You might want to watch that for some inspiration. Of course there is Dragonslayer the old Disney movie and Smaug from the Hobbit. Some of the "Good has Lost and Evil Reigns" settings like Midnight? might be good for inspiration as well.I don't think such a setting necessarily means that dragons wouldn't be viewed as fearsome foes. You just have to make sure that the similar CR dragons are always tough fights. Nobody is going to take a great wyrm lightly just because for 15th level characters wyrmlings are a walk over.I guess one of the question you need to decide on is how powerful the dragons are relative to the main society. Are you talking about a Reign of Fire world, where humanity has been pushed to the very margins and they are desperately striving not to be wiped out. Or Something more equal see-saw battleish. One suggestion I would have is that you make dragons non-sentient until fairly large sizes. Doesn't mean that they are stupid, they can be quite clever and nasty, but just without that ability to look at the larger picture and plot larger strategy. It could make for quite a nasty shock for the PCs, they've gotten used to dragons that are tactically vicious, but strategically unaware. Then they run into a dragon that is clearly thinking circles around them, knows all about them and has counters for their favorite tactics and strategies.</blockquote>
