You will hardly find any natural caverns which just happen to have a small walkway over lava which crumbles under a certain weight. And once sprung this "trap" is gone forever.And this will not stop the flying, invisible rogue with energy protection from CdGing the dragon in its sleep. If the dragon just could have casted alarm....And lets not talk about teleporting adventurers.So except form some natural hazards (and imo its hard to find electricity and acid based natural hazards the dragon can't protect its lair at all.Which doesn't addresses the problem that dragons can't do much without spellcasting. But I think you haven't really understood what my concern is.Of course the dragon will have no clue that some adventurers approach as it has neither the ability the scry  on the village nor contact them otherwise except coming there personally which means flying right into the arms of the adventurers.And heaven (Abyss) forbid that the dragon wants to meddle with the local kingdoms policy. Without agents that is not possible and do you really think that those agents would be effective when they have to travel to the dragons lair each week?I never said that. You should really reread what I postedWhich doesn't really help the dragon with getting a specific magic item or travel through the land undetected. No dragon starts as great wyrm who can roam the country at will. Most dragons have to use deception to get anywhere near bigger population centers.</blockquote>
