Unfortunately, being a child or descendent of Zeus wouldn’t let you shapeshift. The character in those books who is known to be able to shapeshift, Frank Zhang, can do that because he’s related to an ancient family of shapeshifters (though I can’t remember exact details myself) also, I believe he only turns into normal animals (though I could be wrong.)
Nope! He turns into a dragon. Although, it does take a great deal of effort, and is compared to lifting the maximum amount of weights one can, and to which Leo Valdez answered, I don't lift weights.
YES VALIDATION :)
Edit: Not trying to be rude, just a joke. Realize it could be taken as rudeness.
And Leo was my favorite character from that arc. Worth noting.
Yes, that is mainly what I am saying. We may have had a misunderstanding here (though with the exception of Medea’s dragons, I do believe most of them are wingless) but what I was saying is that you could not have a regular D&d dragon (you used a blue dragon as an example) unless you had reflavored it to fit with Greek dragons.
speaking of dragons, what would be your lore reason for having a character be able to turn into a dragon in the first place, out of curiosity? I’m genuinely curious because it’s a fun concept :>
Well, the idea was that my character would be a descendant of Zeus, and the ability to take on the form of a dragon would be channeling her powers to enter a form better representing the powers of her godly parent. Her scales would probably be golden, maybe some white tinting or framing as well (those are the two colors I remember being associated with Zeus). It was partially based off of the Lost Hero arc (I think it was?), where there is at least mention of a character able to change form (I can't remember details, It's been a while since I read the books).

Wait, so wouldn't it work if my character was descended from a shapeshifting family on one side (her dad) and Zeus descendants on the other (her mom)?
And I think there was a mention of both a dragon form (although that may have been a joke) and a swarm of bees (which is probably just as much of a stretch as a dragon).
Nope, both are correct. Frank turns into both of them. Once in the Son of Neptune, dragon. Blood of Olympus, bees.

Hiya, there! I'm Gonzalo2, but you can just call me Gonz! (Don't ask about what happened to Gonzalo1.) I'm just an ADHD theater nerd who has too much time on my hands and too little sleep! I'm usually at Camp Half-Blood, which I moderate, and have seventeen characters on. Like I said, too much time on my hands, too little sleep.

Hiya, there! I'm Gonzalo2, but you can just call me Gonz! (Don't ask about what happened to Gonzalo1.) I'm just an ADHD theater nerd who has too much time on my hands and too little sleep! I'm usually at Camp Half-Blood, which I moderate, and have seventeen characters on. Like I said, too much time on my hands, too little sleep.
