Tired of the same old fire-breathing, gold-hoarding dragon storylines?
In this Monster Week: Dragons special (organized by @GinnyDi and @pointyhatstudios) we’re flipping the trope table with three weird and wonderful D&D adventure hooks that reimagine what dragons can be. What if dragons weren’t just ancient bosses to slay… but Magical Girls in disguise? What if their hoards were made of childhood drawings and single socks?
Whether you’re a player looking for story-rich NPCs or a DM hunting for unique plot seeds, this video will give you:
✨ A dragon who hoards *emotions* they siphon through memories
✨ A young dragon going through a chaotic magical molt
✨ A healer dragon hiding in plain sight... with enemies closing in
These aren’t your traditional dragons. These are transforming, emotional, morally complex dragons with a flair for drama - and they just might become your party’s next favorite NPC (or secret patron 👀).
C’mon, let’s get weird with it.
