Dragonborn - Gem

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 gem dragonborn taking on blue, purple 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. Gem dragonborn tend to feature crystaline structures, usually on their heads, scales or limbs.
Gem dragonborn have a breath weapon that expells a 15ft cone of energy.
