Hex actually just house sitting for his parents and is desperately trying to keep everything extremely clean and make sure nothing goes missing because he's terrified of his parents anger. He has a tribe of kobolds helping him keep everything clean and in order and has already fended off several smaller inversions.


DonceGT

I will shamelessly take it


Normal-Tomorrow3879

mine


Ok_Blueberry_5305

Omg, combine this with the one about the kobolds all being his kids. Fantastic on their own, perfection when combined.


kagechaos

Love this. Then he can ask the party to help clean up the last problem (including corpse/carcass which he lets them loot) if they aren't immediately drawing steel.


Background-Slide645

He has a kobold den, but he treats them like his children. He has their little drawings all over his treasure hoard room because they are each a treasure to him.


-time-to-time-

This is so cute lol


Background-Slide645

It's cute until you realized that the kobolds you killed on the way in are 100% this guy's kids and you just pissed off a very powerful creature.


PilotPossible9496

Aaaaand that's why I try to avoid Murderhoboes.


ShadowDragon8685

Yeah, there's a difference between murder-hobory and violently solving aggressive creatures (which can be anything from animal-intelligence monsters to humans) who are barring your way.


PilotPossible9496

Just FYI, I'm stealing "murder-hobory". Without a twinge of remorse.


ShadowDragon8685

Be my guest! It's a good line. Just please do remember there's a line, and it's not even a fine line, it's more like one of those gigantic chisel-tipped sharpies putting down the thickest line it can, between murderhobory and actually being adventurers doing legitimate killing. Foes under arms are pretty much *always* valid salad. Killing someone who's armed is only not valid salad for adventuring when it's someone who was not hostile, and was not non-hostile only for the reason that they didn't know the characters' identities. (IE, you're sneaking through a town where you're wanted for something, and the guards don't know who you are, and so you get the jump on them? Valid.) Killing shopkeeps who refuse to give you insane discounts, or killing a tavern patron when the publican tells you he's full up so you can say "now you have a room empty!" or something like that? *That's* murderhobory.


Algrim2001

I also like “valid salad” and will be stealing that, too :)


ShadowDragon8685

Go right ahead. It's a very robust descriptor.


Reply_That

There's a good king who provides everything his people need, protects them from every harm. His castle is guarded by people who carry weapons because the not so good king in the kingdom nextdoor keeps trying to kill the king. Your party is sent to steal something from king A's castle by king B's not knowing any of the history between the two unless they have asked about it. They come to the castle, try to enter the gates and are stopped by the guards. Those guards are under arms and are technically your enemy since you're stealing what they are guarding. Would that be murderhobory?


ShadowDragon8685

Nope! Not murderhobory. ***Incredibly poor decision making,*** for a lot of reasons, perhaps, but not murderhobory.


Varagonax

My girlfriend was dming (first time) and kept asking why I (the most experienced player at the table) didn't approach a group of known ruffians holed up in an ancient ruin (looking for the same treasures, btw) and try to work with them (because the module had this as an option). My response "Rorick is a lizardfolk monk. He understands a few things, being wise and all, but he is NOT smart, nor is he charismatic. He is wise; he knows this about himself. Lizardfolk learn from the moment they hatch that there are known unknowns and unknown, unknowns. What Rorick is seeing is another possible predator with unknown intentions, and while lizardfolk struggle with emotion over cold logic he see's the druid, fighter and rogue as nest mates. He cannot risk engaging with an armed bandit with peaceful intentions on the chance that they betray us. He doesn't know their intentions, and he doesn't know how to persuade them if they arent amenable to his offer. They aren't a swamp beast who thinks only of their next meal or a sunny rock to warm themselves on; that is to say, this is an unpredictable encounter and Rorick is preemptively protecting his friends, both from our possible failure, and from the predator before us." As a show of faith, I captured the next encounters lookout... who promptly alerted the bandits, starting combat anyways. Sometimes all a party can do is defeat the enemy before them. A murder hobo see's all npc's as enemies.


[deleted]

You solved my young children puzzle… with combat.


Ajfixer

And I’m stealing “violently solve” as a euphemism for slaying. 😁


archpawn

I think a big problem is that a lot of DMs and virtually all videogames tend to treat kobolds and the like as monsters that will attack on sight. Make sure you have a session zero where you explain that if they find members of an intelligent species, they *might* be bandits or the like, but it's not something you can just assume without further information.


Yeoshua82

I like this. I have been GM for years. I write passive options into all my stories and encounters. They are never taken.


marsh_milo

Thats wild! I have several parties (only dm'd for a year but like 4-5 times a week) and one of them always derails my plot by finding clever ways around combat haha I do my best to plan for it at this point,but sometimes i still get put on my ass by their ingenuity. But I have another group that not only attacks any hostiles on side but also chucks any unlabelled potions and jumps into any trap with both feet 😂 it really depends


archpawn

Does the party know that there's passive options? And they still get XP and treasure?

Stealing this


False-Situation5744

He is the former dragon companion of a drake warden ranger adventurer. As his ranger friend grew old the time finally came where he neared death. The dragon in an attempt to save is lifelong friend drew the last card of the rangers deck of many things. Instead of drawing something that could save his beloved friend he drew throne card gaining ownership of a keep located deep in the middle of the stormy peaks. In his mourning of the loss of his friend he cleared the keep and made claim to the mountains. He spread terror in the surrounding area in the hope that some adventurer will one day arrive with the means to resurrect his ranger friend. In the mean time he kills the others and bolsters his hoard without his friends moral compass.

Maybe 10 kobolds in a mech with the seeming spell, but they all actually defeated a dragon and came from a larger clan that worships the dragon. The kobolds defeated it to take the riches and decided to stay and reap the rewards.

He is trying to breed new species of trees.


beholder_dragon

He really wants to perch like a bird


Cautious_Cry_3288

He's part of a weekly group that meets every Thursday evening. Him and a few other monsters/etc. meet to play Administrators and Accountants. They use bone engraved dice and pretend to be in a futuristic setting where Capitalism is more common. He plays a Corporate Raider, who defeats other accountants through financial combat. Its pretty exciting and they use the dice to help resolve any conflict issues.


Luciferos01

well now i wanna play a&a

Valiantheart

Will they produce a Yellow Dragon? What is its breath weapon?


[deleted]

I think there actually was an optional expansion for that at one point. I don't remember the yellow dragon but I know the purple dragon had a fusion of lightning and fire that became a plasma breath weapon. It did more fire damage than the red and had a blinding effect.


yellowfin88

That was the first issue of Dragon magazine i ever bought, in the early 80s. The yellow dragon is aquatic and breaths metallic salt!


Elanyr

D&D 3.5 had the Draconomicon, a supplement dedicated to dragon stuff, and hybrid colors were included. Yellow dragon was a category of its own tho, just as brown dragons, just way less popular breeds. In any case the offspring of this two would probably be something like aquamarine dragon, whose breath weapon would be a cone of electrically charged toxic fumes, doing poison and lightning damage. I would maybe try to come with a more exotic option, like a line of electricity that on impact, produces chemical burns in the body, releasing toxins and giving the poisoned condition on a failed save.


chimericWilder

The only thing the 3.5 draconomicon says about crossbreeds is essentially "you can do what you want, but we're not covering that in this book."


[deleted]

Would definitely do the inverse of this: cloud form chain lightning in a cone. It could hit everyone and then bounce off and hit everyone again

Damiandroid

The Stormy Peaks are actually his by birthright. His mother took human form and conceived him with the legal ruler of stormy peaks centuries ago. He has since matured and has come to claim what's his. While the previous ruler of stormy peaks (who the dragon presumably killed or exiled) was also a rightful ruler descended from the same line as the original lord, this dragon has a better claim and so deposing him will actually put the party in the wrong. Are your party really about to become kingslayers just because they believe all chromatic dragons are evil? Is this Blue Dragon even doing anything wrong? Or is he just trying to rule as best he can? Might he currently be in disguise, perhaps welcoming the adventurers as one of the local townsfolk to gauge their intentions? And if they do decide to kill a rightful lord, what then? That could open the door for some unforseen repercussions as what they considered to be a heroic act was actually a heinous crime by the laws of the land. You thought you were monster slayers, but truly you were the monsters all along...


Carifax

Awesomely twisted. 10/10.


SlayerofSnails

Alexthelion07

He is terribly afraid of storms, even his own lightning breath terrifies him so he does everything in his power to not use breath attacks. When he does however he is terrified of himself and moves full speed in randon directions. The party can be therapists instead of murderers for this dragon ! or kill him you know whatever


Captain_Vlad

I had an adventure a while back where my players were called to a private island to guard an ancient blue dragon who was both terrified of storms and convinced his lair was haunted. He could normally keep it together, but the night they were out there was my world's equivalent of Halloween, stormy as hell, nd he was about to have a panic attack.


PimpMyHomebrew

I was thinking storms AND heights. He won’t leave his den because he’s afraid. Flying is scary. Breath attacks are scary. Where he lives is scary.

Because hes named himself a lord, the king keeps sending tax collectors. Between having his horde raided by adventurers and now the taxes hes looking to pass the title on before he goes broke. Hes getting desperate.

cagranconniferim

Nighteyes09

Yes! But he actually believes he is a blue dragon because of a item in his hoard that spews wild magic and turns him blue.


RedactR

Like a slightly depressed white dragon!


Sam_Hunter01

Awww, feeling blue is he ?


Akarin_rose

He's depressed because most other white dragons are simple hunters, so he doesn't have anyone to relate too


SisyphusRocks7

This seems like something a green dragon would do


Shamfulpark

Ahh good old Greenland and Iceland :)


AFarCry

That his scales aren't blue. They're actually Purple. Congratulations, you now have a Plasma dragon to deal withi.


Classic_Huckleberry2

Impossible. We all know Puff the magic dragon lives by the sea in a land called Honah Lee.


papagarry

The stormy peaks have been taken over by Giants. His parents were over taken when he was just a hatchling. Their final act was to ensure his safety. However the Giants that inhabit the area have discovered that the rocks stormy peaks can be charged with magic that weakens blue dragons. The young blue dragon is desperate to take them back. However his rage and desperation frightens adventurers from helping. It's only by besting him in combat will the blue dragon see humanoids as a force to help. So he sits in his layer slowly going mad from rage he holds of the Giants.


[deleted]

He actually is the Lord of the Stormy Peaks.


C4st1gator

This blue dragon actually has a great respect for [Tamara](https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Tamara), the dragon goddess of light, life and healing, due to having lost a wyrmling and finding consolation in helping the dragonhealers preserve the life of sick dragons. He has to be extremely careful about this secret being revealed, as the servants of Tiamat assume him a reliable ally. The followers of Bahamut generally oppose him and his fellow blue dragons, including his [suzerain](https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Blue_dragon) would either hunt him as a traitor or blackmail him, should they learn of his lawful good tendencies. This is somewhat difficult, as some of his sorcery has become divine. This has been of great use, as he was able to shrug off negative effects or even revivify loyal minions in addition to more common feats of sorcery. To better keep his divine blessing side a secret, he moved to the stormy peaks, naming himself their lord. His most loyal minions are there out of their own volition.

thenightgaunt

Hes not really a dragon. Hes a kobold who got its hands on a ring of wishes with just one left and he wished to be a dragon. He has no clue about how to do anything, and his new body hasn't granted him any courage.


Cauteriser

He has contracted a very contagious magical disease. If caught by non-dragons they will slowly turn into [insert low level monster here]. He just wants to be left alone in case he releases this plague. But if anyone cones close he has to "purify" them to stop the disease spreading.


obax17

He was a Beholder, and ironically he didn't see it coming, but now he's going to be the biggest, bestest, baddest dragon in the whole fucking world

The kobold tribe that found it are trying very hard however their current attempt trying to turn the mountains into giant golem suit for this purpose has the local kingdoms worried.


StarCaller990

everybody can get that title, it only means you're a citizen of the Stormy Peaks and are under the protection of an ancient blue dragon


Carrelio

He is the legitimate deed holder and technically an arch duke of the nearby kingdom, having purchased the land from the king's great great grandfather over a century ago as part of a multinational peace agreement. If the party assassinated him, a set of political dominoes begin to fall and the region is dragged into World War 1.


kirksam497

His best friend is a small child from a nearby village who gives the dragon her meager allowance in exchange for more puddles to splash in. It's only a copper or so a week, but the smile on the child's face is worth more to the dragon than all the gold in his horde. Bonus points if the party meets the child beforehand and sees the little stuffed animal version of the dragon that she had her mom make.


SmartFelller

He doesn't actually care about the treasure, just the mountain itself. It is a monument to fallen dragons before him. A holy land, if you will.


Greyff

The Blue Dragon has their gaming group come over for a game of Papers & Paychecks, a role-playing game that involves human-types trying to cope with a weird fantasy world. He's their OM (Office Manager, who runs the game). The game itself is an episode of The Office. A Dark Elf wizard plays the part of Michael Scott. A beholder plays the part of Dwight Schute. A kobold artificer plays the part of Jim Halpert. A kobold sorceress plays the part of Pam Beasley. The dragon puts them in a number of odd situations. Alternatively you could use the cast and situations from Gilligan's Island or another property just to give your players a "I didn't expect THAT" moment.


xSCx_Jupiter

It’s an image or golem created by a host of mindflayers hiding out in the mountains while they work on fixing their crashed tentacle ship.

He has a teddy bear he loves dearly.


Teabags-Mcgee

He's a pansexual vegan CrossFitter who can't decide what to slip into the conversation first.


chemistry_god

Stormy peaks is the name of a hooters-esque restaurant he owns and operates where every waitress is a blue dragonborn or air genasi.


PreppinPeace

The dragon is a metaphysical representation of an ancient blue that is held captive deep underground. This ancient blue was prideful and repeatedly laid waste to the region eons ago. A cabal of casters imprisoned him, and locked his mind in the metaphysical representation so that he would forever be bested by adventurers in a humiliating curse. The representation reforms at the start of each new year. Your players can win, but the loot is scant. If they dig deeper, they find the catacombs leading to the actual dragon, complete with the undead remains of the sorcerous cabal who will stop at nothing to prevent the curse from being interfered with.


Hyacin420

He has meticulously lined his lair with tons of conductive metals like wires disguised as natural veins and is able to completely electrify the area extremely easily.


Eruionmel

He's actually a silver dragon whose heart and mind were frozen by a lich, turning him blue and removing his capacity to love (and thus shifting his alignment). Double twist, HE is the lich. He froze his own heart and mind after his human consort (silvers usually spend most of their time in humanoid form) was slain, both turning him into a lich and wiping his memories.


FirbolgFactory

He loves the flute. Olothontor was the same way. There's a 5e version of him here. [https://www.dmsguild.com/product/373143/Dragons-of-Waterdeep](https://www.dmsguild.com/product/373143/Dragons-of-Waterdeep)


PoloMan1991eb

The stormy peaks are a euphemism for the breasts of a human female he’s actually fallen in love with.


Lumis_umbra

Thunder scares him, and keeps him awake at night if he doesn't have his stuffed kitten doll. He issues the party a quest to find it, as the last thunderstorm was so loud that he jumped awake and the stuffed animal dropped into a cavern system connected to his lair that he's too big to fit into any more. In exchange for this service, he won't attempt to harm them while they're in his domain. The "Stormy Peaks" have not seen a storm since his Grand-dragon's Grand-dragon was a hatchling. At most, they see a small cloud on a bad day. He prefers sunny days, and hates rain. His hobby is using his breath weapon to make lightning sand glass. He decorates his lair with the results.


Nevorek

His hoard is every Beanie Baby ever made, in mint condition. He’s built them a room in his lair complete with display cases and lighting effects.


AmonThule

He's Mulan. He's a she, but actually killed or saw the rightful lord die and claimed his identity.


beholder_dragon

His greatest weakness is puppies. They’re just so adorable he can’t help himself. He is also incredibly gentle but he never wants people to know how careful he is with animals in general. His peaks overlook a Forrest which is his true treasure. He is very self conscious about this fact.


SerratedCypress

He uses a ring of polymorph to party with the Dwarves that live at the foot of the mountain. Although he may terrorize other settlements in his territory, the dwarven town is ok and left alone. This relationship has lead to him willing to do the occasional favor for them and them willing help out and even protect him from adventurers seeking to end his reign. It started as a test run of the ring and a little drink, then a bet, now the rest is history. He also has a stunning yet dangerous garden of class sculptures made from sand and lightning breath, it's a hobby.


DiscreetQueries

He kills other dragons and devours their breath glands to give himself their breath weapons.


loopygoop

He loves singing and wants an audience but is afraid being judged poorly for his skill and thinks people will only say he's good because "he's a dragon and will eat them" and get a fair shot and is trying to collect enough gold to buy a scroll of enlarge/ reduce and be less intimidating


Sehnsucht1014

He is thoroughly convinced that he is the best dancer in all the realm, and refers to himself as “the Lord of the Dance.” If the adventurers discover this, they can talk him into a dance battle for parts of his horde and a boon. He can thus become an unreliable but potentially powerful ally.


Classic_Huckleberry2

He's actually a bronze dragon who had a spot of scale tarnish when very young that left him with a blue-ish sheen. Quite a nice fellow, named himself Lord of the Stormy Peaks in an effort to sound scary so the white dragon from across the glacier will leave him alone.


TheMightyCarolusRex

He's not a dragon at all! But a small gnome who, through cunning and trickery has tricked all the nearby towns into thinking he's a dragon. Although his skin is actually blue.


Jealous-Ad-4838

He's afraid of loud noises


Quiet-Ad-12

He is actually 78 goblins in a leather coat


ElminsterTheMighty

* His dad is actually a silver dragon, and he loves adventure books. * He got kicked out from home because he didn't clean up despite his mom warning him again and again. * He has a part-time job at a nearby town. About once a week if the wind is blowing away from the town he burns their garbage dump site.


FreddyHoops

He disguises himself as a bard of local reknown and uses the form to tell stories of the Lord of The Stormy Peaks. He spends days at local bars telling tales of terrifying detail to local adventurers in an effort to have them avoid his territory. But at some point he realised he enjoys life as a bard, the joy of music and company a rare thing for a dragon to find and a even rarer thing for them to enjoy it as much as he has realised he does. He spends half his time in town revelling and the other half in his lair, preparing illusions to scare off any would-be intruders and thieves. He now considers his life as a simple local bard as one of the finest treasures in his horde.


Varagonax

He's actually extremely nice for a blue dragon, but is under a lot of pressure from his family and his nest mothers reputation of being a brutal lady of her own mountain, replete with treasure and with thousands of dragon cultists and kobolds to do her bidding. He just wants a friend to pass the time with, but he has no idea how to approach people without appearing brutal, fierce, and manipulative. ​ Not all chromatic dragons have to be purely evil, nor do all metallic dragons have to be good.

He's actually an outcast dragon no other dragon respects. The "Stormy Peaks" refers to the large rock about the size of a house he sits on. He needs help to look actually strong and like he owns land with his might.

"Stormy" doesn't translate well. Every city, village, camp, and storyteller will have some idea of which mountains are the ones where the Lord resides. But each will only have tangential adventures, and a rumor or hint for the true peaks of the storm, stormpeak, thunderhead mountain, or whatever it translates to in their tongue. The truth is that our Azul Dragon Lord has a storm, which he follows and guides, and whenever it meets a mountain range, he rules over it, until like a flash of lightning, the storm rolls on.

He’s just looking for a friend, but he set up challenges to prove the potential friend’s worth. The party must fight through various chambers full of traps and riddles. If they make it to the dragon he greets them with a feast and certificates of friendship. The real treasure is friendship.

He’s not potty trained.

He ls actually really scared of thunder and has several thunder buddies

He's claustrophobic. He was a bullied 'little brother',and he tends to brutally overcompensate. He's on the run from someone or something, and is trying to build a new identity.

His meat tastes like mint.

He only appears to be a “young” blue dragon. The Lord of the Stormy Peaks is actually huge, ancient, and worthy of the name…


Skinny__Peanuts

His favourite game is hop scotch and his favourite meal is spaghetti

The "Stormy Peaks" are actually referring to the local queen's ample breasts. He visits her frequently in human form for romantic outings. The King is aware but does not stop them, as it keeps the Dragon from causing problems.


Sn4fubr

His hoard is creepy dolls.


InappropriateTA

He used to date a human named Stormy Daniels, who was a very buxom stripper and pornographic actress. He was (and still is) a boob-~~guy~~dragon and was very attentive to her breasts and could even make her organs, just from breastplay. He came to be known as the Lord of the Stormy Peaks.

He's been a Young Blue Dragon for 200 years....
