Regular diapers for baby dragons though... asbestos cloth and rock-wool pads?

Alchemical components? A dragon's got make a living somehow.

p.s. Id be interested in hearing uses for dragon shell. Seems to lend itself to being ground up and used as an anti-breath ointment. A more flexible 'leathry' shell might even lend itself to a mage's robe with neat properties. A black 'leather' robe that gives resistance to electrical attacks might be pretty kewl in a DF game......

.........

Some human cultures head bound infants. Definitely a mark of high society you can't fake.

There was an article in an old Dragon or White Dwarf about a world where the material component for all spells (standard D&D spell system) was a pinch of dragon shell. You got 50 or 100 pinches out of a shell. There were some interesting economic dynamics in dragon egg hunting.

The symbolism on eggs is usually life, immortality, renewal, regeneration, fertility, etc.

I'm thinking alchemical viagra and rogaine would both include it, along with providing energy for Youth and Resurrection spells, Instant Regeneration, and suchlike.

So a product for Dragons based on that:

Fake Dragon Eggs. Guaranteed to throw off those pesky hunters looking for your young ones and as an added bonus the shell will actually reverse the effect of any spell, potion, or other alchemical process that it's used for.
