This archetype uses the homebrew Demi-Dragon class
Embodiment of the Genesis
While most demi-dragons model themselves after dragons of
legend, some seek to carve a path entirely their own. These
demi-dragons nurture their inner spark above all else, and let
it find its shape as it grows. While this process is both
abstract and tenuous, a devotee can find inspiration from
planes outside the Material Plane, such as the Elemental
planes, Limbo, and Mechanus. Through this process, they
become a living conduit of the planes, and a force of
elemental might on the battlefield. The scales of a Genesis
dragon change color as they grow in strength, eventually
settling on abnormal hues such as violet, orange, pink, or
even prismatic or opalescent palettes.
