Just came up with this question in a game. Would a dragons kidney stone be worth anything? Are there other creatures that would have kidney stones worth a lot?

As far as other creatures, you would want to look for kidney stones from creatures in unique environments. In most earthly mammals, they're composed of (mostly) calcium. Look for things that have kidneys, but either don't have bones as such, or that have bones likely composed of something other than calcium. It would have to be a seriously magical creature, too; something so stuffed full of magic that it literally pees it.

The only thing I can think of off hand that fits all the criteria might be an Aboleth, and you can almost certainly get better components from them.
