You have rough, scaly skin. When you aren't wearing armor, your AC is 13 + your Dexterity modifier. You can use your natural armor to determine your AC if the armor you wear would leave you with a lower AC. A shield's benefits apply as normal while you use your natural armor.
Weighted Wings
You have a flying speed of 25 feet. You must be in a space wide enough to accommodate your wingspan to fly, and your wingspan is equal to twice your height. You cannot fly if you are wearing heavy armor, armor you are not proficient with, or a backpack not specially tailored for your wings. You cannot wear nonmagical armor that is not tailored to accommodate your wings and tail.
Due to the weight of your wings, you need adequate momentum to stay airborne. You fall to the ground at the end of your turn unless you move at least half your fly speed during your turn.
Hoarder
Due to your draconic blood, you always know the exact amount of gold within a pile or hoard within your sight, as well as the exact monetary value of any non-magical object that you can see within 5 feet of you.
If you cast a spell with a material component with a gold cost, you can instead substitute the component for an amount of gold equal to the gold cost. The money is consumed and disappears when you do so.
