pg. 131Executor dragons tend to be aligned with
Heaven, but there are some who would consider themselves otherwise. Gods like
Sarenrae,
Iomedae, and
Trudd all have executor dragon allies, acting as either generals in their godly armies, bodyguards, heralds, or as loyal retainers in the gods’ efforts on Golarion. In some instances, executor dragons choose instead to align themselves with the deities who are not of Heaven, but instead have other divine allies.
Psychopomps speak of one executor dragon that serves
Urgathoa as both bodyguard and pet, gorging itself at the endless feasts that Urgathoa holds nearly daily.

WyrmwraithDragons come in myriad forms, with many having magical abilities or connections to magic. Some dragons draw greater power from magic than others, allowing them to manifest abilities or alter their physiques with prolonged exposure to magic. These dragons become more powerful as they age and strengthen their connections with their magical origins. Scholars debate the classification of these dragons, with some preferring the name magical dragons and others using traditional dragons due to their connection to specific magical traditions. Regardless of their names, these dragons share a number of characteristics: their ability to tap into magical energies, intensified might and cunning as they grow older, and an inclination to hoard vast amounts of treasure and wealth.
Draconic Spellcasters
Each dragon features a sidebar on spellcasting dragons of that type. To make a dragon spellcaster, remove the dragon's Draconic Frenzy and Draconic Momentum abilities, and give them the spells outlined in their sidebar. You can swap out any number of these with other spells, provided you keep the same number of spells for each rank. You might also want to increase the dragon's Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma modifier by 1 or 2 to reflect their mastery of magic.
