Homebrew Dragonewt Species Details
Dragonewts are descendants of true dragons, living in their own communities for generations. Communities differ in level of involvement with other races so it's not uncommon for people to have not heard of them. A dragonewt can also be birthed by a humanoid mother and a true dragon father.
Male dragonewts look like lean, muscular dragonlike lizardfolk with a tail, two wings growing from their backs and horns growing from their heads. Their scales are colored based on their draconian blood.
Female dragonewts look mostly human, but with a slender tail, small horns growing from their heads, and two wings that fold against their backs. Some can have scales formed around their hands and feet but it varies. Their hair, horns tail and wings are vibrantly colored based on their draconian blood.

Posted Mar 22, 2021I really like this one more than the others posted. It is fleshed out with rules when creating your character and gives actual benefits for being a particular type of dragon that you can really base your character on. I like the idea Sumnun put in for your racial abilities growing with you, flying and fly speed, draconic enhancement. A baby dragon cant use or control its breath weapon. As it grows it learns to control it.
Resistance to certain magic/effects based on dragon type, love it!! Awesome in certain situations, nothing in others. Like
Sounds good for a fighter or rogue with non magic or feat buffs for additional damage. I mean rogues even more but still lol.
