Codex Draconis - Blue Satraps of The Deserts

W
elcome to the second Codex Draconis, the

line of products that gives you what you
need to drop dragons into your games with
a minimum of effort and a maximum of options. Here
in the second volume of our line, we present options
and alternatives for a dozen blue dragons, covering
every age category of the azure lords of the steppes and
deserts. Each age category also has three pregenerated
treasure hoards, some alternative monster builds, and
suggestions on how to build even deadlier dragon
encounters.
Dragons are among the most iconic, and most
popular, of all fantasy roleplaying game foes. Once
the domain exclusively of higher-level adventures,
dragons now have rules for every stage of life. This
means that wet-behind-the-ears PCs can face dragons
early in their careers (though likely they will be facing
dragons the size of housecats). To ensure a dragon
is always just the right threat for PCs of any level,
dragons are given twelve stages of life that, when
combined with the many different types of dragons,
creates a range of CRs from 5 to 21. The problem with
that, of course, is that it requires a lot of stat blocks,
and those take up room. To save space, instead of
presenting a full write-up of every dragon at every
age category, the game’s creators present a set of rules
outlining how to write up dragons, and then give a
few examples of each type. As a result, although you
can find a dragon of the right CR for an encounter,
it takes a considerable amount of work to get that
dragon ready for the game.
To help with that problem, the fine folks at
D20PFSRD.com took on the job of creating full stat
blocks for every true dragon of every type, and when
we expressed an interest in using those as the starting
point for our Codex Draconis line, they were kind
