Dvati and the Dragonborn of Bahamut
What happens if a set of Dvati twins undergo the ritual to become a dragonborn of Bahamut? Would it even work? Would both twins have to spend 100g on the egg and do the ritual or can just one do it?
Working on a Dragonfire Adept build and this question has me scratching my head.

"Twins" is a racial trait, so I believe you'd lose it. You'd spend 100gp and absorb the other twin (or they fade out of existence, or fall comatose as their soul is subsumed into the alpha twin -- take your pick).

Re: Dvati and the Dragonborn of Bahamut
You both, who are a single being, go through the ritual. A dragonborn of bahamut comes out.
So basically two go into the egg, only one comes out.

Sounds like a fun way to "trade in" for Multiheaded or Vestigial Twin.

Re: Dvati and the Dragonborn of Bahamut
More fun: the humanoid shape invocation lets you turn into a dvati, thereby gaining two bodies.
It gets silly if you then move your bodies to separate planes (so that Personal effects are no longer shared) and have one of them use humanoid shape again. The sanest ruling would be that since both twins contribute to the second casting, they're both considered the original caster and thus the body which isn't actively casting the invocation disappears.Last edited by Prime32; 2024-02-28 at 04:56 PM.

Nah, Humanoid Shape won't work. It's based on Change Shape, which means that it only gets you size, speed, and natural weapons, not other racial traits.

Re: Dvati and the Dragonborn of Bahamut
I mean, isn't it heavily implied Dvati pairs are more of a single mind in two bodies? They'd go from two bodies to one, but no part of their self is lost.
