How Heavy are Dragonborns?
As a long-time gaming enthusiast, few things ignite my imagination like the formidable, fearsome Dragonborn race. I‘m consumed with analyzing every detail of their anatomy to appreciation the majesty of their physique along with their epic capacity for raw, physical power.
So how much does the average Draconic marauder actually weigh? Brace yourself adventure seekers…
Dense, Mighty Builds
Dragonborns tip the scales far beyond most bipeds, averaging a colossal 220 to 320 pounds fully grown. Even youthful, 3 year old Dragonborns stand at 4 feet and 90 pounds – the size of human children twice their age!
These lofty dimensions can be attributed to:
- ToweringHeight – Typically between 6‘2" and 6‘8"
- Thick Bones – As dense as hardwood with nigh-unbreakable rib cages
- DenseMusculature – Layers of tough sinew covering their broad frames
Surprisingly Nimble Giants
Given their sheer mass, one might expect Dragonborns to lumber about slowly.
But surprisingly, these giants have a quickness that belies their stature.
By distributing weight evenly across their lower centers-of-gravity, Dragonborns move with far more agility and speed than ogres or trolls of comparable size.
Strong As They Are Large
Dragonborn‘s don‘t just use their impressive strength for staggering blows in combat.
On average, Dragonborn can lift, push or pull up to 30 times their strength score in pounds:
| Strength Score | Carrying Capacity (lbs) |
| 10 | 1,500 |
| 15 | 2,250 |
| 20 | 3,000 |
So a Dragonborn boasting 20 strength could hoist a full ton off the ground – imagine witnessing that first-hand!
Variables Impacting Weight
Of course with a shape-shifting lineage tracing back to Tiamat, not all Dragonkin share identical dimensions. Factors like:
- Age – Younglings develop quicker, attaining adult mass by 15 years old
- Gender – Females average slightly taller at 7-8 feet verses 6-7 for males
- Subtype – Frost breeds sport thicker layers with more heft
Further exploration may uncover magical or divine traits that could amplify a Dragonborn‘s stature and density even beyond what I‘ve documented here. As avid researchers know – this topic always merits more investigation!
So in summary, whether you prefer clashing with these behemoths in-game or marveling at their mythology as I do, Dragonborn remain a race of epic proportions in every sense imaginable. Over 7 feet and 300 pounds of pure might!
