|}


'''Proficiencies:''' Half-dragons gain proficiency with all simple weapons.

'''Abilities (Ex):''' Each time you take a level in half-dragon, your ability scores increase as indicated on the table.

'''Multiattack:''' At 1st level, you gain Multiattack as a bonus feat.

'''Breath Weapon (Su):''' As soon as you take a level in half-dragon, you gain the ability to make breath weapon attacks. The energy type of your breath weapon is that of your chosen energy resistance for half-dragon. If you chose fire, cold, or acid, your breath weapon comes as a 15 ft cone. If you chose electricity, your breath weapon comes as a 30 ft line. At character level 9, the area of your breath weapon doubles, making it a 30 ft cone or a 60 ft line.

The damage of your breath weapon starts at 1d8. At each even character level, the damage increases by an additional 1d8 (so it's 2d8 at 2nd, 3d8 at 4th, and so on). It allows a Reflex save for half damage at DC 10 + 1/2 character level + Constitution modifier, and it requires 1d4 rounds to recharge after each use. You are always immune to your own breath weapon.

'''Blindsense (Ex):''' At 2nd level, you gain some of the pinpoint senses of a true dragon, gaining blindsense to 15 ft. At character level 8, this improves to blindsense 30 ft, and it extends even further to 60 ft at character level 15.

'''Tail Slap (Ex):''' You dig deeper into your draconic heritage. At 2nd level, you grow a draconic tail and gain a secondary tail slap attack (1d8 + 3/2 Strength for a Medium character). The damage of this tail advances by one effective size category at 8th and 16th character levels.

'''Spellcasting or Invoking:''' At 3rd level, you may select a spontaneous arcane casting class you possess and gain an increase in caster level, new spells per day, and new spells known (if applicable) as if you had gained a level in that class. Alternatively, you may gain an increase in caster level, new invocations, and breath weapon damage as if you had gained a level in dragonfire adept, as long as you already have at least one level in the class. If you don't possess any spontaneous arcane spellcasting classes or levels in dragonfire adept, you instead gain an effective level of sorcerer spellcasting, which stacks with any other sources of sorcerer casting you may have or gain. This feature does not advance or grant you any class features of whatever class it is you advance beyond spellcasting/invoking (such as familiar progression or breath effects).

'''Wings (Ex):''' At 3rd level, you grow a pair of wings, gaining a fly speed of 60 ft with average maneuverability. You can still fly at 40 ft (average) while wearing medium armor or carrying a medium load, but you cannot fly at all with heavy armor/a heavy load. This also grants you a pair of secondary wing attacks (1d4 + 1/2 Strength for a Medium character) that you may use even while flying. The damage of your wings advance by one effective size category at 8th and 16th character levels.

'''Flyby Attack:''' At level 3, you gain Flyby Attack as a bonus feat.


==Kobold==

{|border="3" align="center" style="text-align:left;"
|+http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/rodragon_gallery/94135.jpg
|-
|'''Type:'''||Humanoid (dragonblood, kobold, reptilian)
|-
|'''Size:'''||Small
|-
|'''Speed:'''||30 ft land speed. Though kobolds are Small, they can scurry about just as quickly as a Medium character.
|-
|'''Special Senses:'''||Darkvision 60 ft
|-
|'''Ability Adjustments:'''||+2 Dexterity, +2 Charisma, -2 Strength
|-
|'''Primary Features:'''||<u>Sleight Build:</u> The physical stature of kobolds lets them function in many ways as if they were one size category smaller. Whenever it is advantageous for him, a kobold is considered one size category smaller for the purposes of special abilities and combat maneuvers that depend on size (like the ''mighty throw'' maneuver) as well as checks that are subject to a size modifier (like Hide checks). In addition, a kobold can also count as one size category smaller when "squeezing" through tight spaces. Finally, he may use weapons designed for creatures of a size category smaller without penalty, though his size and reach remain that of his actual size. This trait stacks with effects that would change his size category.<br><u>Natural Weapons:</u> Kobolds have a pair of primary natural claw attacks (1d4 + Strength) as well as a secondary natural bite attack (1d3 + 1/2 Strength). At 6th level, he gains Multiattack as a bonus feat, allowing him to attack with his bite with only a -2 attack penalty. He gains Improved Multiattack at level 11, removing the penalty altogether. If he already has a feat from another source before he would gain that feat here, he instead gains a bonus feat of his choice. <br><u>Scaly Hide:</u> Kobolds have tough scales fortifying their skin, giving them a +1 natural armor bonus to AC. This bonus increases to +2 at level 6, +3 at level 12, and +4 at level 18.
|-
|'''Secondary Features:'''||<u>Draconic Resistances:</u> Kobolds are indeed descended from dragons, so thus they gain some of the same resistances that dragons do. At 1st level, a kobold gains a +2 racial bonus on saves vs magical sleep and paralysis effects. This improves to +4 at level 7, +6 at level 13, and total immunity to those effects at level 19.<br><u>Mining Tools:</u> Kobolds automatically have Martial Weapon Proficiency with the light pick and the heavy pick.<br><u>Trapsmith:</u> Kobolds get a +2 racial bonus to Craft (Trapmaking), Disable Device, and Search. This increases to +3 at 4th level, +4 at 8th level, +5 at 12th level, +6 at 16th level, and +7 at 20th level.

|'''Size:'''||Medium
|-
|'''Speed:'''||30 ft land speed
|-
|'''Special Senses:'''||Low-Light Vision

|'''Ability Adjustments:'''||+2 Charisma
|-
|'''Primary Features:'''||<u>Blood Quickening:</u> Each day, a spellscale can undergo one of the following draconic meditations to gain a benefit over the course of that day. At 10th level, he instead chooses two meditations to undergo each day.
:'''Aasterinian''': The spellscale gains a bonus to initiative checks equal to half his character level (min 1) and a +10 ft bonus to all speeds.

:'''Bahamut''': Twice this day, the spellscale can choose to fortify a spell against evil, causing it to act as if empowered against evil creatures (this does not stack with regular empower).
:'''Chronepsis''': Five times this day, the spellscale can apply the Silent Spell metamagic feat to a spell without increasing its casting time or effective spell level.
:'''Falazure''': The spellscale gains 3 temporary hit points per spell level whenever he casts a spell. Temporary hit points gained this way do not stack and last only until the end of the encounter.

|-
|'''Secondary Features:'''||<u>Spontaneity:</u> More than anything else, spellscales are renowned for their spontaneity. At the beginning of each day, when a spellscale performs his meditations, he chooses a single skill in which he is trained. He gains a +2 racial bonus to that skill for the day, which increases to +3 at 4th level, +4 at 8th level, +5 at 12th level, +6 at 16th level, and +7 at 20th level. At 7th level, he chooses two skills to receive this bonus each day instead, and at 14th level he chooses three skills each day.
