I have been building a new homebrew Pathfinder campaign, and I'm currently nailing down what the allowed races will be. So far all of my allowed races have been humanoid. However, I'm toying with the idea of allowing a playable dragon race in the campaign. These would be actual dragons, not half dragons, but of course would have to be weak enough to be on par with the rest of the party. Has anyone had any success with this, or is it a bad idea?
Admittedly, I was inspired a bit by the Dragonkin in Starfinder, though I am aware that this could be harder to balance in Pathfinder.
I'm currently toying with the idea of simply using the "Taninim" from "In The Company of Dragons Expanded". However, even though these dragons are designed to be around the same power level as standard humanoids they still look like they would play *very* differently. Does anyone have any experience with using the Taninim in a mixed party?
