Half-Dragon

Half-Dragons

Reworked By: MissingPath

Half-Dragons are the byproduct from when a humanoid creature is born with Draconic features. Whether they are from one parent being directly a Dragon or if they manifested these features from their bloodline or being in close proximity with Dragons. Any humanoid creature can be a half dragon though normally it is Humans mixed with a Draconic Ancestry.

Ability Score Increase.  One ability of your choice increases by 2, and another ability of your choice increases by 1. Or you can have three ability scores of your choice increase by 1.

Age.  Half-Dragons reach adulthood by 18, and live to be around 150.

Languages.  You can speak, read, and write Common, and Draconic.

Alignment.  Half-Dragons tend towards extremes, making a conscious choice for one side or the other in the cosmic war between good and evil (represented by Bahamut and Tiamat, respectively). Though sometimes their more human nature shines through, allowing for more neutral Half-Dragons to be born.

Size.  Half-Dragons are taller and heavier than humans, standing well over 6 feet tall and averaging almost 250 pounds. Your size is Medium.

Speed.  Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Draconic Ancestry.  Choose one type of dragon type from the Draconic Ancestry table. Your breath weapon and Resistance is determined by the dragon type, as shown in the table below.

Damage Resistance.  You have resistance to the damage type associated with your draconic ancestry.

Breath Weapon.  You can use your bonus action to exhale a breath of destructive energy.  When you use your breath weapon, each creature in the area of the exhalation must make a saving throw, the type of which is determined by your draconic ancestry.  The DC for this saving throw equals 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus.  Dealing 2d6 damage on a failed save, and half as much damage on a successful one.  The damage increases to 3d6 at Level 6, 4d6 at Level 11, 5d6 at Level 16, and 6d6 at Level 20.  After you use your breath weapon, roll a d6.  On a 6, you recharge another use of your Breath Weapon.  Upon reaching level 11 it recharges on a 5 or 6. Otherwise, you regain your Breath Weapon on a short or long rest.

Draconic Lineage. Your Draconic Lineage manifested in many different ways. You may choose one of the following Traits to gain access to:

* Draconic Senses: Your Draconic Lineage manifested in your senses, granting you better senses.

As well as gaining a blindsight within 10 feet of you.
* Draconic Flight: Your Draconic Lineage manifested wings that are always present on your back. They are weaker than normal Dragon’s wings but they get the job done. You gain a Fly speed of 30 feet and take half damage from fall damage.
