A long time ago in the late 1980s a group of adventures took on a few dragons. They were successful and turned the dragons hides into armor. Blue dragon armor provides an armor bonus and protection from electrical damage. Wonderful!
Decades later I come across this TikTok video

Dragon Magazine #344 "Official Answers to your questions"
Which led to a conversation with a friend.
Imagine introducing an opponent that is high level and able to resurrect the armor.
If the armor is just laying around it seems simple enough. A dragon is resurrected!
But what if the armor is worn?
Does the armor become a dragon?
Does the wearer, already enveloped in the armor become enveloped in the dragon?! Having to fight their way out from the inside. Dying due to lack of air and whatever damage the dragon deals.
Does the wearer become some sort of were-dragon? Human at times, dragon at others.
Does the wearer become the dragon? Mind melded into the great wyrm! Now to live and die as a dragon.
Remember the 'rules' are only guidelines!
