In regards to items that give resistant to dragon breath (ie: Dragon Scale Mail) does it give resistance to just dragon breaths or does this also include other dragon breaths moves such as Half-Dragons?
The text on the item reads: You have Advantage on saving throws against the breath weapons of Dragons
As far as I can tell, because Half-Dragons are considered Humanoid creature type, it doesn't apply. Creatures with the Dragon creature type that have a Breath Weapon are justified to use it against however.
Just as a side note - I would check this with your DM. In my campaign at least a half dragon is still a dragon as far its breath weapon is concerned so it would apply. It would even apply to the breath weapons of Dragonborn as that too is from their draconic ancestry. No one has ever asked about breath attacks from a draconic sorcerer but is more of a spell than an ancestry thing so probably not.

It says dragons so I would say it only works on dragons.
