[QUOTE="Kzach, post: 5298155, member: 56189"] I'd do something similar to what Kingreaper said although I'd make the power level of either form equal to the power level of the PC's so it wouldn't matter which form they were in, they'd all still be on a roughly equal footing. I'd also maintain restrictions on power usage. So if you used your one daily power in your human form, switching to your dragon form wouldn't give you an extra daily power. In fact, I'd link the encounter and daily powers to each forms equivalent so that if you expend one, you effectively expend the other. The primary advantage of the dragon form would be flight and I'd take advantage of that fact by making sections of the adventure which could only be completed by flying or fighting whilst flying. The primary disadvantage of the dragon form would be size and again, I'd take advantage of that by creating various situations which would require them to shift back into humanoid form to complete. Another possible thing to consider is magical items. My gut instinct is to say that magical items don't function, at all, in dragon form, but to instead give inherent bonuses that equate to having roughly the same level and amount of items they have in their humanoid forms.
