Ended up becoming the actual thing that was prophesied about. I generally set my dragon spells based on the story, dragons are a big thing that I place at key moments in a campaign however I also have a dragon variant I have used as a BBEG.Īncient Silver Dragon who was obsessed with gaining knowledge to try and stop an end of the world prophecy they used found. (Edit II: added the metallic dragons because why not?)

(Edit: corrected the red dragon spell levels) When that happens, the dragon often responds in kind, treating a bout of mutual trickery as a game.' 'A brass dragon is trusting of creatures that appear to enjoy conversation as much as it does, but is smart enough to know when it is being manipulated. A copper dragon becomes annoyed with any creature that doesn’t laugh at its jokes or accept its tricks with good humor.'Īdult Brass Dragon - three 4th level or lower spell 'A copper dragon appreciates wit, a good joke, humorous story, or riddle. Once a bronze dragon commits to a cause, it remains a staunch ally.'Īdult Copper Dragon - three 4th level or lower spells When a conflict unfolds near its lair, a bronze dragon ascertains the underlying cause, then offers its services to any side that fights for good. 'Bronze dragons actively oppose tyranny, and many bronze dragons yearn to test their mettle by putting their size and strength to good use. They don’t take it upon themselves to root out evil, as gold and bronze dragons do, but they will gladly oppose creatures that dare to commit evil acts or harm the innocent.'Īdult Bronze Dragon - four 5th level or lower spells 'Silver dragons believe that living a moral life involves doing good deeds and ensuring that one’s actions cause no undeserved harm to other sentient beings. In the guise of an animal, the dragon might befriend a lost child, a wandering minstrel, or an innkeeper, serving as a companion for days or weeks on end.'Īdult Silver Dragon - five 5th level or lower spells In the guise of a peddler, it might regularly visit a town to catch up on local gossip, patronize honest businesses, and lend a helping hand in unseen ways.

Rarely does a gold dragon in disguise reveal its true form.

'Older gold dragons can assume animal and humanoid forms. However, their bestial nature makes them the best hunters among all dragonkind, singularly focused on surviving and slaughtering their enemies.'Īdult Gold Dragon - Seven 5th level or lower spells 'White dragons lack the cunning and tactics of most other dragons. A black dragon lives to watch its prey beg for mercy, and will often offer the illusion of respite or escape before finishing off its enemies.'īlindness/Deafness (cast at 4th level) 2/dayĪdult White Dragon - one 4th level or lower spell 'All chromatic dragons are evil, but black dragons stand apart for their sadistic nature. Any creature foolish enough to attempt to subdue a green dragon eventually realizes that the creature is only pretending to serve while it assesses its would-be master.'Īdult Black Dragon - three 4th level or lower spells 'A wily and subtle creature, a green dragon bends other creatures to its will by assessing and playing off their deepest desires. Bards, sages, artists, wizards, and assassins can become valuable agents for a blue dragon, which rewards loyal service handsomely.'Īnimal Friendship (cast at 5th level) 1/dayĪdult Green Dragon - three 5th level or lower spells 'Blue dragons covet valuable and talented creatures whose service reinforces their sense of superiority. They are so ferocious and vengeful that they are regarded as the archetypical evil dragon by many cultures.'Īdult Blue Dragon - four 5th level or lower spells 'Red dragons fly into destructive rages and act on impulse when angered.

I thought I would post and see if anyone else has done something similar or has any suggestions to what I came up with.Īdult Red Dragon - five 5th level or lower spells With that in mind I created a handful of default spells for the adult chromatic dragons. I wonder if its because folks just prefer to stack a caster class on their dragons or if it is just too much work to mess with.
