[QUOTE="Archade, post: 3190793, member: 7654"] Hey all, So, my players in my heavily-warped version of SCAP travelled to the Elemental Plane of Fire, and came across an efreeti merchant willing to barter wishes. In exchange for "the whisper of his wings", one of my players wished "to be a young adult copper dragon". He's already a half-copper dragon with 12 class levels (ECL 15). So, what's the best way to handle this without being game breaking? The guy got a wish, so he should benefit in some way, but I'm not sure what isn't game-breaking, and could use some advice. a) Permanently 'alternate form' him into a Juvenile Copper Dragon (medium, same HD as him roughly), but he doesn't get many effects of the new shape, and loses many benefits of the old - seems a little mean. I could twist his wording into saying how old are you now? Young adult? Good enough - have a smaller dragon size. b) Tell him to rebuild his character as a young adult copper dragon - ECL 23ish, so he loses all 12 levels of classes, and doesn't advance for the rest of the campaign. c) Polymorph him permanently. d) Wild shape him permanently. e) Something else? As well, what would you make "the whisper of his wings"? Reduce his maneuverability? Give him a -10 to Move Silently from now on? Something else? I've got an idea of what I'd do, but I'm curious what other evil DMs out there would think of. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
