Descended from mighty dragons, the dragonborn are a lineage of imposing and strong draconic humanoids. Although they lack the wings of their ancestors, dragonborn bodies are covered in scales, their reptilian heads bear crests and fanged jaws, and their hands and feet are adorned with talon-like claws. While their breath weapons cant match the terrible devastation dealt by older dragons, dragonborn are nevertheless capable of unleashing deadly blasts of energy on their enemies.
Dragonborn typically do not shy away from showing their emotions, whether anger or joy, and tend to share the same confidence and fierce independent spirit of their progenitors, coupled with a strong sense of family and clan. Some choose to live alongside dragons in communities near their lairs or to serve them as guardians, soldiers, or seneschals.
Elemental dragonborn, descended from the well-known dragon types that breathe acid, cold, lightning, and fire, are widespread throughout the worlds of the Labyrinth. These dragonborn usually have brassor bronze-colored scales, sometimes tinged with red, blue, gold, or rust, while certain clans have the same glossy black, electric blue, shining gold, or glistening silver scales as their ancestors.
