One I created. Cemetery dragon, primarily for the breath weapon (causes wounds inflicted on the dragon to be redirected to those it breathed on) and for the confusion it causes when people assume it's a dracolich.

Shadow Dragons. Why? I've killed the most PC's with them. Plus, watching players cry as their levels are drained away is an exquisite evil pleasure. :evil:
Since its 20,000 I suggest "Captain Nemo" as his title. Beyond the obvious connection, he is one who sails on his own terms and ignores those he doesn't agree with...confident in his journey and goals.

Any of them really. I dang near TPK'd a party of 8 6th level PCs with a 2HD red dragon and did TPK a party of 6 10th level characters with an 8HD green dragon. *WEG* I love dragons.

Green dragons pour moi. I love green, forests are cool, and their cunning nature and delight in torture makes them frightening to the extreme.

Oh, and that chlorine cloud taking out those kobolds in the ad&d DM's Guide looks tres cool.

Oh that's easy for me . .

The Silver Dragon. Read the second paragraph under the description in the M&T.

I created a campaign world and wrote six modules started by what I read there and then have been running on online game with many of our forum members.

For anyone interested:

Intro/recruitment:

viewtopic.php?f=10&t=15130&p=229775&hil ... on#p229775

and

earlier game thread:

viewtopic.php?f=23&t=15133

That paragraph practically writes or suggests so many possible adventures, so I created a few and those led to so many others.

Copper Dragon. They're good, but never seemed "too good". The witty (ie: smart ass) sense of humor is something I can appreciate. I also like the combo of acid & slow breath weapons.

White Dragon. Its not used much and I wrote a convention adventure featuring it as the big bad. Lots of fun.

Excellent.

The White was the adversary in my module and a fantastic battle was had at the end, betwixt the two. Very cinematic it was, at least in my mind.

Black dragon. Hidden, and they way I see them devious and underhanded.

White dragon, definitely. A frost-breathing dragon is totally KVLT. Not that everyone doesn't love a classic fire-breathing red...

One of my tattoos is made of the old Greyhawk runes for “winter dragon.”
