One of my characters is a half-orc with the half dragon template added (a Half-dragon-half half orc, not to be confused with a half dragon half orc).

Anyway, My DM and I were discussing how many dragon HD the character would need to go from medium to large. I couldn't think of any example in which a humaniod would gain size by HD increase, but since the Half-Dragon template changes the creatures type to dragon I think it may be possible.

Any Ideas? :confused:

Characters cannot advance by Hit Dice using any published mechanic that I know of (check the link in my sig, Downloads>"20-level Hit Die Progressions"). Nearly all playable races advance by class.

Anyways, it looks like your DM is letting you fudge the rules a bit. I would try to stay safe and go with three Hit Dice for powerful build as a feat and another three for full-fledged Large size as a feat, dragon Hit Dice are the best of any type and shouldn't be taken lightly.

There are also prestige classes that advance your size, but I don't have any of those books.
