Range of bite/claw when enlarged

What is the exact range of a dragon disciples bite and claw attack after he has been enlarged?
So far I thought 10 ft for claw and 5 ft for the bite, but I can't find the source of that info anymore...

What blargney said.

Dragons only have weird reaches because they're quadrupeds (hence reach 5ft. for a Large dragon's claws), but have long necks (which originated the mechanical effect of giving their bites the reach of a tall creature of its size).

Well, it reads...

"A dragon’s bite attack has reach as if the creature were one size category larger. All other attacks are made with the standard reach for the dragon’s size."

... which is more or less the same thing.
 

Beware. Once you got 10 levels in Dragon Disciple class, your creature type chages to Dragon. So, Enlarge Person of Mass Enlarge Person cannot affect you.
 

yeah, I'm well aware of that, and I do absolutely not like it. It feels like punishment. Is there any way, in core rules, to get large again once I reach level 10 DD?

Ask your DM to let you research an Enlarge Dragon spell that works just like Enlarge Person, but affects Small and Medium dragons only.

I am not sure if Psionics Handbook can called to be a part of "core". But Expansion is effective for all typse of creataures. So Once you hits he 10th-levels in DD, you can start to take Psi-Warrior class levels. Or, maybe someone can make a psionic item based on that power (say, manifest that power several times/day).
 

Thx for your input!

Well, my DM doesn't allow new, customized spells, and "psionic" is not considered core rules for him, therefore this is not allowed as well.
Core rules for him is DM's guide, PHB and Monstermanual 1.

So I am probably lost on my quest to get large with a DD10?
Any tricks possible with alter self? Change myself into myself, just one size larger? Won't work probably because (a) template char and (b) more than 5 HD.
