Half-dragon Species in Scalechanged Legacy | World Anvil

Half-dragon

Half-dragons are magically created by Greatwyrms from dragonfolk whom the Greatwyrms have deemed worthy. Priests who have devoted themselves to the Greatwyrms or warlords who have done great deeds in the service of the empire are the most common candidates. Rarely, a warlock will make a pact with one of the Greatwyrms, or a sorcerer will discover the secrets of their draconic bloodline, each manifesting as a half-dragon.

Half-Dragon Template

When a creature becomes a half-dragon, it retains all its statistics except as noted below. If the creature already has equal or better statistics than an entry below, that statistic does not change.

Armor. The half-dragon gains +1 to their natural armor class.

Senses. The half-dragon gains blindsight with a radius of 10 feet, and darkvision with a radius of 60 feet.

Resistances. If the half-dragon already possesses a Draconic Ancestry, it retains the resistance from that ancestry, otherwise it gains resistance based on the color of the dragon creating it.

Breath Weapon. If the half-dragon already possesses a Draconic Ancestry, it retains the breath weapon from that ancestry, otherwise it gains a breath weapon based on the color of the dragon creating it.

Wings. If the half-dragon already possesses wings and a flying speed, it retains that feature, otherwise it gains wings and a flying speed equal to its walking speed.

Tail. If the half-dragon did not already possess a tail, it gains a tail half as long as the half-dragon is tall. This tail has no mechanical benefit, and while the half-dragon can move it about, it is not prehensile. The tail does not grant any special attacks, however the half-dragon can consider tail slaps and sweeps when describing their normal unarmed strikes.
