Description

Dragonborn are the offspring of a dragon and any number of lesser races. Alternatively, a Dragonborn may be born of another Dragonborn. Dragon blood does not dilute over generations.

Dragonborn are generally tall, astoundingly muscular reptilian creatures resembling the dragon they were born of. They tend to be a more robust version their non-dragon parent's body type. A dragonborn with a human parent will be around 7 feet tall and wide from muscle mass. Likewise, a Dragonborn born of a Dwarven mother will stand about five feet off the ground (tall for a dwarf) and be absurdly thick-built.

Confusion with Lizardfolk

Since both Dragonborn and Lizardfolk are robust, reptilian looking specimens, they are often confused for one another. More accurately, the less prevalent Dragonborn are confused for Lizardfolk.

There are a few key differences in distinguishing the two. Lizardfolk appear more sleek and streamlined whereas Dragonborn adopt rugged features from their draconic parent like dorsal spikes. Lizardfolk and their shorter, more gracile cousin, Kobolds, have no breasts while female Dragonborn do (although it is unclear whether they are capable of producing milk). Lastly, Dragonborn inherit the scale color of their parent. Colors such as red, gold, and iridescent silver do not occur among Lizardfolk.
