Running Gold Dragon Wyrmling in an encounter

As a CR 3 threat worth 700 XP, Gold Dragon Wyrmling is a fair challenge for a party of four at a comparable level. With no legendary actions it works best in numbers or paired with support, where its CR 3 rating won't be burned down in a single round. Use the XP value with the encounter builder to slot it into a balanced fight.
