(4ed by the by).  Now, I am having trouble deciding what classes for what dragons.  Some are...stereotypical some aren't. White Dragon Barbarian Green Dragon Wizard (probably illusion but maybe conjuration) Blue Dragon Paladin Black Dragon Don't know maybe ranger? Red Dragon Don't know, possibly Arcane class, or Martial though the thought of Barbarian has crossed my mind. Other ideas included the White as a shaman, and the Green as a summoner druid.  So what do you guys think, what are good class match ups for the prime five chromatic dragons?

Also, black dragon just screams rogue to me. For the red, maybe fighter or sorcerer (depending on where you go with the blue).  Sorcerer is kind of a classic archetype for dragons (who could cast spells as sorcerers in 3.5), and the red is also the most classic of the chromatics.
