I stumbled across an interesting type of dragon: Titanium...
Were might I find such a fantastical dragon? for the site a found it on offered no stats besides a challenge rating and this particular dragon's CR was through the roof.

Third to last dragon:
Name: Zyrxellith CR: 29 Type: Male Wyrmling Titanium

As a wyrmling this dragon's CR should be quite low however even compared to a mighty Prismatic wyrmling's CR (Which is 14 by the way)this dragon is fearsome! Where is this dragon's stats found and how is it so powerful?

Prolly Draconomicon, but I ain't sure.

If you want a FUN dragon check out the plutonium dragon in Munchin 3e , it is born gargantuan and diminishes every once in a very long while

Nah, Its not in Draconimicon, but I think the Plutonium Dragon is probably a similar dragon.

That list looks like the list from Dragons of Faerun or the same, but expanded, list from the DoF web enhancement. I thought the titanium dragon was also written up in DoF.

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

The Plutonium Dragon was, as everything in Munchkin, meant as a joke... they are born gargantuan and shrink after 25k years or so, becoming smaller... it's as much a joke as the ghoulfiend, wight brothers, or grassy gnoll...

Perhaps Io is pulling a Bane, seeing as how he gets the axe in 4th ed.

If I waited till I knew what I was doing, I'd never get anything done.

It isn't from 2nd Edtion, so I'd guess at a 3rd Edition source or some homebrew/fan creation.

We had a mercury dragon entry, but I'm pretty sure there was no titanium dragon. I think a stainless steel dragon would be more fun anyway.

Isn't the chromium dragon much like the stainless steel dragon?

Myself, I'm most worried about the Enriched Uranium dragon, which is so very good at hiding from arms inspectors.

Cheers

I'm very big about using sunscreen, so I'd prefer a Titanium Dioxide dragon.

Considering that the Germans were getting their Plutonium for their own Atomic Bomb from Peat, I think a radiocative 'Bog Dragon' would actually be a very interesting addition to D&D lore.

Picture a Dragon that lives in Swamps and Marshes that is all about decay - it gets near plant life and it just wilts (and humans 'age'). People would think it is some form of undead dragon, when the reality is that the beast is somewhat redioactive.

Wait! I just described Godzilla!
