[QUOTE="crazy_monkey1956, post: 3339975, member: 49514"] A similar situation arose in my campaign very recently. The party (actually, my wife's PC and a minor horde of NPCs, as we have no other players) defeated the "older brother" very young red dragon and found two red dragon eggs. One was bartered to the PCs sometime nemesis who was acting as ally at the time in exchange for their share of their treasure. The other was stuffed in a bag of holding until the group could figure out what to do with it. Fast foward a few months later. While taking refuge in the castle/lair of a silver dragon during pregnancy/childbirth/first few months of life of NPC druid's half-dragon (also silver, you do the math...) child, the red dragon egg hatches. Is the conversion possible? In my campaign, yes. I subscribe to the "one-in-a-million" philosophy, which means it is possible. Patience testing...absolutely. I played the little bugger with an adult human's intelligence, a teenager's "tude", a 2 year old's temper tantrums, and a wyrmling red dragon's abilities and powers (the main hall's banquet table had to be replaced after one scorching). And, after all was said and done, it was the silver dragon who was left with the raising of the thing. The primary reason: even with patience, skill, patience, magic, patience, etc...the dragon will be a child for longer than many PCs are alive. Quentin The wife... My bit of advice...if the DM allows it, make sure you use the dragon's inborn proclivities and reasoning capabilities to your advantage. ;) Marie [/QUOTE]
