DragonbloodUncommon Source Player Core 2 pg. 44Ancestry Page DragonbloodYou're descended in some way from a dragon. Your physical features might show this outwardly, with a pair of draconic horns, patches of scaly skin, or even a tail, or you might develop an internal reserve of draconic power. You gain the
dragonblood trait, in addition to the traits from your ancestry. Add
Draconic to your ancestry's list of additional languages (allowing you to choose it as a language if your Intelligence modifier is positive). When you roll a success on a saving throw against a
fear effect, you get a critical success instead. You can choose from
dragonblood feats and feats from your ancestry whenever you gain an ancestry feat.
Draconic Exemplars
Some abilities reference your draconic exemplar, which is a specific type of dragon from which you draw your draconic powers—typically the type of dragon whose blood runs in your veins. You can choose your exemplar when you create your character, but are only required to choose one when you select a feat or other option that requires you to have one (such as Breath of the Dragon). This means your draconic nature might be a mystery to you for some time. br> br>The table below lists the dragons from Monster Core and their specifications. The dragon breath entry lists if the given breath uses a Fortitude
(F), Reflex
(R), or Will
(W) saving throw. If you choose a dragon from a different source, work with your GM to determine if you have access to it.
