If you haven't played a Dragonborn or something similar in dungeons and Dragons or Pathfinder you should definitely give it a try. Can't go wrong with claws and a breath weapon.
“We are the flame of bahamut, forever we shall burn for him!”
Imagine a gold or brass Dragonborn with the “Anvilwrought” gift, and built as a Forge Cleric!
"I'm a DRAGON...RaRwLaLaLaLA!"
Had me rolling! 🤣
Characters I'm debating between for my next campaign, either a bronze dragonborn cleric to bahamut. A silver half-dragon paladin of bahamut, or a kobold celestial warlock of bahamut, the warlock is.my most fleshed out idea, kobold that doesn't want sacrificed to his clan's black dragon master has her prayers answered by a silver dragon in service of bahamut, swears her life to him.
I think thouse could all be fun. The kobolds are fun as expendable characters so making it really weak and then giving it a reason to live, and worship bahamut woulf be really cool. Then you could justify your exsistance as divine intervention
Unearthed arcana added a feat that gives dragonborn wings in 5e. It is only a 20 ft fly speed but it is something.
My dragon born story, We had two dragonborn in one of our games, the players were half siblings in real life so the decided to be half siblings in the game, they were a red and blue dragonborn respectively, so the had the same mother but 2 different dragon fathers... this lady got around exclusively with dragons apparently.
Ha ha thats pretty great, Brin lover of dragons.
So....your guy's characters had a...human mother? You do know that Dragonborn aren't literally half human, half dragon right??? Dragonborn are an actual race, NOT a hybrid race, your backstory sounds like one for Half-Dragons, not Dragonborn
I've got a lvl 4 female dragonborn cleric going in my current campaign wearing full plate with shield + mace or sickle (20 AC) originally in gold (fire cone BW) but since the campaign is going against undead for the adventure, my DM decided it would be radiant instead of fire and the resistence bonus was necrotic instead of fire. So the holy healer godzilla spews sunlight. First fight, I managed to hit 4 baddies at once (2 failed, 2 saved so 2 full dmg, 2 half dmg)... and it's beautiful! The only offensive spell in the kit is Spiritual Weapon (scythe) that floats around and reaps enemies while my she's screaming at enemies with daylight seeping from her mouth. I can't wait for her to level up more and become ungodly. But yeah, the limitation of 1 use per rest of the breath weapon with a super low dmg scaling kinda sucks. I wouldn't mind if it got more uses per rest and a slower dmg increase or no dmg increase as it leveled.
That could be an intersting trade off for the damage. Ive done items that give bonus uses in the past
I'm playing a black dragon born wizard right now! He's a conjuration specialist with almost as much charisma as intelligence.
He must use that fancy scale conditioners.
My character is named Mehen Norixius, a brass, monk Dragonborn! He has a quarter staff, and uses fists. No armor, and left the monastery he grew up in.
I’m 11, by the way. D&D is so fun!
Glad to hear you're enjoying dnd. The character sounds like a lot of fun.
I’m playing a red Dragonborn monk who left his monastery as well. Although I’m the only monster race and all my teammates are humanoid characters (homebrew world where monster races and human races are separated and there’s a lot of racial tension)

So I first thought that my dragon breath move is O.P but then I had to face a shadow from a mirror, I decided to use my breath weapon, I rolled badly, and then that made me realize that the breath weapon move isn't that good.
@@happyrider4343 I really like the breath weapon as a concept but you have to get creative with the execution to make it super effective... ie dragon breath : kiss of death
@@Rookzer0 lol
In the fourth edition, they came up with this really cool dragon (in my opinion) called a Mirage dragon. A dragon that lives in the feywilds blessed with illusion magic and a breath weapon that dealt psychic damage!
If I ever get the chance to be a dragonborn I hope to convince my DM that he/she can have assets from this guy, including three additional spells similar to the Infernal Legacy trait of a tiefling.
Like at first my dragonborn will know the Minor Illusion cantrip at first level. Then at third level, he/she'll know the Sleep spell and then finally at fifth level he/she will get to use Phantasmal Force.
Bit of a stretch, for the average dragonborn, but I find the idea really fun and I hope to use this idea one day for future games
That is a pretty cool way to play it I don't see the bonus canaries being to much of an issue. Might give up the elemental resistance since you'd do physic damage instead.
While not perfect, I think critical role handles Dragonborn well. One subrace, ravenite, is big and strong and captures the strength and power of dragons while the other subrace, draconblood, captures the intelligence and charisma of dragons. I like what WoTC did in Fizbans because it made room for truly unique characters. Sure some of us want to play the big hulking badass dragon but there are those who just want to be a dragon thematically. A Dragonborn bard who integrates their fire or cold breathe into their performances is one example of how Dragonborn can be used outside of the big strong badass archetypes. Or maybe someone wants to replicate a dragon type into playable humanoid form, such as prankster copper Dragonborn or an anthropologist silver Dragonborn.
I once made a blue dragonborn sorcerer (draconic ancestry) multi-class with a fighter (Eldridge Knight). I got him to level 20. He had wings, spells Galore, bound weapons, and a soul familiar. It was a pseudo-dragon named Kaiju. This was my second strongest character.
That sounds pretty dope!
Did he retire, assend or die gloriously?
@@Rookzer0 He's still around, just not as active. Well unless he's needed for an insane quest.
@@Rookzer0 I’m currently playing a “Half-Dragon” (he’s just a dragonborn but he’s 11’7 with wings and a tail) Paladin with a sorcerer multiclass rn he’s level 3
My character is a Blue Dragonborn/Fathomless Warlock that wields the power of Illusion magic and can conjure Elementals. In our campaign our characters have a ultimate attack we can use only once per real life day. My version of this attack is called “Primordial Punisher”.
Nice, that sounds like a fun character and mechanic, nice work
I’m going to play a fizbans gold Dragonborn (half dragon if dm allows it). He’s going to be a fancy lad who drinks tea. He’d use his fire breathe to help make tea and maybe even food if I get chef feat at level 4.
I really thought you were foing to go with tea breath. A earl gray dragonborn
@@Rookzer0ah yes, tea breath, can energize allies with caffeinated black tea or put opponents to sleep with sleepy herbal tea
Another amazing and entertaining vid. Thanks and keep posting!
I made a blue, cowboy like dragonborn wildmagic sorcerer for an one shot. A butch of goblins tried to attack us at night, but they were grouped together so I put them all out with a sleep spell, then next turn fried two with my lightning breath. Great fun. I tried to play him as kind of a merc who always tries to get to know his co-workers in jobs so they can use each others abilities, especially when they only know each other for a short period.
great combo!
My very first character in DnD was a Blue Dragonborn Barbarian. He was absolutely obsessed with his draconic nature going as far as to declare the dragons as the most superior race. He himself tended to act like a dragon choosing to only sleep on a expertly craft blanket of golden mail and was very stingy with his money and how he spent it. Ultimately he did learn polymorph from a Gold Dragoness (whom he later married) to transform into a Blue Dragon. Towards the end of the DnD he was given the role of Dragon God after straight up, walking into heaven, slaughtering all the other gods and forcing the one above all to make him a deity.
Super cool idea, I really like the bed of gold mail, nice touch.
One of my players made a dragonborn paladin in our new campaign. He deals with a lot of prejudice and fear from the public around him and sticks out like a giant sore thumb in the crowds of dwarves ("You don't happen to be one of them fire starters, do you?"), but he's really just a sweet little boy who wants to help people out. Just recently found your videos, they're really inspiring for pc and npc creation!
Great story, thanks for sharing. I think tgose kind of social challenges bring a lot to the game.
My first character was a Dragonborn Eldritch Knight cuz I was 14 and wanted to play a magic warrior XD
My first character was a blue Dragonborn monk. The first thing I did when I saw the race description in the 5E Guide was note that they don’t have tails. So I *of course* gave my Dragonborn a tail, but I also worked it into his backstory of being abandoned at the monastery due to this “birth defect”. The DM would sometimes have NPCs comment on it and if we trying to be incognito, he’d try hiding it under his robes (already being conspicuous enough just being a Dragonborn). He sometimes uses it for slap attacks just to mix things up, and I also headcanon it as being part of his high Acrobatics skill (better balance and all that).
Dragonborn are my favorite race to play in D&D, (well...them and kobolds ^.=.^). The character that I play the most is a dragonborn cleric named Thrazashka.
Lvl 3 dragonborn barbarian homebrewed into a pugilist and it's my first D&D experience.
So much fun.
Sounds awesome. Did you look at brawler for pathfinder
@@Rookzer0 I did not! We've kind of set him up as a barbarian but my punches and kicks do whatever my weapon damage is, he's of copper skin tone so the acid breath is a sweet plus! I ran my first encounter this passed Friday with some friends and now all I can think of is the damn Fire Giant I'm standing in front of currently waiting for next game. 🤣
Love playing dragonborn to use the breath weapon for stupid shit like using the white dragonborns breath to blow frozen wind to propell a ship to great speed, melting the spiderwebs with acid to get line of sight on said spiders, or electrocute the water creatures are standing in for free paralysis. All of these things are dm dependent, but just be creative with it. Don't use it just for damage, and you'll be fine.
Sounds like a grand old time!
I enjoy playing Dragonborn, they're one of the most least used races in my opinion.
I would love to see more of them from my players. I tend to throw in an old timey dried out dragonborn to my npc list whenever I can.
@@Rookzer0 I tend to play more dragonborn in 5e, as nothings more badass than a dragonborn monk fighting ancient green dragon solo. I did that once.
Nice, did you end up doing anything interesting with your natural attacks(Claw and bite) or just used the monk class to augment them?
@@Rookzer0 Well, I basically made that dragon my bitch as I pretty much made the DM at the time waste all of the legendary saves it had. So I basically punched and flurry kicked it to death. I was an Open Hand Monk so I knocked it prone and stunned it. With the final hit with my fist... It went to the Fist of the North Star explosion when it died. But most of the "Moveset" i used was a mix of Ken and Ryu from Street Fighter with some sprinkling of Jin from Tekken
Ha ha awsome!
TFW you realize that the race with the most atheistic/secular culture in the Forgotten Realms somehow makes the best DnD Paladins.
my second dnd character was a dragonborn paladin but tbh i played him more like a fighter anyways bc good lord i did not know what i was doing and neither did anyone else in the group really and that campagin was p short(you'll find out why in a moment) so theres not a lot of stories to pick from but i do remmeber we were on a boat like a galleon or something when our npc companion revealed himself to be the bbeg so ofc i tried attaking him with my greatsword however i missed but i asked the dm if i could still role for damage bc the bbeg was right in front of the ships main mast and that was well within range of my sword so he said sure and ofc i crit so i slapped on a divine smite as well just to see what'd happen and wouldn't you know it it was a double crit which completely severed the ships mast causing it to crash down onto the ship splitting it in half and i'm pretty sure that caused a tpk but i can't remember
ha ha I had something simmiler as a Monk with a barrel of fish... Long story short, the mayor died and we never step foot in that town again.... Good time. :) Thanks for sharing your story! Fighter pally is the way to go!
This is awesome
I personally have always like to think of Dragonborn, as essentially a Proto-Mammal version of Saiyans straight up! XD
Also don't compare them to Argonians please, or I'll take a page from lord Beerus's playbook lol! =)
@Rookzer0 Since you mention it in the Video: In the Campaign where I'm in, I play a Dragonborn Druid/Barbarian with a hombrew circle that allows me to take the form of a dragon. It is called the "Circle of Scales". 1drv.ms/b/s!Ao-sJ8IFs-0pknIeCjjp6E7UgJEQ?e=YgTZv5 . The Original was postet on reddit from u/NartheRaytei, all credit goes to him.
Nice woek to natheraytei, and thank you for sharing @darotox! DRAGON FORM!!!!
nice
Thank you
Dragonborns should always be bullied.
Everyone knows that kobolds are the most superior race in any D&D setting.
Trueblood kobolds do get a breath weapon..... mini dragonborn...
That sounds like its coming from a kobold who wants to get eaten. ;)
Dragonborn should be based on Eastern Dragons, not stereotypical, no abstract thought required western dragons! 😤
