"I add my strength to my breath." "Your breath is strong?"

The DB Pal's "Channel Divinity: Divine Strength" adds his strength bonus (+4) to damage on his next attack.

It doesn't specify what kind of attack, be it melee, ranged, area, etc.

So, can the pally put that bonus to his breath attack?

Sure. The powerful muscles that support the glands that store the chemicals that create the breath weaopon contract, forcing out a more intense blast of said breath weaopon.

C'mon, how the hell does a dragonborn "breathe" lighting, anyway?

In the absence of any rules to the contrary, I don't see why not. This would cause me to revise my opinion of the ability. I thought it was really weak based on its description on the D&D XP paladin character sheet. Of course, that one did have a pretty low Strength.

I don't really see it as biological so much as supernatural. It's similar to how Eladrin teleport; it's just a part of the dragonborn's BEING that they are endowed with that ELEMENT.

Or if not, just say "Your momma was a shocker lizard"? :)

Honestly, I'd go with poison, but I know I'm going to be fighting undead, so I want something usable in EVERY FIGHT YEEHAW!
