Basic Information

Biological Traits

The half-dragon's coloring often favors the draconic parent, as does any elemental affinities. However, if the other species has an affinity for a particular element that could come into play. Pinwings are particularly aligned with water, but would more likely attract a dragon with a connection to water than any other.

Genetics and Reproduction

An offspring of a male dragon and a female of another species is mostly humanoid with draconic traits, while an offspring of a female dragon and a male of another species is mostly draconic with traits of the father as well.

Civilization and Culture

Naming Traditions

Generally as per mother's ethnic backgrounds, although adult half-dragons tend to prefer dramatic nicknames and titles.
