[QUOTE="Cerebral Paladin, post: 5209339, member: 3448"] The obvious answer would be to copy the end of Disney's Aladdin: The dragon wishes to be powerful enough to defeat the PCs (or words to that effect) and gets transformed into a powerful devil/some sorta fiendish templated dragon/whatever, bound to Dispater's service. The PCs are now either in a much tougher fight or outclassed and forced to grab treasure and run (perhaps the transformation is a multi-round affair so that if they will be outclassed they have a chance to deal instead of being forced into battle with a more powerful foe). Alternate route to the same basic outcome: "I wish that these people are incapable of killing me in this fight." Done! You're now an outsider who is effectively summoned to the prime plane, so killing you just sends you home to your home plane. Oh, and have a buff template and a heal effect to boot. Now there's a dramatic fight, and then (assuming the PCs still win), the dragon is banished back to the Hells, not slain. Since it's not truly slain, it can recur to fight the PCs again later in the campaign. [/QUOTE]
