Dragon Blood Characters

Basic Information

Anatomy

Humanoid, with reptilian features and a reptilian skull. Some may have hair, others may have feathers.
The young appear to be elf-blooded humans (humans with much less elven ancestry than the Half-Elves) with pointed ears and slightly narrowed faces.

Biological Traits

They tended to live to be several centuries, if left to live naturally. Unfortunately, their ties to Dragons have resulted in them being hunted down and slaughtered in the current era.

Typically, a Dragonborn ranged from 6 feet to 7 feet in height, and weighs between 200-260 pounds. Their scales vary based on what kind of Dragonborn they are, and bloodlines determine if they have hair, whiskers, feathers, webbings, or scales alone.

Genetics and Reproduction

Born, not hatched, after a seven month gestation period.

Growth Rate & Stages

They are usually born of more mortal-appearing form, and as they age, they take on more dragon-like features. Their mortal-like skin tone is directly related to the light-dark hue of their scales

Biological Cycle

By age 16, they start to develop patches of scales, though by age 20, those patches are too large to hide and from 20-25 their bodies begin to shift and mold itself into a dragonic form.

Additional Information

Dragonborn, like the Dragonkin, tend to be of stronger magical inclinations. They are like their Dragon ancestors in regards to how many of them wind up as spellcasters.

Long sleeves, high collars, the Dragonborn mostly dress in full-covering garments out of habit from covering up their scales when younger.

Dragonborn themselves are a taboo, seen as the children of Dragons who sought to usurp the gods of the world.
