Homebrew Faerie Dragonborn Species Details

Faerie Dragonborn, as their name suggests, are Dragonborn that are descendent from the small and mischievous Faerie Dragons. Faerie Dragonborn, like their larger kin, resemble bipedal humanoid dragons without wings or tails, but are much smaller, typically standing between 3 and 4 feet tall. Unlike their larger kin, who vary in scale hue based on the type of Dragon from which they descend, Faerie Dragonborn scales change color as they age. 

Red 5 years or less
Orange 6–10 years
Yellow 11–20 years
Green 21–30 years
Blue 31–40 years
Indigo 41–50 years
Violet 51 years or more
 
Faerie Dragonborn tend to be care-free and mischievous creatures, typically having chaotic natures. Their tendency to use their innate magical abilities to deceive and play pranks on others has given them a reputation of being untrustworthy, even though there are some exceptions among the race. 

Faerie Dragonborn Traits

Your draconic heritage manifests in a variety of traits you share with other dragonborn.

Faerie Flight

Starting at 3rd level, you can use a bonus action to cause shimmering spectral butterfly winds to sprout from your back for 1 minute. For the duration, you gain a flying speed of 50 feet. Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest.

Faerie Magic

Your faerie dragon ancestry grants you innate magical abilities. You know the minor illusion cantrip. Starting at 3rd level, you can cast the color spray spell at 1st level with this trait without requiring a material component. Starting at 5th level, you can cast the mirror image spell with this trait. Starting at 7th level, you can cast the major image spell at 3rd level with this trait. Once you cast color spray, mirror image, or major image with this trait, you can’t cast that spell with it again until you finish a long rest. You can also cast any of those spells using any spell slots you have of the appropriate level.

Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells when you cast them with this trait.

Faerie Invisibility

As a bonus action, you can make you and everything you are holding or carrying become invisible until your concentration ends (as if concentrating on a spell), you attack, make a damage roll, or force someone to make a saving throw. Starting at 10th level, this invisibility ends only when your concentration ends.

You can use this trait a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Euphoria Breath

When you take the Attack action on your turn, you can replace one of your attacks with an exhalation of a puff of euphoria gas at one creature within 5 feet of you. The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC = 8 + your Charisma modifier + your proficiency bonus), or for 1 minute, the target can’t take reaction and must roll a d6 at the start of each of its turns to determine its behavior during the turn:

1–4. The target takes no action or bonus action and uses all of its movement to move in a random direction.

5–6. The target doesn’t move, and the only thing it can do on its turn is repeat the saving throw, ending the effect on itself on a success.

You can use your Euphoria Breath a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Magic Resistance

You have advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.
