Something about Shanoba seemed to attract him as well, and upon reflection, it was her dragonkin bloodline and the Dragon Soul that had merged into her body causing mischief.
The Dragon Soul had originally fused only within his Consciousness Sea, but just now, Gaven felt it seeping into his bloodline.
He'd touched the itchy spot on his shoulder blade repeatedly, finding no protrusion.
But Gaven was certain that if this continued, he might also grow a pair of Dragon Wings like Shanoba's.
If he could retract them at will like she did, Gaven would be more than happy, as it meant the ability to fly.
However, if they ended up like Erde's leathery wings, dragging behind him, that would be troublesome, not to mention inconvenient; besides, it would make interactions with other sentient beings difficult, as he could easily be treated as an outsider.
Having a Dragonborn lineage granted an advantage among races like the Gnolls, but it could be a disadvantage among other races.
