Warlock Subclass
You are a warlock who has made a pact with a mighty and fierce blue dragon. Regardless of whether this power was given out of interest of some kind or for some ulterior motive, those who enter into pacts with blue dragons should tread lightly as they are known to be tricky and manipulative. Even so, with this newfound pact, you have gained the ability to control one of the fiercest elements in nature, lightning.
Those who choose this path tend to be decisive, and don't leave things up to chance, as acting whimsically may lead to their undoing. However, the aspirations and goals of those who chose this path tend to be wildly different. Some seek power or domination over nature, some to use their dragon patron itself for some sort of goal, while some are even just caught in unfortunate circumstances and forced to make a soul binding pact.

Once you use this feature, you can not use it again until you finish a short or long rest.
