Belligerent creatures that tend to attack without provocation. Their fierce, toothy jaws and arrogant crests warn other creatures of their aggressive nature. A wyrmling green dragon's scales are thin, very small, and a deep shade of green that appears nearly black. As the dragon ages, the scales grow larger and lighter, turning shades of forest, emerald, and olive green, which helps it blend in with its wooded surroundings.

Combat
Green dragons initiate
fights with little or no provocation, picking on creatures of any size. If the
target is intriguing or seems formidable, the dragon stalks the creature to
determine the best time to strike and the most appropriate tactics to use. If
the target appears weak, the dragon makes its presence known quickly-it enjoys
evoking terror. Sometimes the dragon elects to control a humanoid creature through
intimidation and suggestion. Green dragons especially like to question adventurers
to learn more about their society and abilities, what is going on in the countryside,
and if there is treasure nearby.
Breath Weapon (Su): A green dragon has one type of breath weapon, a cone of corrosive (acid)
gas.
water
breathing (Ex): A green dragon can breathe underwater indefinitely and can freely use its
breath weapon, spells, and other abilities while submerged.
Spell-Like Abilities: 3/day-suggestion (adult or older), dominate person (ancient or older);
1/day- plant
growth (old or older), command plants (great wyrm).
Skills: Bluff, Hide, and Move Silently are considered class skills for green dragons.
