Bronze.
They can make people LAUGH TO DEATH.
Or groan to death, depending on how bad the joke is.
go with a tarrasque synthesistBeg Pardon?
I know, that's a terrible idea.
Silver dragons are pretty awesome.
I like all of them to add to my collection...
Umbral Dragon/Ravager because dragons aren't scary enough so you just have to add negative levels.
Silver Dragons are my go-to good dragons, nothing more comfortable than a cloud to lie back on and enjoy the sun.
Blue Dragons are my go-to bad guys, they have the temperament to plan and co-operate with others that makes them far more scary than a Reds random acts of chaos.
Since I basically love all the dragons, it'd be hard for me to pick just one. Still, if you want raw power, the time dragon is definitely the strongest for whatever age category it's at, plus, if your DM's crazy enough to let you play a great wyrm, you can literally time travel!

Fairy dragon...
That is all...
Oh if you want to get funny... and if u can use 3rd party... A half fairy dragon (its a 3rd party race, not template) Sorcerer with the fairy dragon bloodline and your gestalt as fairy dragon.... because F+*@IN FAIRIES!!!!
I love green dragons. I just like that they're more inclined to cunning, plotting, and politics over just blasting away at opponents or ripping them to shreds. The cunning, frightening politicians of the dragons, so to speak.

Lol idk. Neothelid with half dragon template for a giant psychic dragon.

Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
The DR 15/Vorpal and the G0DDAMN LASER EYES!
My favorite since 2E were bronze dragons. They live just as much in the water as on land or in the air. They can breath "GO AWAY I'M SLEEPING" gas on you. They can change form into animals or humanoids. Add in all sorts of fun SLAs, like the ability to control the weather, and they are an awesome creature. Plus, they look kickass.
I've always been fond of the imperial forest dragon, because nobody ever expects the breath weapon to be piercing damage. Sure, elemental is probably better, but it's a hilarious surprise to energy resistant characters.
So I've chosen a gold dragon. Because shiny, GENERALLY good, and adorable. Now I'm stuck on feats. Any advice, paizo fans?
Go melee.
Improved natural attack (bite first, then claws)
Fighter as class. Weapon focus and Weapon spec with natural weapons...
Improved Natural Armor-Stack this.
Dodge.
Totally ignore casting. You can make a hell of a melee monster.
I think you mean Copper.Bronze.

Probably.

Why? Why would you use Fighter for a natural weapon user.
The answer is right in front of you.
For the sheer number of feats they get...
Imagine threatening crits on claw/claw/bite/wing/wing/tail...
Then stack the crit feats... Barbarians don't have enough feats to do that.
Crits on 19+ resulting in bleed damage AND permanently blinding people? Yup, very nice.
Or go into CMB stuff... attempt to disarm 6 times in a round! Whee!
The answer is right in front of you.
You would need a trait or an alignment change for that, Gold Dragons are almost universally lawful. You can do it with an alignment change, but the players will probably cry cheese :) .
Now, imagine a viking (fighter) dragon :P .
Probably.I think you mean Copper.Bronze.

If memory serves, Bronze were the ones to use sleep breath then bury them to their necks to.force them to listen to its stories and to talk to it....
It BORED people to death
Gold dragons are typically the epitome of Paladin . . . they are like a race full of paladins.
No, that was the Silver.
The Gold was the wizened old dragon who was full of knowledge and wisdom through the years. They tend to be patient and considerate. By some others, they are TOO patient.
This might have changed in pathfinder, but I've always read golds as going off on their own missions for good; their own crusades, as it were. Silvers were always the friendly and helpful type.Gold dragons are typically the epitome of Paladin . . . they are like a race full of paladins.No, that was the Silver.

I remember it being the other way around. But most of my lore tends to follow forgotten realms (i have a library of over 100 books from forgotten realms :p). In particulair the series about the dragons raging. The silvers were the captains of the guards and the knights, but they tended to be a bit hasty and judgemental and led them to he prone to the rage.
We're not allowed to say the name of Bahamut, the Platinum Dragon, just 'cause we're on the Paizo message-boards?
. . .
Actually, I suppose that is WotC IP. /sigh
Radiant Dragon, from Spelljammer...makes colossal as a size category look microscopic. Amongst many other over-powered abilities.
Doesn't Pathfinder have its own Bahamut? Apsu isn't it?

Will you already have the feats of a Gold Dragon? Will you get to pick your own feats in place of the feats listed for the Dragon's monster entry?
If your feats are resetting, make sure you pick up Multiattack.
If you haven't picked a class yet, I'd suggest Bloodrager, with the Celestial Bloodline. All your attacks will break through DR/evil and do extra damage to evil creatures. Plus, it seems very flavor appropriate, as well as with the notion of "I'm a huge hulking beast, who can also cast some spells if I really want to".

I know for a fact that in vanilla 3.5 the silvers were the friendly social ones. Don't really know if that's changed in PF, and I never messed with Forgotten Realms so I don't know how that differed.
"Bahamut the Platinum Dragon" might be copyrightable/trademarkable, though, just as Tiamat being a multi-headed, multi-colored dragon goddess is WotC IP even if the name itself isn't.
