Homebrew Half-Dragon Species Details

History

In some cultures, half-dragons have been seen as creatures blessed by the gods, while in others they’re treated as abominations of natural law. Because of this, they may be surprised by the positive or negative attitude towards them when entering a new town. Half-dragons are incapable of having natural born offspring, leading to the race being incredibly rare in nearly all regions of the world.

Throughout history, half-dragons become trusted sages sought far and wide for their extensive knowledge, while others may become vicious mercenaries feared throughout the countryside. Though many become wanderers searching for many different things,most often their draconic parent, an adventuring life comes as the next logical step to finding what they're looking for.
