Dragon: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 05:37, 15 March 2024

Note: The PC Dragon race is no longer available. This article applies only to legacy characters.

The Dragon race is currently unavailable. It is highly unlikely to return as a selectable race, and all requests to play a dragon will be denied.

Appearance

In their Humanoid form, Dragons may appear no different from the mortals that they mimic. As their humanoid form is chosen voluntarily, they may appear as having idealized features, and the wisdom, intelligence, and confidence afforded by their nature may make them stand out.

Creating a Dragon on Arelith

Bonus Language: Draconic
Counts as a reptilian race for piety gain calculation.

Character Adjustments

PC Dragons may transform into Dragon shape by using the -polymorph console command.

Dragons will continue to leave Dragon tracks even in their non-Dragon form.

When in Dragon form, Dragon PCs will be treated as a monster race, and receive a warning when approaching a settlement.

Abilities:

+2 Str
+2 Con
+2 Cha
Spell resistance: 11+Level (Capped at 26)
20/- cold resistance
True Seeing (in Dragon Form only)
Dragon Skin PrC feat
+4 ECL

Note - the dragon is Silver by default.

As a Dragon increases in level, he or she will benefit from increased physical statistics while in Dragon form. The Dragon form also increases in size with level, beginning slightly larger than a human, and growing to be larger than a typical house.
