10-25-04, 02:57 PM My group are starting up a new campaign and I need some help on a character consept. I want to play a Wizard who devotes is life to the study of Dragons.

I was woundering if there where any PrCs that could fit this consept. I was looking in the book "Draconomicon" and I realy like the idea behind the Dracolyte. To bad its for divine spellcasters.

So, any ideas?

That, or try Dragon Disciple in the DMG.

Dragon Disciple is a fun class though. -- Added bonuse you turn into a half dragon.

11-01-04, 11:52 AM Given that PrCs are generally thought of as campaign-specific (rather than just core-classes-with-pre-requisites), then speaking with the DM is a must. You may find that he or she would actually be quite keen to incorporate the idea into the story line.

As for most new characters, creating them in isolation usually is inferior to creating them in cooperation with the DM.

11-13-04, 05:56 AM An old issue of dragon posted a 5lv prc for spellcasters that revolved around dragons. It gave the ability to summon dragons via summon monster spells, skill and lore bonuses related to dragons and the ability to dominate a dragon as per the dominate monster spell. Cant remember its name but check past issues( it was an anniversary issue and the issue was devoted to dragons)

Maybe you could gain the half-dragon template( via magical experimentation) and gain the dragon mystic prc as well (also from said issue)
