Dragonborn - Chromatic

Dragonborn are humanoid creatures with draconic features, their heads resemble a dragons and they have fine scaled bodies with an almost leathery texture. They are usually quite tall and strongly built, unlike dragons however, they do not have wings or a tail.
Their scales are coloured according to their bloodline, with the majority of dragonborn taking on brown, copper and other dark or muddied colours as a result of generations of interbreeding between these bloodlines. Those with purer bloodlines exhibit more vibrant colourings than their kin echoing the dragons they are historically tied to and gaining powers based on this bloodline.
Chromatic dragonborn have a breath weapon that has a range of 30ft and travels in a 5ft line.
