Re: [Bestiary] Dragons, dragons, always with the dragons!
Trickster. They live for counting coup and teasing dangerous targets. Like squirrels seem to with dogs, cats, and birds.

Re: [Bestiary] Dragons, dragons, always with the dragons!
Its going to depend on your mythology.
In my own setting if someone were to predate on dragons it would really only require a or a two key features: 1. an innate attack that mimics dragonsbane- all dragons in my setting have very thick scales (DR 20+), and high health/dexterity, but dragonsbane based attacks do damage ignoring that armour, and debilitate the dragon 2. Magical resistance, or static- as magical beings dragons with high intellect but no real technology, and clumsy claws instead of hands, dragons rely on there mystical nature to handle things like healing, or doing detail work- anything that is immune to those effects, or worse can negate them in the dragon is going to be an effective predator 3. resistance/immunity to the dragon's breath weapon- the breath weapon is one of the 'key' parts of what makes a dragon, and they tend to rely on these long range area attacks to deal with most foes, anythign that can ignore such can get a significant advantage while the dragon has to change tactics. 4. NOT be something that exists in common memory- dragon's are smart and gregarious enough to share knowledge, if there is some creature that eats them they are going to learn about it, discern its weaknesses, and develop countermeasures- some sort of zeroed for the race would almost be paramount. |

I'd just give them a full on "Resistance to Draconic Attacks" and call it a Common occurance.
