Green Dragons, and here's why.

Cyan Bloodbane.

The Dragonlance universe was my entry into fantasy fiction, and I was reading it when I was 9 or 10. I hadn't heard of anything as crafty as Cyan Bloodbane's corruption of the Silvanesti King Lorac. Cyan was generally thought of as physically weak and was therefore underestimated by his dragon peers. However, what he lacked in brute strength, he made up for in intellect. Basically, the Raistlin Majere of dragons. As you may imagine, this held great appeal for a non-athletic middle child with a sports-minded older brother. 

I'm older now. I know that other characters in other stories did the same thing but better. But, for me, Cyan Bloodbane was the first truly cunning, evil dragon that I read about, and, for that, the green dragons have my respect.

 Balls to you that is awesome!

I also selected Green Dragon because I've always wanted to face one but never have. I've contested wills against a Black Dragon, and I hatched a Red Dragon in two different campaigns. White dragons seem cool but Green Dragons appear to me to be employ the most mind games which I think would be fun as a player to go through.

However, my true favorite dragon of all is actual Purple Dragons, not the Purple Dragon of Cormyr, but legit Purple Dragons from the Underdark. I played a 3.5e into Pathfinder 2e MUD that featured a Purple Dragon named Arkhon Bloodscale who was a trap room that would auto-kill players who entered it. My dwarf, then Undelhorn of the Longarm clan and Keeper of the Forge - now King Undelhorn of Ugrar Mordin, ran across the Purple Dragon in the Underdark while on patrol. I had only a few months prior forsaken my deity to worship the Platinum Dragon on the way back north to the Dwarven village of Kinaro from my adventures in the southern Empire. A platinum crest to the Platinum Dragon fell from the sky onto my head knocking my character out. When I awoke, I took it as a sign, but the game did not have Bahmut or anything like that programmed in as a deity that I could worship so I became 'godless' and I was the first player to have done so. When I did so unknown to myself or the staff of the MUD this created a bug and my character melded with the game like a dwarf into stone. So, when the party and I walked into this trap room they all died but Arkhon Bloodscale left me alive. In character we had a discussion about the deities that Dragons worship and he let me go. Then the staff had me repeat the process to confirm it was a bug and after the Sundering they programmed in a Dragon deity, but I don't worship it. Having learned I was actually godless for all those years my character resolved to trust in his axe, armor, and shield rather than some mystical nonsense or magical hand junk.

I didn't include Purple Dragons in the poll because they are one of the off shoots of the Chromatic Dragons and someone else posted this same poll but for Metallic Dragons. I figured someone else will post a poll asking about all our other favorites.
