Cloudwalking (Su)
A very young or older silver dragon can tread on clouds or fog as though on solid ground.
Cold Aura (Su)

creatures within 5 feet of the dragon take 1d6 points of cold damage at
the beginning of the dragon's turn. An ancient dragon's aura extends to
10 feet. A great wyrm's aura damage increases to 2d6. A silver dragon
can suppress or activate this aura at will as a free action.
Fog Vision (Ex)
A juvenile or older silver dragon can see perfectly well in fog and clouds.
Graceful Flight (Ex)
A young or older silver dragon's aerial maneuverability is one step better than normal.

of a cone of cold, a silver dragon can breathe a cone of paralyzing
gas. Creatures within the cone must succeed on a Fortitude save or be paralyzed for 1d6 rounds plus 1 round per age category of the dragon.
