This is one of the new dragons from Draconomicon II. Since only the adult was presented in the prview, that is what I did the conversion for.

Orium dragons live among ruins of ancient civilizations, commanding lesser creatures to rebuild the glories of yesteryear and recapture the magic of fallen empires. To those under its protection, an orium dragon is a wise but sometimes harsh monarch. Those who threaten the dragon’s dreams of renewed empire find themselves choking on its corrosive breath—while they watch the vapor coalesce into a smoky serpent that attacks at the dragon’s command.

I'd rather have the Oreo Dragon, (and Milk), myself.

Hey look, it's Nargacuga!

I'm just tagging this really quick to see if I can't fit a whole age progression on your neat little conversion here, if you don't mind.

Good luck. I was never a big fan of the whole age catagory thing myself.

You are welcome.

Having done this, I may take a crack at reverse enginnering some of the other 4E dragons, sort varients for what we already have.

I will introduce this into my game as an Orichalcum Dragon.

Anyone have any preference as to which I do first?

Not sure what our options are.

Wait, aren't there a few types of dragon they have that aren't in 3.5? I say another of those.

If not, I vote Black.

Adamantium and Iron are the two that they don't have in 3+. I am only going to do one or two age catagories for each type, mostly because I am not a fan of the age catagory system.

The Exchange

How about a young Iron Dragon and an Old Adamantium dragon then?

Dark Archive

I was actually thinking adult and elder of each type.


I'd suggest changing the name to Orichalcum Dragon as that is the actual mystical metal that inspired the Orium Dragon and has the bonus as been mentioned in several ancient writings including the Atlantis legend. Plus naming it the Orichalcum Dragon avoids the issue of using a WoTC name that is designed to lock down IP.

Any "new" Chromatic dragons?

They did the purple, brown, and gray dragons, but these were just redos of the deep dragon, sand dragon,and fang dragon respectively.

Okay, I have the adamantine dragon done and the iron dragon almost done. I should get them posted tomorrow.
