Developing a Gold Dragon PC


Rules Questions

Silver Crusade

I'm currently attempting to create a Gold Dragon as a Player Character, and for some reason, I'm finding this more aggrevating than it probably should be. For starters, I can't seem to find any information on a Dragon's racial modifiers to skills and other tidbits of information (like the Level Adjustment for Dragons period). Any help in creating this character would be greatly appreciated.


To find racial mods, take each ability score and subtract 10 from it if it is even, and 11 from it if it is odd.

I would suggest starting out with a wyrmling and then SLOWLY scaling up with level. And also being above first level, but no more than 6th level

Sovereign Court RPG Superstar 2009 Top 32, 2010 Top 8

Here's a good place to start.

I know for the silvers using these rules they rocked at 1st level then fell behind, then caught up, then fell behind... it's a rocky road.


Level adjustments are a 3.5 thing and can be found in the monster manual.
For a gold dragon:
wyrmling LA+4, 9-10HD
very young +5, 12-13
young +6, 15-16
The ECL for the other age categories would be in the epic range, so it's not charted.

Racial modifiers, if not mentionned in the monster entries, do not exist. In pathfinder, they gain 6+int ranks for each of their racial HD.
