'cause I am a sucker for giving boosts or penalties based on damage type. how about eitherCold Sensitive: When hit by cold damage, loses the ability to fly until end of it's next turn (this is helpful if the PCs don't have much flight of their own but cold powers at their disposal)orMagma Skin: When hit by fire damage (after damage is resolved) the dragon gains temporary hit points equal to half the fire damage (or a flat 20 temp hp if you don't want to calculate on the fly; this temp hp would represent the fire crusting onto his skin making it a little thicker). (but hopefully the PCs won't be flinging fire at the magma creature to begin with... or, when it happens once, they won't do it again <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> )</blockquote>
