As you play me, add the Baron Pit battlefield token to the board if it's not there already. If you do, I enter there. (It has "Units can move here from anywhere.") I can't be chosen by enemy spells and abilities. Other friendly units have +2 Might.

Can I pay Dragon Roost's cost to play Perched Grimwyrm there if I haven't conquered it this turn?
No — "can't" beats "can." Perched Grimwyrm can't be played anywhere but a battlefield you've conquered this turn, and Dragon Roost's permission can't overcome that restriction; the play is undone in the legality check. Baron Nashor is different because his ability is a delayed replacement effect ("I enter there") that replaces the entry event itself, which gets around play-location restrictions; Dragon Roost only grants permission on play location.
