First a hug for a real RP question.
Well the problem is you need the "dragon blood" to gain the powers you gain. But your character does not need to know he has a past ancestor who was a dragon. I would suggest writing in a dragon who has befriended your family for generations, and has taken a liking to you. And through his/her teachings you learn how to activate the inner powers that lay dormant in you. Or your character could have seen another dragon disciple, and feels an inner strive to attain that type of power. But it really depends on how your DM feels on that. And anyway that is a fifth level character startup, you can use that time to use the ideas I put in. And if your DM fusses just tell him/her "very few races are 100% pure blood in the long run, my character could have unknown dragon blood in them."
I hope that helped. I never really played one myself, I am more of a rogue, cleric or wizard man myself.
And if you want more help with that, go to www.dndonlinegames.com it is a great online roleplaying site. It has a lot of players, DMs and an online dice roller for posts. I go by the same name there as I do here.

Well I would have needed that info before hand. Well there is a large number of problems with warforged and classes like that. Personally I would rule that not possible. The warforged is just not able to do that. And with the "leave dragons alone" line in the Eberron handbook (pg. 24) I would leave the class alone completely. Plus I don't think a warforged can speak anything other than common. (with speak draconic being a requirement.) No bonus languages listed, and I rule only they can be chosen from high Int and the speak language skill.
But you could try "The Reforged" class in "The races of Eberron". It makes the warforged a true living creature. And if the it had some levels of sorcerer, and had taken the "Draconic heritage" feat in "Complete Arcane". It can be ok, maybe. But that would take a number of levels and a start from scratch.
Another idea is you were made of dragon scales, and other dragon parts. That may have left enough behind to help you through.
But still as a DM I would just rule it out and put my foot down on the area. I don't want to speak for your DM though. Good luck.

yeah original not exactly the word i would use i would use something more like obvious
If you were to juggle a lion, and a house cat, the end result would look something like a tattered chunk of red fabric. The cat would scratch anything within reach, and the lion would just eat you. The lesson to learn? Make sure you eat your spinach.

they have no idea on what you are trying. Did your DM let you do it? I still think it can not be done. There are a lot of better classes to play with. What part are you really wanting to get from it? I may can lead you to a better idea.
