Golds, silvers and bronzes eventually gain the ability to assume alternate forms and so can pass as humanoids and animals, but those only kick in at higher levels; 4th at the earliest IIRC. There are some classes' special abilities that could also disguise a dragon, but again those would only kick in at later levels.Another disguise option would be to use a magic item. A hat of disguise could probably change the appearance of a quadruped dragon (with its wings folded tightly along its back) sufficiently for it to pass as a cat if tiny-sized, a dog if small-sized or a riding dog if medium-sized. Naturally PCs don't normally start with such expensive items (a hat of disguise costs 1,800 gp), but it could be on loan; perhaps from a distant parent's hoard or a from a friendly and helpful religious or arcane institution in the vicinity. The hat's cost could be later reimbursed with the proceeds from adventuring.Aside from that, the only suggestion I could offer to salvage the concept would be to try a stealth approach. That could be accomplished either through endeavoring to keep out of sight of the populace at large or by instilling false assumptions in the same. The former approach would likely involve playing a very small dragon (like a tiny-sized copper) and by hiding most of time; perhaps by nesting in another PC's backpack when out and about. The latter approach could be accomplished by trying to pass as a wizard/sorcerer PC's exotic familiar or pet.Let me know if any of this sounds interesting/workable for you. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
