There’s an interesting example of this in Van Richten’s Guide to Ravenloft in the domain of dread called Niranjan.Ī metallic dragon might decide that they’ve had enough of all the evil in the world and so have launched a crusade, or the party might not live up to the exacting standards of a platinum dragon.

These dragon doggos make great companion monsters to a horde of kobolds or as guards or raiders sent by a dragon to collect taxes from a village or to prevent nosy adventurers from acquiring a gold cache that was set up. They also come with lair actions and regional effects that you could potentially add to introduce new players to those features. One could be harassing caravans, or manipulating a local merchants guild to acquire all that they seek. A wyrmling is a newly hatched dragon that is seeking to build their horde and to grow in size and power. Wyrmlings come in all the different colors of a dragon and can be a great hook to introduce a larger threat.
