In a home brew setting I’m currently brewing, young wyrmlings are born grey, and as they grow up and develop, their color changes based on what they treasure. For instance, those that treasure friendships and relationships may become silver dragons, those that treasure conquest become blue dragons, etc…. This is just an idea I had for it.
Edit: This blew up, I’m thinking of expanding this into a post to help me further develop the setting, cause all I have in my home brew setting is two named characters, who don’t even have names, four locations, and a system of the classification of magic items for the world.
The party could encounter an adult Gray Dragon--the first dragon to ever grow up without developing a different color. There could be a quest to find out why.
Something something grays have internal power, but cannot fully harness it until they get their color.
Maybe a lich or rogue sorcerer is harnessing it, eternally stunting the dragon, and using the power for himself. I like double twists with moral dilemmas so I'd probably write he was using the power to sustain his part dragon daughter so she doesn't die to magic disease while he tries to cure her.
