goal of collecting and spreading information, as well as defying the world's chaos.
Lawful Evil Grammatic Dragons are known as Prescriptivists, and see other beings as flawed and in need of "correction". They routinely kidnap members of other races and "re-educate" them to match their ideals and behaviour, and only let their captives return to their home if they agree to spread the dragon's ideology. Their hoards consist of old-fashioned, usually obsolete pieces of technology, which they insist are better than their modern counterparts and include the proper usage of in their re-education. Prescriptivists are stone-gray, with dull scales that allow them to blend in with rocky mountains and caves. Their breath petrifies the afflicted, much like the gaze of a basilisk or medusa. The resulting statue is then either eaten or kept as a decorative statue.
Lawful Neutral Grammatic Dragons are known as Descriptivists, and see other beings as strange and curious things to be studied and understood. Descriptivists treasure knowledge for its own sake, and collect informational items and artworks, such as scrolls, books, and paintings. Descriptivists understand that their hoard is not their physical items, but the ideas conveyed by them, and so will be content to part with any of it on the condition that they're provided an identical copy. Otherwise, the thief will simply not be allowed to leave until memorizing the wanted information or giving up. The color of a Descriptivist is unknown, as their scales are polished to a mirror sheen, reflecting their surroundings and making their silhouette nearly impossible to make out. Their breath rapidly deposits crystalline minerals, sealing away exits, and on direct contact, encasing the target in a thick clear gem.
Lawful Good Grammatic Dragons are known as Progressivists, and see other beings as valuable sources of order and progress that need to be protected from the world's inclination towards entropy. Progressivists seek out and "claim" a civilized settlement as their "hoard", thinking of each citizen as a small treasure to be protected against threats like invasions and natural disasters. Progressivists understand that broadening one's horizons is a good way to further spread ideas, as well as learn new ones, so they allow their treasures to leave their hoard under predetermined sets of conditions, such as returning for frequent visits, writing letters, and traveling with someone that will keep them safe. Progressivists are a wide range of freckled colors, as their scales are opalescent and refract light like prisms. Their breath lays down a thin frost of sharp crystal shards, either onto their treasures as protective armor or onto the ground as area-denial caltrops.
So my kleptomaniac rogue kinda stole a baby red dragon and is trying to keep it as a pet. The red dragon is also the king of a dugar city...

Barbarians have resistance to some damages and high grapple scores - good to ignore attacks and immobilise foes.
Druids have wildshape and grapple spells such as entangle - good to ignore attacks and immobilise foes.

In my first campaign of D&D 3.5, we were tasked by the guild to convince a particularly strong druid circle to not raze a city to the ground for its rulers' destruction of nature. The circle was indifferent to everything except the preservation of their domain.
About 2 sessions or so before finishing the campaign, after surviving a kraken fight on a ship destined for a village close to the forest, getting ambushed and barely surviving a bunch of redcaps, getting tricked by some fey in a cave to a riddle fight and receiving a cursed ring as a reward that turned any non-fey originating race to a tree (luckily I was a half-elf, so only something treant-like), and ingesting hallucinogenic shrooms with a bunch of anthropomorphic druids, our druid rolled a 1 on his d100 for the random encounter.
Out comes this ancient green dragon. It was my first ever game so I knew fuck-all; I thought we'd get TPK'd. Our DM was very experienced so I trusted him not to do that. Instead, after asking us about our mission, the dragon proceeds to use some spells to convince half the party to kill the druid circle we were meant to convince (or you know, attempt to and die horribly in the process). Sadly I wasn't there for the last session and I couldn't witness the outcome :(
I'm just down here to savor the brilliance of "Multi-Mom".

The problem of dracoliches is that the power they get from the transformation is not as good as what they could have got if they remained alive, unlike humanoids dragons get more powerful with age. Even more, advance dragons can take a prestige class that transform them into cuasigods, gaining inmortality.
The monster manual does have a template of sorts for converting a dragon to a Dragon, Shadow, but nothing too in depth. Shadowfell 100% deserves a campaign, as it has some of the coolest monsters. Easily my second favorite plain after Mechanus.
So according to the monster manual in 5e, red dragons can tell the monetary worth of something at a moments glance. So when I got to control one as a pc, I made it a joke where if you break something expensive in front of him, he dies inside watching all the money he just found out it was worth go to waste.

Blue dragons are the only chromatic dragons that actually value family and I love that
RUclips, the true red dragon of the internet
Honestly a lotta blue Dragon's skirt the line between Lawful Evil and Lawful Neutral. Like, Blue Dragons that establish kingdoms as thunder tyrants and take pride in their people's wellbeing and prosperity under their rule is such a fun dynamic to play with in a game. In my settings, outside of chromatic dragons that were raised by non-dragons or chromatic dragons that through exceptional circumstances developed friendships with good beings, Blue Dragons are the only ones that can eventually slip in to Lawful Good on their own due to developing attachments to their subjects and eventually (over a thousand or so years) empathy and sympathy. I have a Blue Dragon paladin that has a giant set of magical armor and a greatsword they fight with, that rules over a mighty kingdom and draws their paladin powers from their conviction to protect their people.
I too have problems tiring on the lights
Great video, the Dracolich section had me dying, also hearing the Darkeater Midir theme gave me PTSD

I find them the hardest to make long term villain.
Narcissistic god emperor using his army of slaves to run a puppet empire, several layers of government that appear to run as a normal government but is in all actuality just a bunch of slaves in gilded cages. An ancient red could be the mysterious god emperor that is never seen or could even show themselves as avatars in human form, for each successor to the throne they are taken back to a ceremonial chamber where they are gifted their "god powers" and officially take the throne, except really they are just becoming a light snack and the basis for the next 80 yrs of polymorph or seeming.
@@kawbmxful Brilliant. This has so many layers.
@@Drekromancer I'm not gunna lie to you man, this premise is about 75% plagiarized from the 3rd book in the dragonlord series. Except in that series it's also a matriarchy worshipping an enslaved feral Phoenix that's pumping magic through a tortured dragon into the actual dragon who's running the show. It gets real weird.
@person person sort of, mostly just the entire government is fluff, pure pomp and circumstance with no substance. At the end of the day every decision is the will of the dragon and theirs alone. Every single person in government being a "royal" raised in the palace completely unaware of the mental influence of the dragon. If the empire is old enough hearing voices in your head commanding you towards certain actions would just be the will of the god emperor and proof you were blessed. Especially if you knew nothing else. Hell even the gifted mages would know no better given enough time and subtle influence.
@person person lmao nah, but feel free to chuck that at whatever political party rustles your jimmies the most. Given enough free time you could make an argument for all of em.

That actually is why the azure rathalos flies so often. The rathalos is much easier to fight because of it's tendency to land on the ground often and do tail attacks, bites and fire breath. But the Azure Rathalos' tactic is to rarely touch the ground and do constant flying-tail attacks and fireballs. It's all linked to Blue dragons in DnD
