Converting True Dragons

[Shade]

I'll go with Adult.

Other than the italicized description, how's it looking in Homebrews now?

Didn't go through the table carefully, but it looks pretty good. Two typos:

Said "at well" instead of "at will" in the Dream description.

Kept all the text about 6d6 damage to various creature types for the vulnerability to the sunburst spell.

I fixed those and cleaned up some of the other text.

Looking pretty good...

Added italicized description. Does it look complete?

Unless I've missed something its missing caster levels and we still have that errant comma in the wyrmling movement entry

And that's why I don't just assume we're done on my own.

The errant comma is now (finally) removed.

For spellcasting, comparing to other 2e dragons, it achieves the same wizard spellcasting as a silver, but eclipses the other dragons with priest spellcasting. In fact, it begins gaining priest spells at wyrmling, whereas the silver doesn't gain spells until young adult.

Combat: If force to fight, the dragon uses enchantment/charm and illusion spells, alteration spells of dim light and shadow, and spells of dreams and dreaming. Their priest spell spheres are all, healing, necromancy (good only) and divination.

For their spells, the original entry mentions they can cast healing spells, so access to the Healing domain seems obvious. It also specifies divination as a specialty, so maybe the Knowledge domain as well?

For simplicity, why don't we give it the spellcasting progression of the gold (which tops out at CL19 like silver but starts earlier) and let it cast cleric and Healing & Knowledge domain spells as arcane spells?

That sounds doable. Any objections?

Not by me.
