Platinum Dragonborn in Dungeons & Dragons 5e

Platinum Dragonborn

When the material plane faces dire circumstances, Bahamut may lift his moratorium to call upon willing creatures to once again sacrifice their bodies to protect the realm on his behalf. These creatures, while not originally dragonborn, take on the traits and power of Bahamut in order to right the wrongs of the world.

Description:
The Rite of Rebirth is the only true way to create a Platinum Dragonborn. Due to the propagation of dragonborn in the world, the ritual was deemed unnecessary and discarded by most of the ancient dragons. The ancient ones would only take on new devotees to undergo the ritual if they believed there a chance to create the most powerful Dragonborn, the Platinum.   Adventurers looking to harness the power of Bahamut must journey to find an ancient metallic dragon willing to impart Bahamut's blessing and perform the ritual to change your humanoid form into a dragonborn.   Once the Rite of Rebirth has concluded, the adventurer find their bodies change significantly over the course of the ritual. While the adventurer's appearance would vary from one to the other, generally they would take on the scales of Bahamut, large wings, and a breath attack. Some anomalies exist in the ritual such as loss of voice, nightmares of the past left behind, or loss of memory. These would pass in time.
