On the other hand, how much mana organ ought there be? How many mana stones?
If the mana organ is the relative size of the human spleen, it would weight five tons or so. That ought to make a fair number of mana stones.

1 carat = .2 grams, 5 tonnes = 5000kg, every 1000 carat = 200 grams, so ~25,000 manastones if the entire spleen sized mana organ is converted into manastones

Still an ideal synergy for pots of create food, which can turn rocks into edible, if unpalatable, nutritious food. You could also have a ring that makes you able to digest rocks like a dragon.

The dragon had ST 3500 or so and a range of abilities besides. Probably worth 10,000 points or more.

Just don't make it free, being able to turn into a red dragon is awesome, but since it's a 10,000 point creature it is going to require a HUGE energy supply to cover the difference in CP to turn into the dragon (perhaps one of those manastones) (as per the shapeshift spell). Alternatively have it turn them into a red dragon of equivalent age to the user (which will likely still be powerful, but in 'just post hatchling' stage), or if you are feeling partciularly generous, both.
