Homebrew Dragontaur (improved) Species Details
It is unclear where Dragontuars come from or how they are born in large tribes deep in the wilds so it's a rare sight for a normal human to see, raised, and taught by their parent and other Centaurs. Dragontuars growing up are just as wild as their ancestry some tending to be more brutal than others. Being brought up usually as hunters or warriors, due to their fierce looks and power they tend to be pursued easily to join other races as guardians or tend to devolve into something else..
Age
Young Dragontuars grow quickly. They walk hours after being born like Dragonborn, attain the size and development of a 10-year-old human child by the age of 3, but reach Adulthood by 18. They live to be around 70.
Alignment: Dragontuars are extreme to their wild nature, choosing where one's Alignment choices are based on another strength and will, they can be loyal guardians or feral beasts devolving into that like Dracotuars

Dragontaur (improved) Traits
As a Dragontaur, you have the following racial traits.Hybrid Nature
You have two creature types: humanoid and monstrosity. You can be affected by a game effect if it works on either of your creature types.
Size
Your size is Medium.
Speed
Your walking speed is 40 feet.
Charge
If you move at least 20 feet straight toward a target and then hit it with a melee weapon attack on the same turn, roll the weapon’s damage dice twice and add them together. Once you use this ability, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest.
Equine Build
You count as one size larger when determining your carrying capacity and the weight you can push or drag.
In addition, any climb that requires hands and feet is especially difficult for you because of your equine legs. When you make such a climb, each foot of movement costs you 4 extra feet instead of the normal 1 extra foot.
Claws of fury
Your dragon claws are natural weapons you are proficient in and can use to make unarmed strikes with your two front Claws. If you hit with them, they do 1d6 + Strength modifier in Slashing damage. If a successful attack is made with the back feet 1d6 + Strength modifier in bludgeoning damage, the target must make a DC 10 Strength saving throw or be pushed back 5 ft. Movement in this way does not provoke any attacks of opportunity.
Natural Affinity
Your fey connection to nature gives you an intuitive connection to the natural world and the animals within it. You therefore have proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: Animal Handling, Medicine, Nature, or Survival.
Draconic Ancestry
Draconic Ancestry due to the scales on the lower half choose from the Dragonborn Ancestry and you will have resistance to that colors breath attack
Centaur Weakness
While there are surely advantages to being a hybrid, there are several ways in which the dragon body of the dragontaur is a detriment to the humanoid half.
- As you lack the lower body of a humanoid, you are unable to wear humanoid armor below the belt (ex: leggings, greaves, or boots).
- Due to the larger size of your lower half, any fall damage taken is doubled.
- Unless your dragon-like feet are in some way obscured, you have disadvantage on Stealthchecks when walking on hard surfaces, such as stone, brick, or glass.
