Draconic Lineage

Draconic Powers


Draconic Powers

Partial lineage

Dragons were a massive malevolent presence before the Deities interjected their will on the world. Dragons, now, are much rarer and have less of a presence, but they are still incredibly powerful. They are sometimes known to even bestow their gifts of power on a family.

These families enjoyed incredible abilities, but were ostracized by societies due to their willingness to be friendly with the ancient menace. Most cultures will degrade and strip the rights of those with this lineage and will not likely be trusted.

While those that bear a Draconic Lineage will look physically similar to their non-draconic ancestors, they might not bear the full abilities of those not blessed by the dragons. All Half-Draconics are fully capable of practicing Incantation Magic. They are, however, incable of recieving power from any deity.

It is rather obvious when someone is decended from a Draconic Lineage. Their eyes, hair, skin, scales, and/or feathers all take a similar color to the style of dragon they get their powers from.
