Species: Dragonborn
The children of dragons. Nobody agrees what that means, or where we come from. The children of dragons, and none the wiser for it. Some of us follow them as our rulers, and some of us as masters, and some of us don't follow them anymore. Dragons speak in riddles and proverbs, and we cannot be wasting our lives translating their so-called wisdom. A dragon has no rules.
We have a duty to our clans. We know how to show honor and respect: how to greet a superior and how to greet an equal, which hand takes the cup, what is owed to a house that shelters you and what is owed to one that does not. We learned it from dragons, but we do it for ourselves, to keep the clan ordered and stable. It is our duty. We owe it to each other, to protect our own and the beauty of our ways. We may not be mighty alone, but we are together. We warriors will stand together to watch a new era blossom, a garden for all Dragonborn. From the ashes of dragons, a new flame.
Dragonborn are quite isolated, and rare to find outside their lands. Think of why {name} left home, and which observance you have kept, and which one you have quietly stopped keeping.

An ancient saying: Never exasperate a Dragonborn, for they will sigh and you will burn.
When you take the Attack action on your turn, you can replace one of your attacks with an exhalation of magical {Damage_Type} Energy in a 15-foot Cone or a 30-foot Line that is 5 feet wide, choosing the shape each time. Each creature in that area makes a Dexterity saving throw against DC {8+PB+CON} , taking {n_BW}d10 {Damage_Type} damage on a failed save and half as much on a successful one. You can use this trait {PB} times, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

As a Bonus Action, you sprout magic wings on your back, made of the same draconic energy as your Breath Weapon. They last for 10 minutes, or until you retract them (no action required) or have the Incapacitated condition. During that time you have a Fly Speed of {Speed} feet. Once you use this trait, you can't use it again until you finish a Long Rest.
