Brown Dragonborn
Found in the Arid regions of Abeir and also around the Plains of Purple Dust on Toril, the Brown dragonborn are experts in the survival in some of the most hostile areas of both worlds. In appearance, they have vestigial wings that adorn their backs, and have two sets of horns above their golden eyes, with a hide that is speckled brown and sand coloured.
When needs be, brown dragonborn can subsist on a diet that partially contains sand from the Badlands and deserts that they inhabit. But for the majority of brown dragonborn, live prey is a far more tempting prospect - especially sentient live prey.
As a brown dragonborn, you have these characteristics -
Ability Score Increase – Your Strength increases by 1 and your Constitution increases by 2
Age – Brown dragonborn age at the same rate as other types of dragonborn, but their bestial nature and belligerence means that few get to see old age.
Size – Brown dragonborn are around the same size and height as other types of dragonborn.
Speed – Your base speed is 30ft
Darkvision – you have Darkvision up to 60 feet. You can see in low light conditions as if it were bright light and darkness as if it were dim light. You cannot discern colour in the darkness, just shades of grey.
Breath Weapon – Your breath weapon is acid, which you can breathe in a 5 ft 30ft line emanating on you. When you use the weapon, each creature must make a Dexterity save or take 2d6 acid damage on a failed save, and half as much damage on a successful one. The damage increases to 3d6 at 6th level, 4d6 at 11th level, and 5d6 at 16th level. The save DC for the weapon is 8+ your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus.
After you use your breath weapon, you cannot use it again until you finish a short or a long rest.

Fang Dragonborn
The bestial and brutal fang dragonborn are found in the mountains of Abeir, in conflict with other dwellers that call the cold, unforgiving peaks their home. Though their tails lack the two blades at the end of their forked tails that the fang dragons have, they do have spines that grow over their tough scaled bodies as per the fang dragons. With lower jaws surrounded with spines and crimson eyes that seem to burn in their steel coloured faces, fang dragonborn look almost demonic – fitting considering one of the legends of their ancestry, in which they travelled from the ruins of the great elven city of Myth Drannor to the mountains of Abeir.
Fang dragonborn clans are reviled across the northern reaches of Abeir, due to their sadistic nature and violent outbursts.As a fang dragonborn, you have the following features -

Tough Skin - When unarmoured, your AC is 12 + your Dexterity modifier. You are unable to wear armour without major adjustments to fit your spiky form, even when that armour was made for other dragonborn, and armour made for you costs double.
Grapple – When you make a successful grapple check when not wearing armour, you deal 1d8 of piercing damage.
Sound Imitation – You have the ability to mimic voices and sounds that you have heard with a performance check. Those that listen to you must make a perception check (8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier) to discern the ruse.
Tripping Critical – When you hit a creature with a melee attack and score a critical hit, you can choose to knock that creature prone if it is a large creature or smaller.
