Change Shape.
The dragon magically takes the shape of a humanoid or beast or changes back into its true form. It reverts to its true form if it dies. Any equipment it is wearing or carrying is absorbed or borne by the new form (dragons choice). In the new form the dragons stats are unchanged except for its size. It can't use Spit Frost Breath Weapons Tail Attack or Wing Attack except in dragon form. In beast form it can attack only with its bite and claws if appropriate to its form. If the beast form is Large or smaller the reach of these attacks is reduced to 5 feet. In humanoid form it can attack only with its rapier.
