As well as the fire resistance 15, should we also give them a bonus to their reflex saves against fire?AC9 said:
I know that as a dragon type they get immunity to sleep and paralysis, but I would be quite happy giving them a special ability (penalty) that negates that immunity. Thoughts?

Why?

I assume you're asking about the second suggestion/query, but I'll answer for both.
a. because they always make their save.
b. because it's something the original didn't have and I don't see why the conversion should have it (other than it is a feature of the dragon type).
I do expect to lose on suggestion b though.
I guess, for my campaign I'll just strip them of it (and darkvision)

True dragons didn't have immunity to sleep and paralysis in previous editions either. I'm not a fan of exception-based design, so no.

I'd rather make them Magical Beasts like a Dragonne than let them have immunity to sleep and paralysis.

And I'd rather keep 'em dragons and let 'em have it. It works for wyverns.
Oh, if it means so much to you I'll let you have this one.

If you like, it doesn't make much difference to me.
