Dragonborn characters

The most common class among dragonborn here is druid, which nobody expects. Scale colour does most of the work: green mosaic leathers over a scarred cuirass, brass hair-horns clipped short, clan paint across a head-crest. If you are stuck, pick the colour first and let everything else follow it.

The scale colours run wider than the dragon types. Deep forest green with brown patches, brass with ram-like horns, obsidian, crimson, gold patterned like woven fire, azure mixed with aquamarine like a sea dragon, and one that is sapphire or emerald depending on the light. Paladins and barbarians come right after the druids, then clerics and wizards. There's even a crimson-scaled warlock with fangs who turns out to be a vampire. Most are men. If you are building one around a dragon colour, look at how many went with a colour no dragon has, and how well that works.
