Traits: A dragon possesses the following traits (unless otherwise noted in the description of a particular kind).
Darkvision out to 60 feet and low-light vision. Immunity to magic sleep effects and paralysis effects. Proficient with its natural weapons only unless humanoid in form (or capable of assuming humanoid form), in which case proficient with all simple weapons and any weapons mentioned in its entry. Proficient with no armor. Dragons eat, sleep, and breathe.
Epic Dragons:
Force Dragon Prismatic Dragon (Epic dragons share all the combat characteristics of True Dragons. But, even wyrmling epic dragons are Huge, and are capable of making tail sweep and crush attacks.)
COMBAT A dragon attacks with its powerful claws and bite, and can also use a breath weapon and special physical attacks, depending on its size. It prefers to fight on the wing, staying out of reach until it has worn down the enemy with ranged attacks. Older, more intelligent dragons are adept at sizing up the opposition and

*All dragon bite attacks have reach as if the creature were one size category larger. All other attacks are made with the standard reach for the dragons size. Bite: Bite attacks deal the indicated damage plus the dragons Strength bonus. A dragon also can use its bite to snatch opponents if it has the Snatch feat. Claw: Claw attacks deal the indicated damage plus 1/2 the dragons Strength bonus (round down). The dragon also can use its claws to snatch opponents if it has the Snatch feat. Claw attacks are secondary attacks, requiring a 5 penalty on the attack roll. (Many dragons choose the Multiattack feat to lessen this penalty to 2). Wing: The dragon can slam opponents with its wings, even when flying. Wing attacks deal the indicated damage plus 1/2 the dragons Strength bonus (round down) and are treated as secondary attacks. Tail Slap: A larger or larger dragon can slap one opponent each round with its tail. A tail slap deals the indicated damage plus 1-1/2 times the dragons Strength bonus (round down) and is treated as a secondary attack. Crush (Ex): This special attack allows a flying or jumping dragon of at least Huge size to land on opponents as a standard action, using its whole body to crush them. Crush attacks are effective only against opponents three or more size categories smaller than the dragon (though it can attempt normal overrun or grapple attacks against larger opponents). A crush attack affects as many creatures as can fit under the dragons body. Creatures in the affected area
*A line is always 5 feet high and 5 feet wide. **A cone is as high and wide as its length. Frightful Presence (Ex): A young adult or older TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS can unsettle foes with its mere presence. The ability takes effect automatically whenever the TRUE/EPIC DRAGON attacks, charges, or flies overhead. Creatures within a radius of 30 feet x the TRUE/EPIC DRAGONs age category are subject to the effect if they have fewer HD than the TRUE/EPIC DRAGON. A potentially affected creature

TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS that take levels in a PC/NPC class gain feats as the character class advances, not by total hit die, the HD do not stack. TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS favor Alertness, Blind-Fight, Cleave, Flyby Attack, Hover, Improved Initiative, Improved Sunder, Power Attack, Snatch, Weapon Focus (claw and/or bite), Wingover, and any metamagic feat that is available and useful to sorcerers. TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS that take levels in fighter can apply fighter bonus feats to their natural attacks if they meet the prerequisites (ie. Fighter4 with Weapon Focus, claws; can take Weapon Specialization, claws). These class feats do not stack with racial/monstrous feats that grant the same type of bonuses.
DRAGON, TRUE The known varieties of TRUE DRAGONS (as opposed to other creatures that have the dragon type) fall into two broad categories: chromatic and metallic. The chromatic TRUE DRAGONS are black, blue, green, red, and white; they are all evil and extremely fierce. The metallic TRUE DRAGONS are brass, bronze, copper, gold, and silver; they are all good, usually noble, and highly respected by the wise. All TRUE DRAGONS gain more abilities and greater power as they age. (Other creatures that have the dragon type do not.) They range in length from several feet upon hatching to more than 100 feet after attaining the status of great wyrm. The size of a particular dragon varies according to age and variety. A TRUE DRAGONS metabolism operates like a highly efficient furnace and can metabolize even inorganic material. Some TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS have developed a taste for such fare. Although goals and ideals vary among varieties, all TRUE DRAGONS are covetous. They like to hoard wealth, collecting mounds of coins and gathering as many gems, jewels, and magic items as possible. Those with large hoards are loath to leave them for long, venturing out of their lairs only to patrol the immediate area or to get food. For TRUE DRAGONS, there is no such thing as enough treasure. Its pleasing to look at, and they bask in its radiance. TRUE DRAGONS like to make beds of their hoards, shaping nooks and mounds to fit their bodies. By the time a TRUE DRAGONS matures to the age of great wyrm, hundreds of gems and coins may be imbedded in its hide. All TRUE DRAGONS speak Draconic. Dragon Overland Movement Chromatic and metallic dragons are exceedingly strong flyers and can cover vast distances quickly. A dragons overland flying speed is a function of its tactical fly speed, as shown on the table below.
Dragon Overland Flying Speeds --------------- Dragons Fly Speed ---------------One Hour Normal Hustle One Day Normal 120 miles 160 miles 240 miles 320 miles 400 miles 480 miles 100 feet 15 miles 24 miles 150 feet 20 miles 40 miles 200 feet 30 miles 60 miles 250 feet 40 miles 80 miles 300 feet 50 miles 100 miles 350 feet 60 miles 120 miles
Dragons do not tire as quickly as other creatures when moving overland on the ground. If a dragon attempts a hustle or a forced march, check for non-lethal damage once every 2 hours instead of every hour.
DRAGONS: LESSER, TRUE, AND EPIC DRAGONHIDE Armorsmiths can work with the hides of dragons to produce armor or shields of masterwork quality. Armor that has been made from the hide and scales of a dragon is referred to as Dragonhide Armor. It is always of Masterwork quality. Only hide armor, banded mail, half-plate, breastplate or suit of full plate can be made from Dragonhide. However, with the Dragoncrafter(3.5e Feat) the armor or shield grants it's wearer non-magical elemental resistance to the element of the dragon it was made from. This is
treated as an extraordinary and is not effected by and anti-magic field. Because Dragoncraft armor isnt made of metal, druids can wear it without penalty. Dragoncraft armor costs double what masterwork armor of that type ordinarily costs, but it takes no longer to make than ordinary armor of that type. Dragoncraft armor has 10 hit point and hardness of 10.

ADVANCING DRAGONS
The standard advancement rules allow TRUE/EPIC DRAGON theoretically infinite progression even beyond the stage of great wyrm. The following rules let dragons improve more than their Hit Dice as they progress to epic heights of power.
Age Category: A standard TRUE DRAGON gains one virtual age category for every 3 Hit Dice it gains beyond the great wyrm stage. Abilities that function once per day per age category or otherwise use the dragons age category as part of a calculation use this adjusted number. Epic dragons gain one age category per 5 Hit Dice beyond great wyrm. Size: One important element of TRUE DRAGON advancement is increasing size. The TRUE DRAGONS that dont reach Colossal size by the great wyrm stage can never reach it according to the standard advancement rules. When advancing a TRUE DRAGON, consider its basic size group: lesser (white, black, brass, and copper dragons), ordinary (green, blue, and bronze dragons), greater (silver, red, and gold), or epic (force and prismatic). A TRUE DRAGON that is Tiny as a wyrmling is in the lesser group, a TRUE DRAGON that is Small as a wyrmling and never reaches Colossal size is in the ordinary group, and a TRUE DRAGON that is Small to Large as a wyrmling and reaches Colossal by the great wyrm stage is in the greater group. A lesser TRUE DRAGON becomes Colossal when it gains two age categories (6 Hit Dice) beyond great wyrm. It increases to Colossal+ when it gains an additional four age categories (12 HD). An ordinary dragon becomes Colossal when it gains one age category (3 Hit Dice) beyond great wyrm. It increases to Colossal+ when it gains an additional four age categories (12 HD). A greater TRUE DRAGON becomes Colossal+ when it gains four age categories (12 HD) more than it needed to reach the Colossal size. Epic dragons, already Colossal+ by the time they reach the great wyrm stage, do not increase in size thereafter. Use the information presented under the epic dragon entry, above, to determine the statistics of a Colossal+ dragon. Armor Class: All TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS natural armor bonus increases by +1 for every Hit Die it gains beyond the great wyrm stage. (natural armor and Hit Dice always increase at the same rate.) Breath Weapon: If a TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS breath weapon deals damage, the damage typically increases by 2 dice for every virtual age category the TRUE/EPIC DRAGON gains. The two exceptions among standard TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS are the brass and white dragons, whose breath weapon damage increases by only 1 die per age category. The saving throw DC against a TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS breath weapon remains 10 + 1/2 the dragons Hit Dice + its Constitution modifier. Spell Resistance: For standard advanced TRUE DRAGONS, spell resistance increases by 2 per additional age category. For EPIC DRAGONS, spell resistance increases by 3 (for force dragons) or 6 (for prismatic dragons) per additional age category. Move: When a TRUE DRAGONS becomes Colossal, its fly speed increases by 50 feet and its maneuverability becomes clumsy. When it reaches Colossal+, its fly speed increases by another 50 feet, and its maneuverability remains clumsy. A TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS land speed and other special movements (swim, burrow, and so on) do not change. Ability Scores: A great wyrms Strength and Constitution scores both increase by +2 for every virtual age category the TRUE/EPIC DRAGON gains. Its Dexterity remains unchanged. Its Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma True Dragons Ordinary Gargantuan GW HD GW HD +3 HD(1 age category) (on +4th HD become Colossal) Colossal +12 HD(4 age categories) (on +13th HD become Colossal +) increase by +2 for every two age categories the TRUE/EPIC DRAGON gains. Special: TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS do not gain additional spell-like abilities, but their damage reduction continues to increase as they gain Hit Dice. For most TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS (the exceptions being the force and prismatic dragons), the great wyrms damage reduction increases to 15/epic after exceeding the great wyrm age category and the TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS natural weapons count as epic weapons for the purposes of bypassing damage reduction. Force and prismatic dragons have the following DR progression: wyrmling 10/magic, young 15/magic, young adult 15/epic, mature adult 20/epic, very old 25/epic. Caster Level: A great wyrms caster level increases by 2 for every virtual age category the TRUE DRAGON gains. As with the epic dragons described later, advanced TRUE DRAGONS gain the Improved Spell Capacity feat as a bonus feat once for every three caster levels above 20th. Feats: Like ordinary TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS, advanced TRUE/EPIC DRAGONS receive one feat for every 3 Hit Dice they have. Feats gained after the dragon attains great wyrm status can be epic feats. Challenge Rating: For standard TRUE DRAGONS, CR increases by 2 per additional age category. For epic dragons, CR increases by 3 per additional age category. All other dragon statistics are as presented for dragons in general and specific dragon varieties.

may take their 1st level in a spellcasting PC/NPC class at the age category that a Human would (15+yrs=Age Category Young) if the TRUE DRAGONS ability score is 11 or greater. If a TRUE DRAGON gets its draconic spellcasting level at a younger age category, it may take its 1st level of sorcerer one age category earlier, if its Charisma is 11 or better. TRUE DRAGONS that

A TRUE DRAGON with PC/NPC class levels may advance one class level every 66.6 yrs of age (3 PC/NPC class levels every 200 yrs). TRUE DRAGONS that take levels in a PC/NPC class gain feats as the character class advances, not by total hit die, the dragons racial HD and PC/NPC class HD do not stack.
