[QUOTE="Chorn, post: 2207003, member: 11849"] The human form stat looks about right. I do have a few things I'm not sure about though. I am not certain it would retain its breath weapon in human form. While it does have a mouth for it, and it is a supernatural ability, it could be argued that it's more of a physical kind of supernatural ability that a human would not have the physiology to produce. The same might be said of the dragon's damage reduction being tied to the creature's impenetrable hide. Either way, those are things that you can go either way and still be correct IMHO. Keep them if you think it might make the dragon too easy to defeat, but ditch them if it causes problem with encounter difficulty. There is one more thing that may or may not be correct which I really don't want to touch. The number of hit points is of calculated correctly, but you list it as having "1 HD for various rules purposes". There was a recent thread where there was disagreement on whether your number of hit dice change for certain effects based on such when you are polymorphed. You may want to review the arguments within since it can lead to strange situations. Personally, I am of the opinion that it retains its 28 HD for all effects all the time. [/QUOTE]
