I was joking about Varys. I just think a passenger compartment might be helpful to transport people, or prisoners, should it prove necessary.

Done. Forgot to check the damage output.
I already slashed his BAB to 3.5 values, as PF told me he should get BAB +20. Toned down STR to 33 and added the additional fire damage, as that should mostly balance each other out with the lowered BAB.
Forgot his WIS bonus. Though there isn't terribly much stuff that targets Will-saves that could actually affect him in the first place.
Done.
Do you have a suggestion? I think +50% is the customary limit.
Do you mean for the breathweapon? As Inferno is 1/day anyway.
I only caclulated with 80.
And here we have something to sink them into. Going to lower some other stuff a bit.
What do you think about adding Frightful Presence? It's nothing that would really affect relevant foes, but it would scare off chaff.
Switched Pounce for Hover. Unless you have a good feat to take it's place?
Left in AA though, as it also gives a few very minor bonuses and increases his speed for a short while.

In general I'm not a fan of a passenger compartment. I'd rather just make a saddle or something.

It would be really odd to have a passenger compartment in a construct that has "constantly leaking Searing fire" as a feature.It would be in the part not filled with Widfire...
Viserys' level up should be settled now. Here's the final tally from this morning before we started voting on other stuff.
Dragon's Roar clearly won.

So it'll be even more of a surprise when a squad of Inquisition heavy hitters hop out of the Harbinger to round up the lawbreakers!

Yeah, can only reuse them after 3d4 rounds.
2 per HD, +2 INT, times 23 (as he has 20 HD).
Nono, seriously, STR 30 and the fire attack is already pushing very much, and the fire attack should only get in if the bites don't deal 1.5x STR.
15 BAB + 10 STR comes out to +25 attack bonus, which is plenty good.
I'd go with:
Melee 3 bite +25 (2d8+10 + 1d6), 2 wings +20(1d8+5 + 1d6), tail slap +20 (2d6+5 + 1d6)
Where 1d6 is searing fire damage.
You gave him +80 bonus HP from construct size... why? It should be +40. His DR is supposed to compensate for his low HP. His should be 155.
I suppose you could up his HD to 24 or so, bringing his HP to 177, I believe. Would up the BAB by 3, bringing it to the sort-of-too-high +28 to hit.
I'd probably make his DR/Valyrian Steel, if he is made out of the stuff. I wouldn't change the DR if you upped his HD.

As he is Huge, it's at least 4,000 lb of VS or 80 HD of Fiends.

That seems very little for a Huge Dragon. That's less than an average pickup truck.

We should be able to fill in the remainder with Adamantine, Mithral, Dreamstone, and Purified Living Brass.

His BAB is pretty anemic for his CR. A CR 14 PF Adult Red has BAB +17 and STR 31. Even a CR 13 Iron Golem has BAB +18 with STR 32.
All that damage means squat if he doesn't hit anything at his CR and you can't just buff him.
To get his HP closer to the suggested value without adding even more HD. Most PF constructs have grossly higher HD at their CR then what the table suggests.
Well, I certainly could.

Thing is, it doesn't really matter what his BAB is, he makes six naturals attacks (if you axe the claws). What matters in the end is his total attack bonus.
Most golems have a lot of HD, because they need to have a reasonably decent HP as the one real way of facing them is melee. It confers them pretty high attack values, but it's important noting they usually only make the two slams.

If we want massive quantities of Valyrian Steel, we should look for the Leyline Pylons.
You have my vote on this. The Little Valyrians will be ecstatic at least. More so, that we still don't know who the hell is the Fourth Essarian sleeper!!!!

I wouldn't bring the Iron Golems, personally. They're a major hassle for transportation.

@Goldfish should we bring Argus since he is our highest level minotaur and has natural ability to deal with any mazes we come across? Also would be nice to bring him along in general to interact with him.
Not sure we should bring Seeker unless there is a benefit from doing so, like he acts as a key to security systems or something but our bloodline is better than that.
Maybe bring Fury for ability to see through things in general and fly easily in environment since used to hell?

Argos doesn't have any available days for us to assign.
That's exactly why I figured it would be a good idea to bring the Seeker, on the off chance we come across something that responds favorably to such Bio-Constructs.
We're bringing three Erinyes; Mereth, Leto, and our future Paladin of Law.

[X] Place the Seeker in a Smoky Confinement bottle and take one of the newly enchanted Whispering Braziers which have not yet been assigned.
-[X] From the armory, equip Dany and Tyene with the Staves of Swarming Insects, Mereth with the Wand of Dispel Magic we acquired from the recently captured Erinyes, and Richard with the Minor Cloak of Displacement.
-[X] Finish distributing the newly enchanted equipment to everyone going on the expedition to Valyria. Full list of relevant gear can be found HERE.
