Yep, that's what I was thinking about. A paragon Dragonborn could eventually learn multiple breath weapons, gain a tail slap, grow wings and learn to fly, get a bite and claw attack, learn draconic magic, etc. Feat chains might be easier, but some folks might prefer a paragon route.

I remember back in earlier editions, your character's Race was also their character classes...you could play a 5th level Dwarf, for example, and you would gain additional/improved Dwarf features as you gained levels. I know it was standard for non-human races in BECM and B/X, but I could have...

I voted for the "Meh" option. It's nothing against Forgotten Realms itself, I'm just not very interested in any published campaign settings. I've used the same homebrew campaign setting for almost a decade and I'm not really looking to change it. That said: I'm always looking for inspiration...

Hm...that makes sense. In that case sex work might not be the "oldest profession." It sounds like it wasn't even a profession at all until the 20th century.

The dragonborn you are describing were the standard in 3E, 3.5E, 4E, and 5E (they had a breath weapon, but didn't have flight). I remember them being fairly popular, both at my game table and in the Reddit community.

That said: I can see how having a thick alligator-tail might give the character Advantage on rolls to resist being pushed or knocked prone, and wings could let the character ignore some falling damage. I'm not sure I'd go any further than that without some kind of trade-off....like, if a...

I have! I tried it at a local ... Cuban? Puerto Rican? Jamaican? ... restaurant a couple of years ago. It was very different from tomato ketchup, but I liked it.

For my part: Dragonborn can have tails or wings if the player chooses, but I don't force the decision one way or another for all dragonborn. These wings and tails are purely cosmetic for the most part, but I'll usually allow minor things like using a tail to make an unarmed strike. I like...

I was scrolling around EN World (like one does), and came across an interesting thread about Dragonborn: folks were discussing whether or not Dragonborn should/could have tails, and wings, and other draconic features. Well, I guess most people might not find that interesting, but I do. Ever...

Speaking of "tastes better," a coworker of mine from years ago would make their own. We traded a bottle of my homebrewed beer for a bottle of their homemade ketchup, and it was probably the best I've ever had. Not too sweet, not too salty, you could actually taste the tomatoes...I'm sort of...

I don't really optimize my characters to their ability scores, so those flat numerical adjustments don't add much for me. I'd much prefer they add more unique features like the dwarf's Stonecutting, Halfling Luck, dragonborn Breath Weapon, etc. In other words, what @Micah Sweet suggested.

It's like finding a four-leaf clover, or seeing a double rainbow. It happens, but not very often.

They say you can't judge a book by it's cover, but that's never stopped me before. There's no way am I going to read that thread.
