[QUOTE="HeavenShallBurn, post: 3351638, member: 39593"] [sblock]If I tried the AbeTheGnome solution to dragonriders my players would turn it into the "commit genocide on the offensive society" campaign. They've done that before when I pushed the wrong buttons. Their response to Sahuagin raiders was Sahuagin stew after all "what goes around."[/sblock] Personally I'd recommend you avoid true dragons entirely in favor of lesser dragons. Within the lesser dragons there are enough different flavors to really go to town. If necessary you can pull HD from the low end to make it work and advance them as the level of the PCs go up. Royal Air Farce-Wyverns (or possibly adjusted elemental drakes) could give an energy spitting capacity to the Wyverns using the same method as poison spitting. Royal Army-Felldrakes and Rage Drakes are probably the best choices for this as there are many varieties. At the higher end can include landwyrms as well. Royal Navy-Dragon Turtles and riders wearing necklace of adaptation or similar water breathing magic items. Great opportunity to introduce an underwater campaign with subsurface dogfighting in place of submarine warfare. [/QUOTE]
