I'm pondering a Sorcerer/Dragon Disciple that's not one of the 10 core dragon types. I'm wanting to use an Outer dragon instead. Has anyone done this before? Are there any mechanical alterations/fixes that can/should/need to be made? I'm wanting it to have a distinctly "outer" feel to it, instead of just a cosmetic change to the normal class. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know that anybody has done that prior, although I've thought about it before. The wording for the Draconic bloodline does say it must be Chromatic or Metallic, not just a "true dragon," so I've said in the past that it's not permitted. If you're looking for a houseruling that allows it, I would think you'd just need to come up with the stuff on the chart for Draconic Bloodline (dragon type, energy type, breath shape) and that would be it.
Ex: Lunar dragon, cold, line
Solar dragon, fire, line
Time dragon, electricity, cone
etc.
Wouldn't really know how to give it a distinct "Outer" feel to it without building a new Bloodline, although that has possibilities.
Looks like it's time for me to open up all the books and see what I can do. I'll put up a rough draft in the Homebrews section for feedback when I figure it out...
I know this is an old thread, but, just in case anyone else stumbles on it as I have, the new People of the Stars has a trait that allows the people to chose outer dragon types for their bloodlines (and gives draconic as a bonus language.)
