A half-dragon that is Medium or smaller does not have wings. Armor Class: Natural armor improves by +4. Attack: A half-dragon has two claw attacks and a bite attack, and the claws are the primary natural weapon. If the base creature can use weapons, the half-dragon retains this ability. A half-dragon fighting without weapons uses a claw when making an attack action. When it has a weapon, it usually uses the weapon instead. Full Attack: A half-dragon fighting without weapons uses both claws and its bite when making a full attack.
