In character creation you pick a the feat of what color dragon you serve. Lets call this feat masters scale. When you enter the world you find your kobold in its masters lair. The dragon grants you one of its scales and some of its blood for the ceremony of binding. Every few levels you get more scales so by level 15 its in full suit of dragon scale armor. which I don't think would be game breaking as you can make dragon scale armor by level 14 and this keeps the devs from having to make a lot of new armors or reworking old once just make the 5 clothes/armors that are in game and make them the color of the dragon master. Level 15-20 you get more scales for added benefits to AC and what not like more resistance to the element of the dragon. At level 20 you've bound your self with enough of your masters scales to use its breath weapon 3 times a rest. At level 25 your able to consume flawless dragon scales only of your masters color for more benefits and to use up some of the dragon scales we're collected over the years and to breath some new life in the quest that drop them. Though I don't think you should keep the consumed benefits when you TR. Nor do I think kobolds should ever sprout wings that just silly.

Handle it through the Racial tree, and I could perhaps be ok with it - provided it's appropriate/balanced to what the other (horribly imbalanced but should be fixed) racial trees offer.

I was thinking Kobold full ****** DPS Barbarian - because who better to brainlessly LJ charge their way into a hord of mobs?

Perhaps I'll even make two and name them Kutchek & Goro ftw ^^

Iconic Kobold should emulate the Pun Pun build.

nice idea for kobold iconics.

... although, they could just make dragonborn iconics instead of doing draconic kobolds.

Too powerful and too much granted for free. (The fact it's free makes it more powerful.) Now, if you make people invest AP into it in the racial tree, that's at least something for something. The breath weapon thing is a no-go. You're basically getting something for free (or very cheap, if AP are required) that you only get from Draconic Incarnation or if you've twisted it from DI.

I was figuring most of the of the benefits would be through the racial tree or feats through leveling. As for the breath weapon maybe 3 per rest was a little high maybe just 1 per rest but if it the cap core in the racial tree that requires level 20 and a good amount invested in to the tree wouldn't be OP would show that the bond between the kobold and its master are pretty strong.

Was just throwing the idea out there since we already kind of have dragonkin kobolds in game with the ones in mired in kobolds and search and rescue and with the talking about kobolds being a player race for the 11th anniversary thought the dragonkin kobolds would make a cool iconic race and wouldn't break the lore of eberron with dragonborns being killed on sight by true dragons

This would be awesome but i'm still hoping for a favored soul archon iconic :P

Just as likely you'll have to spend 20 ap to get something about as powerful as Henshin's Cauldron of Flame.
