Homebrew Faerie Dragonborn Species Details
Faerie Dragonborn look very much like the other Dragonborn who stand erect in humanoid form. They however lack the butterfly-like wings of their ancestors. They have a bright set of scales with hues that change color as they age. They are small and thinly built, rarely reaching higher than 6 feet. Their hands and feet are lined with talon-like crimson claws - with four fingers and a thumb on each hand.

Fae Ancestry

Shimmering Cloud
Whereas other dragonborn are able to spew fire or breath lightning, the fae magic running within you limits that ability, though not without gifting you a new boon. As an action, you release a puff of shimmering gas to one target within a 30 foot radius, this target must succeed a Wisdom Saving throw (The Dc of the saving throw is 8 + your constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus). A creature that fails the save takes is Restrained until the start of your next turn.This number of target increase by 1 at 11th, and 1 at 16th level for a maximum of 3 targets.
You can use your Shimmering Cloud a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Iridescent Scales
Due to fae magic running through your blood, you gain innate spell casting. You know the Minor Illusion Cantrip. When you reach 3rd level, you can cast the Invisibility spell once with this trait and regain the ability to do so when you finish a long rest. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells.
Languages
Due to your draconic heritage, as well as fae magic running through your blood, you can speak Common, Sylvan and Draconic.
