Due to your density, you sink quickly in water and similar liquids. You cannot gain a swimming speed.

Designed to be superior to the dragonborn you are modeled after, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 30 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

When you take a long rest, you must spend at least six hours in an inactive, motionless state, rather than sleeping. In this state, you appear inert, but it doesn't render you unconscious, and you can see and hear as normal.

• You don't need to eat, drink, or breathe.
• You are immune to disease.
• You don't need to sleep, and magic can't put you to sleep.

Your body has dragon-like metal scales. You can use your reaction on your turn to activate your scales, causing them to extend like daggers. Until the start of your next turn you gain resistance to slashing damage.

Since your body needs to maintain upkeep, you go through a process every time you rest in which you shed metal on the inside and it is collected inside your stomach. As a bonus action you can exhale these shards of metal in a 15 foot cone. When you use your shard projection, each creature in the area of the exhalation must make a Dexterity saving throw. The DC for this saving throw equals 8 + your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus. A creature takes 2d6 slashing damage on a failed save, and half as much damage on a successful one.

The damage increases to 3d6 at 6th level, 4d6 at 11th level, and 5d6 at 16th level. After you use your shard projection, you can’t use it again until you complete a short or long rest

Your Constitution, Strength, and Dexterity scores all increase by 1.
