Lineages
At 1st level, you choose whether your character is a member of the human race or of one of the game’s fantastical races. Alternatively, you can choose a lineage. If you choose a lineage, you might have once been a member of another race, but you aren’t any longer. You now possess only your lineage’s racial traits.Applying the Wyrmblood Lineage
If you gain this lineage after character creation, it represents an awakening of latent draconic blood or a transformative event tied to draconic magic or influence. You retain your core traits, such as movement speeds, senses, and languages, but your other racial traits are replaced by those of the Wyrmblood lineage. This transformation may come with physical and behavioral changes that hint at your newfound draconic heritage.Ability Score Increase

Wyrmblood Lineage
Wyrmbloods are descendants of unions between humanoids and dragons, reflecting the potent and sometimes volatile legacy of draconic bloodlines. Whether born from an ancient pact, a blessing, or a rare bond between dragon and mortal, these individuals are unmistakably marked by their ancestral connection. Despite this, they remain distinctly tied to their non-dragon parentage, existing between two worlds.
The presence of draconic blood within a humanoid is both a blessing and a burden. In some cultures, Wyrmbloods are revered for their connections to dragonkind, while in others, they are met with suspicion or fear. Powerful individuals often emerge among Wyrmbloods due to their mighty heritage, but they must often grapple with the decision to reveal or conceal their lineage. Many Wyrmbloods choose secrecy, fearing both unwanted reverence and undue scrutiny.
When creating a Wyrmblood character, you may roll on or choose from the table below to determine how your draconic heritage manifests in your appearance and demeanor. These traits are purely cosmetic, adding depth to your character’s lineage.
