Thread Title : Polymorphed Bronze Dragon in Human form?

(2nd Ed. AD&D)

     I have a Young Adult Bronze Dragon polymorped (his natural ability) into human form running as a fighter in my players party. 
     I'm wondering how to determine his ability scores, how to draw up his fighter class and what draconic abilities would he be able to use in human form? 
     Basically, how to run a polymorphed dragon in human form?

First, take into account the frequency and power of dragons in your campaign.  The more powerful, mysterious and rare that dragons are, they probably deserve better stats.  
Assuming this is a polymorph (self) version of the change, int/wis/cha could all very well be based upon dragon stats.  As this dragon is a fighter, I would roll/give it physical stats(str/dex/con) appropriate to a fighter in your campaign; perhaps even better.
Not in this case (you stated it was a fighter), the dragon could be a mage or other class (with appropriate stats instead).  If this was a polymorph (other) spell, I would make the dragon roll totally random stats.
Now, if for some reason this happened to be a PC, I would ensure the character kept appropriate stats that would not upset game balance.
