I'm going to be running a one-shot adventure (realistically it will probably end up being 2 maybe 3 sessions) for a group of 5 friends where for most of them this is only their 2nd time ever playing. I ran Wild Sheep Chase for them about a year ago and they liked that a lot.
This time I was wanting to run an adventure where at some point they get to fight a dragon, I know one of them would really love to do that. The only adventure I've been able to find though that specifically mentions fighting a dragon is Dragon on the Mount. My hesitation with this one is that its made for low level characters at 3-4. If something had level 8-10 that would be ideal. I want them to feel somewhat powerful and enjoy having a lot of options when it comes to combat, at least initially and I'm not experienced enough in my DMing or D&D playing these days to comfortably level up Dragon on the Mount and know that its balanced enough to work for lvl 8-10 characters. Maybe its easier to level up an adventure than I'm remember, but given the situation on this planet I haven't been doing much D&D anything for at least a year now.
TL;DR: What are some good short adventures where you fight a dragon? Preferably for characters level 8 and above.
We did The Forge of Fury and you had to fight / encounter a dragon at the end of that. It's in the Yawning Portal. I would say that is one of the better ones from it.
