Dragonborn - Gem

Gem Dragonborn are a subspecies of Dragonborn with crystalline gem-like bodies instead of scales, suggesting that they are descended from Gem Dragons.
Gem Dragonborn are very rarely seen on Exorsia and are more commonly found on far off planes within the Astral Sea.
Because of their rarity and gem-like appearance, some believe that Gem Dragonborn bring good luck, thus putting them at risk from wealthy collectors.

Appearance:

Dragonborn are bipedal humanoid dragons that usually lack wings, though some do. Gem Dragonborn have crystalline gem-like bodies with Dragon-like heads and tails. Male and female Dragonborn look almost identical, though female Dragonborn tend to be larger and stronger than the males.
Scales: Dragonborn bodies resemble the gems of Amethyst (Purple), Quartz (White), Emerald (Green), Sapphire (Blue) or Topaz (Orange).

Maturity:

Gem Dragonborn mature quickly, they attain the size and development of a 10-year-old Human child by the age of 3, and reach adulthood by 15.
The life expectancy of a Gem Dragonborn is unknown though some records suggest that they can live from over a millenia.

Reproduction:

Dragonborn hatch from eggs. Gem dragonborn are uniquely able to produce an egg asexually without the need for a mate. Gem Dragonborn can produce a single egg approximately every 25 years. This egg must be kept warm for 12 to 18 months before it hatches. If the egg is not kept in the appropriate climate it will hibernate indefinitely until the right conditions are met.
