[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 5194652, member: 57383"] Yes, these look like no-subtype dragons. These live in the water to, so I was thinking more: [B]Environment:[/B] Any coastal aquatic or coasts and islands [B]Treasure:[/B] Triple standard (all gems are pearls) ? Well that suggests their CR should be somewhere in between, maybe the average of a White Dragon (for the weak physicality) and a Silver Dragon (for the powerful spelluse)? [B]White Dragon:[/B] Wyrmling 2; very young 3; young 4; juvenile 6; young adult 8; adult 10; mature adult 12; old 15; very old 17; ancient 18; wyrm 19; great wyrm 21 [B]Silver Dragon:[/B] Wyrmling 4; very young 5; young 7; juvenile 10; young adult 13; adult 15; mature adult 18; old 20; very old 21; ancient 23; wyrm 24; great wyrm 26 Averaging them would work out: [COLOR=Cyan][B]Pearl Dragon:[/B][/COLOR] Wyrmling 3; very young 4; young [COLOR=Red][B]5-6[/B][/COLOR]; juvenile 8; young adult [COLOR=Red][B]10-11[/B][/COLOR]; adult [COLOR=Red][B]12-13[/B][/COLOR]; mature adult 15; old [COLOR=Red][B]17-18[/B][/COLOR]; very old 19; ancient [COLOR=Red][B]20-21[/B][/COLOR]; wyrm 21-22; great wyrm [B][COLOR=Red]23-24[/COLOR][/B] Hmm, if we use that at a baseline and add a minimum CR of caster level +6 that might be better. It'd give us: [COLOR=Cyan][B]Pearl Dragon:[/B][/COLOR] Wyrmling 3; very young 4; young 6; juvenile 8; young adult 10; adult 12; mature adult 15; old 17; very old 19; ancient 21; wyrm 23; great wyrm 25 That looks about right, it gives it the biggest jumps in CR at Young (when it first gains spellcasting) and adult (when it becomes Large).
