Dragon Trained[edit]

Throughout your life, you may have wanted to have knowledge, power, or maybe a reason to do anything, well here it is. At some point in your early life, you had met a dragon, be it chromatic or metallic, and convinced it to train you in the ways of the Dragons. These dragons could have many different reasons to actually train you, maybe they liked you, maybe they wanted you out of their hair, or maybe they even considered you a possible rival or pawn in the future, but regardless of the reason, they agreed to train you and that they did. But for whatever reason you chose to leave the area you trained in and got used to, maybe the dragon left, or was killed, or many other possibilities but for whatever reason, this has increased your ambition and you leave to accomplish said task.

d6 Social Class
1 Born of noble birth.
2 Was raised by the dragon who taught me.
3 I was born a commoner who wanted more.
4 I never knew my parents, nor did I ever want to, I raised myself.
5 I bounced around from place to place so I never really fit into a class.
6 Born of the middle class, I had all I wanted.

Feature: Dragon Intimidation[edit]

When Interacting with Dragons or other dragon-like creatures you can use "Dragon Intimidation" to reveal who trained you in hopes of intimidating them to give you what you want.

Alternative Feature: Dragon Fame[edit]

When interacting with Dragons or other dragon like creatures you can use "Dragon Fame" to open special interactions making them possibly like you or hate you based on the dragon who trained you and your relationship with them.

Suggested Characteristics[edit]

Dragon trained are usually uneasy around their own kind, having spent years or even their whole lives in the company of dragons. The alignments of dragon trained usually depend on the dragon that raised them, i.e. most Gold Dragons influence their humanoid peers to be lawful good, most Red Dragons teach their humanoid peers to be chaotic evil. Becuase of this, a dragon trained's goals and morals reflect that or their draconic parent and/or guardian.
