Instead, they lacked tails and sported scaly dreadlocks because WoTC was worried the players would confuse them with the Half-Dragons (who did look anthropomorphic versions of Chromatic and Metallic Dragons).  <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="😛" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" title="Face with tongue    :stuck_out_tongue:" data-shortname=":stuck_out_tongue:" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" />It wasn't until 5e when they bore a stronger resemblance to Chromatic, Metallic and Gem Dragons. Officially they lacked tails still. Unofficially everyone was pinning the tail back onto the Dragonborn. <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="😋" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60b.png" title="Face savoring food    :yum:" data-shortname=":yum:" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" />And now in 5.5, they officially got tails, a breath weapon with a changeable AoE and ghostly wings. Speaking of their wings, which are magical in nature, can they be affected by spells such as Dispel Magic?</blockquote>
