One of the things I like to do to rump up difficulty when I'm dealing with Dragons, is increase their natural lifespan to the point of some of the older dragons alive still remember when the world was young, mountains erupted all over, the sky black with ash, the whole baby earth bit. Now, let's say that after a dragon has been around long enough for its old age to humble even an ancient dragon, they become a True Elder Dragon, and begin to focus more on magic and rest than fighting and acquiring treasure. These dragons are possibly multiple millenia old, and have been studying spellcraft since magic first touched the earth.
How long would one of these dragons have to live and how powerful (cr or character lvls) would they have to be to ascend to godhood?
I wholeheartedly intend to place one of these square in my players' way...Eventually. They'd die of heart attacks just seeing how big he is from living this long at their current level. This one's even discovered the secret to immortality. If his Dragonic body dies, he's forcibly reincarnated into a more human looking form.
We're not looking to challenge Tiamat of Bahamut, yet anyway. This isn't even the final boss, it is one of them.

...Ehhh, whatever. It was a dumb idea anyways

I'll have to make a picture or *shudders* draw a picture of him

I want to see a fight between Cataclysm and Bahkiri
I'd hate having to DM or referee that fight, but it would be a fight to be sure!
