Are there any classes out there for a dragon sorcerer or wizard? Besides the normal character classes, i mean dragon specific ones.

However, one could steal a page from the 2E Council of Wyrms setting to make a 'template class' that sacrifices some of the dragon's physical prowess for earlier and quicker progression in the arcane arts. The Q&D method to do this is to simply chop the BAB and HD values to +3/4 and d8's to increase the casting capacity by about an extra level per age category. A more radical change would be a significant project, and not just because it would differ not only by dragon type, but also by the age categories it can take effect.

Then they would be able to get bonuses casting elemental spells of the type of the dragon. They would also be able to cast those elemental spells as breath weapons. -For purely fun, role-playing purposes, all their spells would have to be completely dragon-themed. They would manifest in something dragon-related, i.e. a fireball looking like a hatching dragon egg, elementals look faintly draconic, etc. etc. etc. -Some sort of dominance(sp?) over reptilians would be included, but perhaps that's just me... These are just my spur of the moment thoughts. I'll tell ya what, though, I'm going to type this one up and post it here when it's finished...
gradea 03-28-04, 03:56 AM	legend, thats basicly an elementalist dragon prc and the spell shaping feat (the one that changes visual effects, not the area one)...
