Type

Extraordinary, racial

Exclusivity Dragon only

Attributes

  • Rage: a rarely-invoked, powerful, costly energy source.
  • Curiousity: applies mainly to the young (read: PCs). When not satisfied, threatens to derail attention and force you to examine interesting things.

Energy Sources

All dragons have innate power, over and above their physical characteristics.

(Dragons will get Mana, Qi, etc, depending on subrace.)

Skill Uses

  • For each rank of the skill, you may also take one of the following boons:
    • +1 to any ability score
    • +1 innate DR (stacks with armor and spells)
    • +5 resist (fire) (doubles each time)
    • etc
    • Diminishing returns?

Note: this is probably going away if/when skill ranks do.

Breath Weapon

All dragons can breathe fire.

  • Breath of Fire: At-will, std, cone 5+1/skill point or line 10+2/skill point; 1d8+skill mod fire damage. Costs 1 Rage.
    • Each additional point of Rage spent adds 1d8 damage.

Shifting

By default, no shifting.

  • Level 3: claws and fangs.
  • Level 5: wings for gliding, occasional enlargement.
  • Level 10: wings for short-duration flight, occasional full-dragon.
  • Level 15: wings for any flight, more reliable full-dragon.
  • Level 20: full-dragon at will.

High Rage values can force a draconic shift without PC control.

Feats

General

  • Natural Armor: Gain DR 1. Stacks with armor. This feat is stackable, but cannot exceed 3 stacks per level.
