I love this guide. It's a handy way to make encounters slightly more balanced towards your party. This guide makes the gap between Dragon Age categories much easier to manage. Young dragon too easy but an Adult is too strong? Well, just follow this handy guide to make a stronger Young Dragon that can still challenge your party!

It is a classic staple of mine now, and I have it printed out and in my DM binder so I can power up anything in the DMG at anytime I want.
