Half-Gold Dragon Priest
As a bonus action, the priest can expend a spell slot to cause its melee weapon attacks to magically deal an extra 10 (3d6) radiant damage to a target on a hit. This benefit lasts until the end of the turn. If the priest expends a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the extra damage increases by 1d6 for each level above 1st.
Actions
The dragon exhales fire in a 15-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 11 Dexterity saving throw, taking 22 (4d10) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Half-Dragon
A half-dragon is a hybrid that bears the qualities and characteristics of a particular variety of true dragon. Such draconic hybrids can be found with a humanoid, beast, giant, or even monstrosity lineage.
Mysterious Origins. How half-dragons have come to exist is a matter of some debate. Some assert they are the result of a mystical ritual involving the blood of a true dragon or were transfigured through some ancient magic lost to our mages. It is also possible that they are the offspring of a dragon morphed into another form and finding a mate. In any case, half-dragons strongly express the appearance and qualities of their heritage.
Extended Life. Dragons live centuries, with many being known to successive generations of humans in their territory. Half-dragons receive a portion of this blessing, growing old at half the rate of their non-draconic relatives. Half-dragon humans have reached well past one and a half centuries in lifespan.
Elemental Breath. Just as true dragons do, many half-dragons possess the ability to unleash a breath weapon. The nature and potency of this weapon typically mirror that of their draconic parent.
Draconic Qualities. Half-dragons tend to possess the personal qualities associated with their draconic nature. All tend to be inclined toward a self-assured over-confidence and are easily bedazzled by material wealth. Beyond this, they seem to vary by type. A half-copper dragon is likely playful and mischievous and a half-black dragon might have a characteristic disdain and contempt for others.
Half-Gold Dragon Priest
A half-gold dragon priest is inclined by nature to be a hunter of evil. They feel a special, sacred duty to be active guardians of the innocent, the vulnerable, and the marginalized.
Cleansing fire. The priest fights very effectively in melee combat with the radiant divine eminence of their melee weapon. They also have a litany of spells at the ready, giving them the ability heal and support their companions with wisdom and restorative magic. What their opponents fear most, however, is their ability to breathe white hot flames into a melee.
