Viewed with fear and suspicion by the humanoids they live with and considered an abomination by the dragons they were spawned from. Some try to rid themselves of their draconic heritage through magical means but others embrace it seeing it as their true bloodright. Evil half dragons often see their non draconic parents racial heritage as weak and instead use their powers to purge themselves of their humanoid heritage (and for them, this class could be called a purgator) Dragon disciples often see their own change as incomplete and continue down this path. In either case, the goal is to become a True dragon and acquire the full power of their dragon heritage. This specific class is designed for half Silver Dragons to become Juvenile Silver Dragons. Prerequisites: Sorcerer Level 3 Half Silver Dragon Knowledge Arcana: 5 Language: Draconic Hitdie: D12 Class Skills: As Dragon Disciple Level BAB F/R/W NAC Abilities 1 +0 +2/+2/+2 +1 Wis +1, Cha +1, Wings 2 +0 +3/+3/+3 +2 Wis +2, Int +1, Con +1 3 +1 +3/+3/+3 +3 Wis +3, Cha +2 4 +1 +4/+4/+4 +4 Wis +4, Int +2 5 +2 +4/+4/+4 +6 Draconic Change, Con +2 Tail 6 +2 +5/+5/+5 +7 Wis +5, Cha +3, Con +3 7 +3 +5/+5/+5 +8 Wis +6, Cha +4, int +3 8 +4 +6/+6/+6 +9 Wis +7, Cha +5, Int +4 9 +4 +6/+6/+6 +10 Quadraped, Cha +6, Int +5, Con +4 10 +5 +7/+7/+7 +11 Dragon Apotheosis, Wis +8, Int +6 Wings: if the Dragon Souled did not previously have wings, he now grows them from his back. His speed and manoueverability are listed below. Draconic Change: The Dragon Souled grows to large size giving him a -1 size bonus to attack and a +1 bonus to natural AC (Included in the progression). He is now so far from his non draconic parents's heritage that he loses any ability bonuses (or negatives) from his original base race. His physical appearance has changed so much that he now appears hunched over like a T-Rex. Any armour that he wears from this point on must be specially modified to fit his new form. Tail: The Dragon souled grows a long serpentine tail that he can deliver slap attacks with. He May now also use his wngs to make wing slam attacks. Quardraped: At level 9 the Dragon Souled loses his ability to use his hands to hold weapons and becomes a quadrapedal creature. He loses his natural reach but gains bonuses to resist trip attacks and bonuses to his carrying capacity. Dragon Apotheosis: At level 10 the Dragon Souled becomes a True Dragon. He must now follow the rules for Dragon advancement in the Draconomicon (p 141) and gains all the bonuses of the dragon type. This final change makes the Dragon Souled loose all previous connection with his non draconic parent's race. He loses any skill bonuses, bonus feats or other assosiated aspects. Special Abilities: The Dragon Souled Gains the following special abilities at the marked level: 2: Vulnerability to Fire 4: Immunity to Cold 6: Cloudwalking 8: Immunity to Acid 10: Alternate Form, Featherfall Natural Weapons/Flight: The Dragon Souled's natural weapons become more powerful and more deadly as he increases in level. He also acquires new natural weapons as he progresses.

Joren 07-06-04, 02:19 PM	Juvenile. That way the 3 levels of sorcerer make up the dragon's inate sorcerer ability, and the ability bonuses you gain will take you to the same level. So, your class levels to build up to this point would be worth 16hd for working out future dragon advancement, but you'll have a much lower BAB, less HP (due to taking sorcerer levels) and none of the skills. The Apotheosis turns up at level 15, so it kinda evens out :) I'll add this into the progression in a moment, and add the breath weapon progression (which I also forgot)
