Awarding Experience (CWS)

__TOC__
Dragon PCs need a lot of experience points to advance a level, as well as a lot of treasure. How much experience and treasure a DM decides to award depends on how many adventures he or she wants to run per dragon age category. An average advancement pace would be four to six adventures per age category, though advancement might be even slower at the higher ages. In addition to standard awards for defeating opponents, DMs should provide story awards as outlined in the DMG but using these point values. 
Typical story awards often range from 15 to 25 percent of what a midsized dragon PC needs to advance a level. Using the copper dragon experience track as a base, a story award for hatchling PCs should range from 10,000 to 16,000 XP. After 1st level, an average story award should range from 80,000 to 125,000 XP.
