examples:
Lighning dragon is Yellow and instead of fire, it breaths lightning like the dragons at drake valley where you get the red tearstone ring.
Fire, would be the normal dragon, spit fire blablabla.
Magic would make you blue and crystallized like Seathe, and instead of fire breath, you have the White Dragon Breath.
Water would make you able to swim, like areas you can only get to if you are a water/ice dragon. (and things like that, areas that you can only get to if you have certain covenant tools/upgrades, that would make covys more interesting.) and you can go underwater and fight special enemies and you can shoot ice or water out of your mouth and can be more resistant to flames but weaker to lightning.
Chaos dragon could be black with red eyes and a red mouth, being this could boost your pyromancy or make you more resistant to fire weapons, and weaker to water/ice weapons(if they add those, which I think would be cool). and your fire is bigger and looks more menacing and more red, and does more damage than any other dragon fire, but can also damage your phantom's and it drains a little bit of your hp.
A holy dragon could be all white and boosts your miracles and its breathe could actually HEAL allys!
note: when I say the dragons look different, they are different colors and stuff, but their physique are also different, like the water/ice dragon would have fin's instead of wings, and the magic dragon would be skinnier and not as bulky since it is a mage dragon(and with crystals on it's body in the magic dragon+1 path), the lighning dragon could have lightning surging through it's body for an added effect, and the chaos dragon could have small flames constantly coming out of its eyes/mouth. And every dragon type has wings that let you fly for 5-15 seconds depending on how high your rank is in the covenant.
