Wyrmling
   Wyrmlings are the hybrid amalgamations of dragons and
humanoids, occuring through either the union of a dragon
and a humanoid or a blessing bestowed upon a humanoid
bloodline. They are a rare sight, look down upon by human,
dragon, and dragonborn alike due to their chaotic and
unstable physiology. As Wrymlings have not dwelled long in
the world, they have neither the noble bloodline of a
dragonborn, nor the reputation reputation of humans.
As opposed to dragonborn, wyrmlings have a large pair of
wings and a tail, rather than the signature elemental breath.
They are seen as anomalies, frequently met with cold
reception and odd stares. They tend to live on the fringes of
socieity, rarely in posiitons of power or in large social circles.

In the Fringes
   Wyrmlings share their quick wit and versatility with their
human ancestry, further enhanced by their draconic magic;
they are innately aware of imminent danger, and have thus
deigned themselves to living with a sense of obscurity. Due
to their appearance, it is even more so imperative to do so.
A large pair of wings and a tail lead to many lend little to
the effort of obscurity.
As a result of this assumed role of living on the fringes due
to cold receptions, many Wyrmlings lives as wayfarers,
travelling and working local manual labour. Some, however,
call their brethren cowards; this rambuncious bunch views
living in the shadows, hiding one's appearance, and placency
as the worst assumed traits of Wyrmlings. Many with this
mindset choose to live as adventurers, unimpeded by the
poor treatment given to them by other races.

Physical Appearance
    Wyrmlings have a conspicuous appearance, covering head-
to-toe in patches of sharp, vibrant scales that take on the
shade and properties of their specific draconic ancestry, as do
their eyes. Wyrmlings have a unusually sharp teeth, a sizable
tail and a pair of large wings, all with matching vibrant scales.
While the Wyrmlings may be viewed negatively by others, it is
seen in certain circles that to lay your eyes upon one will
bring you good luck.

Wyrmling Names
    Wyrmfolk tend to have human names as a better way of
adapting, except for cases in which dragons raise a Wyrmling
as their child, thus giving them a name.
