Not by template, but I used a prestige-class for it a couple times. Can be a fun kit to play with and depending on the campaign/characters there's a lot of easy character arcs you can reach for to make for a fun story and personal side-quests along with your main quest storyline.

First one was an archer in the kingdom's anti-mage paladin squad, met the party right as sorcererous potential was starting to manifest as little defensive buffs easily explained away as entry-level divine guidance. At the end of that arc we had a 6 month downtime between major events, and my character sought out the party after quietly withdrawing from the order under "permanent field operation," with her immediate superiors recognizing her fervor despite the physical corruption. A little scales were hidden easy enough for a while, but active adventuring seemed to be making it worse. Eventually got sniped on a visit to family after learning how to disguise herself magically, an early casualty in a major schism among the anti-mage organization between the "Take out the monsters and demons only" vs the "Kill 'em all and let god sort 'em out" schools of smiting.

Second one got a lot less characterization, but that was more my fault for being a bit less invested in the game. Kingmaker Bard (Arcane Duelist) armed and trained as a warrior/duelist adventuring into the wilderness. Got a lot more warrior and a lot less duelist once the scales and claws started showing up, eventually wound up a flaming full attack blender and damage sink for the other bard in the party (shared damage ring to keep the squishy buff/CC support alive).

I kind of am, although using the method of more or less gaining the template via prestige class. And if you believe the character's story, she's a dragon who was polymorphed into human form by a dire curse from a powerful wizard. ...Or she's just completely nuts and delusional after growing up in a dragon spire and needed to justify not being a dragon to herself via aggressive denial.

Whether the dragon disciple levels represent wriggling out from under a dire curse or not, it's going to be interesting to mess with.

How do you imagine a sorcerer awakening (for lack of better word) their dragon blood?

Would it not be sparked by something obvious, but instead be gradual and unnoticeable until they start growing scales and shit? Would it be some confrontation in their soul/mind or something like that? Something else?

Repeatedly, and also currently.

One of my more memorable characters. Was of a red bloodline, so he gradually grew more aggressive and short-tempered as his powers grew, and more inclined to burning things in combat. He also grew a somewhat irrational hatred of druids as well, though that might have also come from the fact that the party druid was an absolute basket case.

>>49704733
Depends what awakens it.

>>49704516

Post Half-dragons

>>49703243
Some 4E legendary campaign where we played champions of Bahamut.

It quickly became powerwank thanks to a bad DM and everyone agreeing that it's more fun to compete in who gets to make the most broken character.

>>49704733
Some sort of stresfull trauma if inherited powers.

Otherwise drinking Dragon blood or eating Dragon flesh.

I had my swashbuckler gain his sorcerer level in a RP episode where he won a Dragon heart in a grand arena tournament.

In fact whenever someone intends to multiclass I force them to RP it.

For example a Ranger during his downtime finds a martial arts manual , cross references it with his expirience and practices with other party members or in the local "fighters guild" (medieval Europe used to have them as a way of entertainment like boxing clubs today) to gain his first monk level..

A half-dragon is one of the setting's BBEG, so as the DM, yes.

>>49703243
No, I'm quite boring in what I play. The oddest thing I've ever played was a gnomish monk who was kicked out because he kept getting high.

>>49703243
No, but now I'm wondering if I should. And what the other half should be.
I mean, human is a classic. And elf is hardly unusual. But dragons fuck everything according to the internet. So why limit myself if I'm already choosing a fantastical half-dragon?

So, what would a half-dwarf half-dragon look like? And how much would they love gold?

Here is an official half dragon from actual D&D books.

>>49708048
That's just a 4e dragonborn that sneaked into a previous edition.

Minor point of discussion; do you think half dragons or dragonborn should have tails? Ever since it was pointed out to me that 4e dragonborn don't have them they've seemed unbalanced to me.

>>49708075
I think it should be random, actually. Trying to invoke Mendellian genetics in a setting with magic is a bit silly, at least for something this specific.

>>49708075
No, that is a half blue dragon from official art. All the other art for half dragons, which im having a hell of a time finding, does the same thing: Monstrous draconic features on a humanoid body. Sometimes they have tails, sometimes they don't. If they are really big, they get wings.

>>49708075
Wait... they don't? I always assumed they did, sorta like Tieflings.

Great, now that's one more thing that's going to be bothering me today....

>>49708075
I say just make them dragons with a giant humanoid torso where the neck would be.

>>49708120
I know some groups just collectively decided that they do and fuck the official artwork.

I mean they do sort of have little stumps IIRC, but they just look better if you give them tiefling tails. Might be fun to give them access to tiefling tail feats too for item retrieval and stuff.

I really don't understand this need for reptilian or reptile like creatures to need tails. Why should it bother you that they don't have one?

It's not like they are actually reptiles, as they have features which are more bird like or mammalian. From milk production, to the hard shells they lay, to their endothermy, they share practically no features besides having scales with reptiles, which even mammals can pull off thanks to pangolins.

Dragon Penis doesn't fit inside non-dragons; non-dragon semen doesn't do anything to female dragons. It is possible for a dragon to shapeshift into a form that is able to interbreed with non-dragons, but the resulting offspring are just the same species as what it transformed into with no draconic boons or malluses. E.g if a dragon shapeshifted into a human to fuck a human, the child would be 100% human. There would be no dragon souls, or anything of that sort. No access to dragon magic. No increased strength or intelligence beyond what the dragon might have given its human form when it was created. Then again, if the dragon chooses to enchant the baby with some spells, it's a different story. This is all in theory, though, because >90% of dragons don't find non-dragons attractive at all.

Gorillas have small dicks. Does that mean you can make half-gorillas with toddlers?

Elf x Human is stupid but at least they share a similar enough body-shape. "Half-Dragons", where the offspring is just a human with some scales, are unjustifiable bullshit.

>>49712889
Not him but:
Because it usually happens while the dragon is still Large sized (around the size of a horse) and in the young age category, while they are just starting to get their urges and are feeling experimental.

>>49713028
Man, someone should write something on the sexual experimentation of dragons.

>>49704733
I had an idea of half-dragons and dragon sorcerers instead are mutated by the draconic influence/blood. Irritable growth of scales and bony protrusions, uneven growth of teeth, mismatched eyes, maybe a tail. Its not a glamorous or evenly.grown look, they're straight up mutants. In the case of sorcerers this mutation flourishes around puberty.

>>49712426
The penis:body size ratio is unusually large for humans iirc. Also it's magic. Maybe dragon reproduction involves the penis casting some sort of bag of holding spell on the penetrated orifice.

>>49707890
Top half dragon, standard mermaid tail.

>>49712889
A dragon might not fit inside a human, but that doesn't mean a human couldn't inside a dragon.

>>49708075
I think the half-dragon template should grant a tail, wings (vestigial at first, growing with level) and horns to the base race, and going full anthro dragon means a half-dragon dragonborn or kobold.
Also there should be an explicit limit of one racial template per character because a half-dragon tiefling like I just described would look ridiculous.

>>49712960
>Does that mean you can make half-gorillas with toddlers?
Of course not you pervert, toddlers are too young to give consent!

Make it like 2e Tiefling traits. Roll on a table.
Other details to roll for: horns (how many and what type), color, feet (talons or human with pointed thick nails), and other odd traits like feathers (feathered reptiles are cool), facial scale formations, etc.
