In addition, and at your DM's discretion, your dragonborn might be more dragon-like as well. It might be more muscular, more apt or able to walk on all fours as well as bipedal. It could even have wings or better senses. Maybe its primal draconic urges are stronger. You could even consider a natural defense, I would recommend 10 + Dex + Con. Again, please discuss this with your DM first.
