[QUOTE="Kaisoku, post: 5474516, member: 58447"] A young dragon is CR 7. The figuring of wondrous power of a Marble Elephant creates a CR 7 elephant as a mount, beast of burden or combatant (ie, used as if it were a real elephant), for 4x per month, up to 24 hours each time. This costs 17,000gp. The twin lions (16,500gp) create a CR 5 encounter (two cr 3 lions), up to 1 hour per day, although if one dies they can't be called for a week. I'd say that if you were doing a wyrmling, it'd be priced similar to the Elephant, and useable more like the lions as it's primarily a combatant (1 hour per day, week downtime if killed). If the thing doubles as a weapon (since it'd be a rod), then I'd just tack on the price of the enchanted weapon as well. A +1 heavy mace would be 2,312gp. No increases in cost, since you can't use the +1 heavy mace at the same time as it's a dragon. Because it's a dragon, and not an elephant, I'd probably tack on an extra 5,000gp because it can fly and has a breath weapon (more options in combat than the elephant). That and the lions were two CR 3 at the elephant price, so probably a jump in pricing is appropriate. Since it's normally a statuette, and you probably don't want it to be intelligent, you could probably stat it up once, and just change the breath weapon to whatever dragon the rod is supposed to be attuned to. So something around 24,312gp... or 25k if you want to round up. [/QUOTE]
