Post subject:  Draconic FAQ - Stage 1, the Questioning

Like the New FAQ, but specifically about draconic-related Lore/Technical/Mechanical/Rules questions, including dragon disciples and kobolds.

If you've found yourself wondering about "_____" then ask it here. If possible, tag your question with something like [Technicial] for purely OOC things or [Lore] or something else that sounds appropriate for IG things. If you're not sure what tag it might have because it's a complex question, don't worry about it.

Also use this thread for asking for clarification, if you seen something ruled different ways and want to know which one to believe.

I will be moderating this topic and will gleefully remove spam, nonsense questions, and split out any discussions that occur.

This is strictly for questions.

[DM reference]

[Lore] What's the stance regarding conflicts between metallics and chromatic dragon disciples?

There's been a division between 'hate each other because of their blood' and 'blood has nothing to do, it entirely depends on each character behaviour and experiences' that should be clarified (even if it's open for interpretation).

[Lore] Do Dragon Disciples become Half Dragons through their Apotheosis at class level 10 like they do in PnP?

[Lore] If kobolds were created from the blood of the first Ten True dragons (chromatic/metallic) can dragonwrought kobolds only manifest those specific traits? (No brown, prismatic, fang, shadow, etc)

[Lore] How are certain non-true dragons able to create half-dragon offspring when they are incapable of using Alter Self? Seeing as the true dragons and some non-true use that to assume the forms that give them that ability. But many non-true dragons are incapable of casting like that.

[Lore] What draconic deities actually exist on Amia? Does it use lore from 2E as well as 3E for the sake of determining what deities are in Forgotten Realms?

Post subject:  Re: Draconic FAQ - Stage 1, the Questioning

[Lore] What happens if a bloodline contains more than one type of draconic ancestry? What if they are opposed to one another? Can a disciple pick and choose which one to initiate?

[Lore] Do multicolored dragons -- that is, a spawn of two different dragon types that contain traits from both -- exist? If so, are they significantly weaker or stronger than a true dragon? By some witchery, could you be a dragon disciple of that multicolored dragon type?

[Lore] If they absolutely had to, would chromatics and metallics work together toward a common goal under any circumstance? What about diluted bloodlines like halves and disciples?

[Lore] Does the process of becoming a disciple override any previous associations, like a character becoming friends with a chromatic disciple and subsequently undergoing the change to a metallic? Putting aside for a moment that this specific circumstance would be a slap in the face to the former.

[Lore] Must a disciple become an exemplar of every trait their draconic ancestor possessed, or can they choose, via the ritual, to exemplify specific aspects of that type?

[Lore] Is blatant greed simply endemic to dragonkind, and how hard does it hit disciples? If the above allows choice, can a goodly disciple choose to voluntarily forego the hoarder aspect?

[Rules/Lore] Are we allowed to request template races like Dragonborn, or do we have to work our way up to those IC?

[Lore] For that matter, if we don't want the raw power and utter lack of individual choice that comes with being a half-dragon, are there are suitably draconic humanoid races out there aside from kobolds (looking for something taller) and Dragonborn (and also for something that isn't romantically sterile for no reason)? ((This one is heavily charged by my bitter opinions on the subject matter, mind you.))

Oh, I do have a few weird ones that I've seen sprouting often.

[Rules/lore] Would a sorcerer of draconic lineage display, so be it involuntarily, dragon traits? (Would I need to request it?)

[Rules/lore] What are exactly the "quarter dragons"? How is that treated in Amia?

[Rules/lore] Can I undo my RDD levels? How?

[Technical] is there a spreadsheet with the various breath weapons stats ? (DC & damage die) Do they defer from the breath of the Shifter's Wyrmling or dragon shapes ?

[Technical/Lore] can any Dragon Disciple request a secondary Breath weapon ? is it tied to the Dragon type ?

[lore] Are Shadow and Deep dragons considered "outside of the conflict" of the chromatic vs metallic?
[lore] Are any other dragon types considered "outside of the conflict"?

Post subject:  Re: Draconic FAQ - Stage 1, the Questioning

[Technical] Do I get any consideration for taking more than 10 levels of DD?
[Lore] What does 20 levels of DD Equal? 15? 10? 4?
[General] I'm a dirty power builder can you take 4 levels of DD?

[general] Is it still the case, that the only dragonic that is allowed is requested dragonblood or non requested, that are so diluted it dosnt even matter mentioning, far beyond 1/12th dragonblood

Post subject:  Re: Draconic FAQ - Stage 1, the Questioning

[Mechanical/Lore] How close are dragonbloods to pure dragons for the purposes of abilities that affect only the latter? If my ranger has favored enemy: dragon, am I significantly better at tracking and brow-beating a 10DD character, even though their creature type is technically unchanged?

Additional question. [Lore] Pure dragons can produce offspring with anything living and corporeal. Does this extend to dragonblooded characters such as half-dragons, dragonwrought kobolds, and dragon disciples? Does the process override true-breeding creature traits like kobolds and dwarves?
