The Aydahar are a race of humans who have been mixed with draconic blood. When it was learned that dragons and humans could produce offspring, the races of the Aydahari and the similarly draconic blooded Ungirsi soon came into being. The Aydahari eventually banished their Ungirsi cousins from their land, choosing to cohabit and comingle with their full-blooded dragon cousins... at least those dragons who are gregarious enough to put up with others.

Racial Variants

There are a dozen variants of the Aydahar race, most of which are determined by the nature of their draconic ancestors.

Kara Aydahar

A Kara Aydahar

Native to the Kara Aydahar Region of the Aydahar Confederation, the Kara Aydahar share their genetic makeup with black dragon ancestors. A Kara Aydahar individual may actually have a draconic parent. They can be distinguished by other Aydahar by their dark coloring and white forward swept horns.

In addition to the standard Aydahar traits, the Kara Aydahar have a close relationship with acid. Their bodies contain an organ enabling them to produce and spit an acidic gel. This ability also makes the Kara Aydahar naturally resistant to acid.

Kizil Aydaharr

A Kizil Aydahar

The Kizil Aydahar Region of the Aydahar Confederation is home to the hot blooded Kizil Aydahar, who share their genetic makeup with red dragon ancestors. A Kizil Aydahar individual may actually have a red dragon parent as dragon DNA can fertilize human eggs.

Kizil Aydahar can be distinguished by other Aydahar by their red coloring and white-tipped backward swept horns. In addition to the standard Aydahari traits, the Kizil Aydahar have a close relationship with fire. Their bodies contain an organ enabling them to produce and spit a fiery blast, much in the same way as a dragon does. This ability also makes the Kizil Aydahar naturally resistant to fire.

Half-Aydahar

A Half-Aydahar

Half-Aydahar can be found throughout much of the Aydahar Confederation and the Free States. They can live in any country on Otan more or less safely, however they prefer to be near others who share draconic blood. Half-Aydahars will have 1/4 or less draconic blood, taking them a degree away from full Aydahar integration.

In Aydahar, the Half-Aydahar are treated fairly and they participate in government just as do any other citizens. If their bloodline is diluted enough that they appear to be regular humans, however, life in Aydahar can become difficult. For this reason many Half-Aydahar will migrate to the Free States where bloodlines are not considered to be very important by anyone.

[[[Half-Aydahar]] have a very wide range of appearances. On one side, they can be indistinguishable from a full Aydahar and on the other, they can be indistinguishable from a Human. Their faces tend to look more human, but it is not unusual for them to retain the horns of their draconic ancestors. They will likely also possess the draconic sac enabling them to spit one manner of damage or another. They will also have resistance to that chose type of damage.

5e Equivalence

When translating the Aydahar to be played in Dungeons & Dragons, a playable Dragonborn race and racial variants following those in this Wiki can be found in the Player's Handbook.
