Breath Weapon (Su): A forest dragon’s breath weapon is a cone of Acidic Webbing. Creatures caught within the cone take the damage listed (a successful Fortitude save halves the damage). In addition, creatures affected by the breath weapon that fail their initial Reflex save must make a second Reflex save or be slowed for 1 round per age category of the dragon.
Nature Sense (Ex): A forest dragon can identify plants and animals (their species and special traits) with perfect accuracy. She can whether water is safe to drink or dangerous (polluted, poisoned, or otherwise unfit for consumption).
Telepathy (Su): Forest dragons can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language.
Spider Climb (Ex): This dragon can climb on stone surfaces as though using the spider climb spell.
Other Spell-Like Abilities (Sp): At will—Polymorph Self; 3/day— Endure Elements (Self Only), suggestion, Live Oak; 1/Day Control Weather, Awaken
Skills: Forest dragons have the climb skill for free at 1 rank per Hit Die.
Caster Level: Forest dragons cast spells as a druid of the listed level.

Neutral Dragons ?

other ideas for Neutral type dragons: Wood Dragon, Iron Dragon (no not a train!), ... and of course find a conversion for the cloud and mist dragon.

or instead of making a full-fledged dragon, go the Wyvern route and give a standard HD and stat block (much much easier).

I did that for a conversion of Pern Dragons.

Thanks but I've already got other ones which I'll post asap. A few of them include- Mountain Dragon, Swamp Dragon, Sea Dragon. They're from a subrace of Dragon of Dragons Iuse in my campaign, for lack of a better name I call them Drudic Dragons as they are meant to personify nature.

I can usually create and stat a dragon type in four to six hours, drakes are easier and take roughly 1 hour. The hard part is having a good idea for a dragon. (I really should post the Uhuru Wyrm....)

The only druidic dragon I can think of is the Amber Dragon in the Monstrous Compendium Annual Volume 3 (presumably it appeared somewhere else before then).

Boz: :D, But I think the characters name was Uhura, but I did get it from there :D

First Rule of Fantasy: Stealing names and ideas is good. (How many books have you read with a character named Rand in them? I can tell you that Robert Jordan wasn't the first to use that name.)

Iron Dragons....

I believe that they have already created these puppies. There was a book called "The Draconomicon" it was alright, but did not live up to my expectations (I wanted a book full of all the statted Dragons from all monster books as well as all of the Dragon articles). For those who are having a hard time remembering it, it was the book that gave rules for cross-breeding dragon types.
