Metallic Dragon Overview 
 [1] 
Metallic dragon is a classification of dragon found in the role playing game Dungeons & Dragons. In this setting metallic dragons are of good alignment.[2] Bahamut is the deity of good-aligned dragons and metallic dragons, and currently the only known Platinum dragon in existence. Metallic dragons have played a large role in D&D's various monster compilation books, and for most of the game's history five main types - brass, copper, bronze, silver, and gold - were presented as roughly analogous to the five types of chromatic dragons. The fourth edition Icon External Link.svg of the game's second Monster Manual substituted iron and adamantine dragons for brass and bronze,[3] and released the latter dragons in a later book alongside cobalt, mercury, mithral, orium, and steel dragons.
