Those of you who own the Creature Compendium will likely recognize today's class--the dragi. Essentially, this character class is an adaptation of that creature. The dragi was never meant to be any sort of OSR version of the dragonborn. I actually originally approached the idea of a draconic humanoid race from the POV of "What kind of creature would I have created in the early 80s that would be a dragon-headed humanoid?" The dragi are generally solitary, and hate other draconic types (a party can only ever include 1 dragi). They see themselves as cultured and refined (in fact, building a stronghold costs them double the normal price because of their demands on quality and aesthetics). That's the gist. Now download the PDF!

You'll notice this PDF is copyrighted. When the book is completed and published,
all of the character classes I've been posting will designated as open game content at that point.
Very Nice! I also prefer this format over the blog post text, even though there's the print to PDF option.
ReplyDeleteI'll be doing a few of them in this format (PDFs made directly from the layout of the book itself). It's also a nice taste of what the final book will be like.
DeleteNice. But I am going to avoid this since I am working on a Dragon-folk race with my son now! ;)
ReplyDeleteSweet! So, new to the blog, these will be collected as book in thr future?
ReplyDeleteWelcome!
DeleteYes. Plan is for CX1: Character Class Codex to include these posts (as well as plenty of unpublished others), followed by CX2: Animal Class Codex (a book of Narnian-styled animal classes. Both will be preceded by PX1: Basic Psionics Handbook (a BX psionics system, including 2 new character classes and BX versions of classic psionic monsters and a few new monsters).
Excellent. Looking forward to picking it up.
