Draconic Ancestry: The dragonborn's ancestry informs its resistance and breath weapon.
Damage Resistance: 1 type of damage (see Dragonborn#Draconic Ancestry)
Breath Weapon (1/Day): The dragonborn can use its action to exhale destructive energy. Its draconic ancestry determines the size, shape, and damage type of the exhalation. Each creature in the area of the exhalation must make a saving throw, the type of which is determined by the dragonborn's draconic ancestry. The DC for this saving throw equals 8 + the dragonborn's Constitution modifier + its proficiency bonus. A creature takes 2d6 damage on a failed save, and half^[5] as much damage on a successful one. The damage increases to 3d6 at CR 6+, 4d6 at CR 11+, and 5d6 at CR 16+.
