Romancing a Bronze Dragon

[Tes]

Let's Metagame this for a second:

Would that be cool? ...Depends.
Do you want to sidetrack your party for hours across the whole campaign because the horny Bard wanted to RP horny stupid?

No?
Well, an offended Dragon could be polite or have him (literally) for breakfast in response to his suggestion.
Rolling up a new character that's not a horny Bard could be a learning experience if that's just more of the usual.

Yes?
Make him work for it outside of the campaign, don't bother the other players with it outside of the "best of" parts. Writing up letters and **** is going to be homework (you can read for your own amusement).


Ignore alignment. Sentient creatures are individuals. I know a cat or 3 that behaves more like a dog than a dog or 3 that'd classify as cats if Alignment had a thing to say in the matter. Aside from being a menace on small animal life in the general area, because that's an actual genetic cat trait, character and by extension alignment is up the the individual even in animals.
Wasn't the Chaotic Evil King of Slaads riding around on a Bronze Dragon or something? Might have been a Copper, definitely metallic (read race alignment = good) though. Exceptions exist in reality and in game alike for a reason. Life's a spectrum of greys, black and white barely exists.

Btw not judging something like a Dragon by human standards is probably a good idea. A newborn Dragon is outpacing a human toddler by a lightyear and then some in terms of mental growth on day 1.
50 years worth of experiences as a sentient creature might not be enough to reach adulthood by draconic standards, but the standard here is to be a match in character growth for a humanoid somehow, that's probably easy enough when you plopped into the world 50 years ago and could already speak.
Looking at draconic physical development and how many multiples an ancient is compared to a hatchling, their system appears to be a bit more granular than applicable humanoid standards.

Ofc if someone were to insist on a simple analog progression to humanity and absolutely had to use a similar distribution for stages of maturity, dunno - maybe to give the usual medieval peasant some scale he can grasp, sure, dragons are toddlers for 50 years by that classification. Look how cute he chomps on that whole cow, Awwww.
