[QUOTE="Jfdlsjfd, post: 7941099, member: 42856"] After giving it some thoughts, you could probably go for any dragon, regardless of CR. The metallic dragons's Change Shape ability is their doom. Step 1. Using your Wish-granting simulacrum chain, let a few of them wish for a scale of the nearest Ancient Gold Dragon until the Wish can be worded to give adequate results. Step 2. Teleport a full simulacra-hit-squad next to him. Step 3. Make them cast Dominate Monster until it sticks, preferentially after Bestowing Curse on his WIS characteristics. Thankfully, at +10, Wisdom is a rather weak save for an AGD. The worst part is that it can ignore 3 failed rolls in a row... Step 4. Have the simulacrum ask your new scaly friend to Change Shape into an Humanoid of his choice. He can select any Humanoid up to CR 24, but make him select a CR 0 Commoner. Step 5. Teleport in, after your simulacra squad sent you the all clear. Step 6. Cast Magic Jar, and make your soul enter the jar. Step 7. Exit the Jar, and possess the nearest Commoner you see. Since the AGD has shapechanged to an humanoid, he [I]is[/I] an humanoid. Type isn't a game statistics your retain when shapechanging. Manage to beat the +10 WIS save throw dragon-peasant standing in front of you. If needed, have your simulacra spend their Wishes to make him reroll: you probably won't be able to wait 24 hours to retry. Step 8: place your container in an aptly prepared Demiplane and forget it there forever with your body. You can't afford to have the jar stay less than 100 feet of you (an obvious weakness) so it's probably actually better to risk death by being unable to regain your original body. Restart your simulacra-popping chain from your Peasantform, since magic jar lets you retain all your class features and mental stats but get all the game statistics of the possessed form, except Class Feature, of which fortunately, the AGD have none. Enjoy your 546 HP, your 13d10 breath weapon, and your thrice-a-day Legendary Resistance. Ask your DM about any Lair Actions you may have in case he hasn't thrown his dice bag at you in disgust at this point. [/QUOTE]
