Half-dragon as a class

[Rampant]

Ok I'd like opinions on the tail abilities, I've tried to sort them out a bit better but they feel kinda off.

Also any thoughts on the other two (fangs and claws) would be appreciated.

Has anyone here taken a look at the sorcerer-king dragon transformation in original Darksun? It's in The Book of the Dragon Kings. I don't know what they did with this in the new set, but they have this whole dragon apotheosis thing going on.
I see that you have the character undergoing some transformation, here, level by level, but it doesn't look like you want them to just become a dragon. Is that right?
Also, what was that prestige class called in 3.0? Take a look at that. I remember Meepo in NWN getting that when he was following my character around. Pretty cool.

I didn't realize this thread was this long. Sorry if my suggestions are redundant. Use it as you find it, or don't.

The dragon king and similar transformative PrCs are the inspiration for this class however, I'm trying to move beyond simply becoming more dragon like, that's why things like the natural weapon abilities and the fear affects are so important.

Okay, made a minor tweak on the last tail ability, moved the con mod to attacks of opportunity thing down to level 5, and made it ability all the versions can use.

Noticed I had Elemental immunity up there twice.

So now I've got a blank spot at level 19, suggestions?

You haven't put any natural armor I suggest adding a couple of those and cap at 19.

 

[Rampant]

good idea

Ok installed natural armor, and switched out that first bite ability, Any suggestions for the other bite powers? I think Rend, augmented crit, and or constitution damage will work for the claws.

Hmmmm not a lot of room left for bonus feats.

I think you are good, you give a lot feat or like abilities already. I think the bite can have the con. damage.

I kinda wanna avoid the con drain on the bite attack bit, I'm hoping to create a separate fang dragon variant or feat later, and would like that to be their schtick.

Ok I've installed the last two claw abilities, but I was wondering if people preferred augmented critical to either the con damage or pounce effect, and if so which one would they wanna trade out for it.
