Thematically you fancy being a Young Adult White? go for it.

now, if you wanted to grow your own dimension of dragons that would be spiffy and thematic.

but for actually 'being' a 'dragon', i would leave polymorph alone and maybe consider just mind switching one.

i think personally, i would just use an illusion to look like a dragon.

iirc, a 'dragon polymorph' spell exists, but i stand by my argument. just look the part.

I was thinking Gold, since even though it's one HD lower, I get a breath weapon that drains strength. :)

so were opting into the 10 Dex.

It also gains all extraordinary special attacks possessed by the form but does not gain the extraordinary special qualities possessed by the new form or any supernatural or spell-like abilities.

Breath Weapon (Su)

were you planning on jumping through the hoops needed to make it worth while, iirc, its a significant investment.

i think a handbook exists the cover all that.

well, thats polymorph.

shapechage is better, but its 9th level.

Dragons are indeed quite awesome. And yet, Fluff doesn't have anything at all to do with game-rules. You can say that whenever you cast Suggestion, what really happens is that your face twists to the shape of a dragon's and you roar your desire. ...or it may at least seem that way to people. Fluff being what it is, you can change it at will.

Fluff is mutable. Crunch is not.
Read, every day, something no one else is reading. Think, every day, something no one else is thinking. Do, every day, something no one else would be silly enough to do. It is bad for the mind to be always part of unanimity.
