If I could be a dragon, I would go for a Crystal Dragon.

ok i'm asking this because i think i'm just weird but what draws you to copper metallics? i'm curious.
i personally am not the FONDEST of them because the blurbs from the lorebooks make them seem super obnoxious but i wanna know if there's more to them than that.

Copper dragons are known to be pranksters and to have a love of bards. They love all things musical, stories, fantasy, lore, they are just very funny dragons in my opinion!
Perfect for a bard! I tend to veer towards comedy relief in my RP because at the end of the day I roleplay to have a good time. Laughing is a good time to me, so that's why a copper dragon. :)

I think all dragons are a bit obnoxious and full of themselves. I would be too if I was nearly immortal and a giant feared creature of awe!

A pure blooded red dragon interested only in acquiring riches to grow his hoard and being worshiped by lesser creatures, which lets face it, is every creature that isn't a red dragon.

Probably a green, there solely to delight in the merry-go-round of politics, walking around with the draconic equivalent of popcorn every time a new election happened and wanting to find out all about it.

I would play a Blue Dragon. They are the best dragon. I enjoy the Lawful Evil organization dragons such as the Blood of Morueme.

I love the Nose-horn on Blue Dragons. Like a Rino! Lightning is also my favorite elemental damage.

I'd just play a kobold though, myself. I really should make one.

Abishai could be neat. Dragon-like devils that serve Tiamat.

I have been playing members of a noble family in my tabletop D&D games for like 15 years. They are mostly sorcerers, and claim to be descended from an ancient, star-eating dragon. They have elaborate, apocryphal legends about their draconic progenitor and a family tradition surrounding it that spans many generations, and yet there is no real proof that any of it is true. These have been some of my favorite characters to play. Not only do I get to explore dragon lore, I get to make up whatever head-canon I want because this is just what this particular family believes. Are they really descended from an ancient, primordial dragon? It doesn't matter. They end up gaining draconic powers one way or another through pursuing research, magical items, pacts, or rituals. The mystery and awe of the dragon survives, because its the basis of these characters' identities.

Sadly my favorite type of dragon I do not think is technically canon in the setting Arelith takes place in.

There is an Opal Dragon among the Gem Dragon's that was highly attuned to positive energy and healing magic. It was a flightless dragon, shy, tended to avoid conflict if it could.
