Homebrew DragonSprite Species Details

Introductory Paragraph

The introduction of your race should give an overview of what the people of the race are like, where they come from, and where they live. Some of these opening descriptions, like the one for the dwarf, are no longer than a sentence, while others, like the gensai, go on for several paragraphs. Give enough information for a general overview of your race before diving into the details.

Physical Description

Provide at least a paragraph of physical description for your race. Include body types and shape, color options for hair, skin, and eyes, fashion sensibilities, and anything else that sets your race apart from the rest. Start this section with a short heading that let’s players reading the description prepare for what’s ahead and get reminded of the race’s appearance when they come back to it. For instance, the physical description for elves has the header “Slender and Graceful,” which sums up elf physiology quite well. (Use the Header 2 style for this title in D&D Beyond.) These headers are valuable both as a quick summary for the reader but also as a focus for you as you design your new race.

Attitudes and Philosophies

Provide at least a paragraph about the typical attitudes, philosophies, religions, and reasons for adventuring that your race has. How does your race differ from others in these areas? As with the physical description section, add a header to sum-up your race’s attitudes and philosophies.

Other Story Sections

You can choose to add as many other sections as you like to your race’s story. You could add a section about where the race typically lives, like the halfling’s “pastoral pleseantries” section, a section about how your race views other races, like the lizardforlk’s “hapless soft ones” section, or sections about strange customs, unique behaviors, and the like. Add as much description as you like and don’t forget your helpful headers.

Names

After all your story sections are complete, write a final section about your race’s naming conventions and include example names. How many names does a typical member of your race have? Who do they inherit any familial names from? Do they have nicknames? Are their certain sounds or a particular number of syllables these names have?
