Dragon Warrior (5e Subclass)
A Dragon Warrior is a warrior who has either come to realize their latent draconic ancestry, or in a contract made with a lesser dragon, gained the abilities of dragons. Draconic fury and force aids them in combat. Although the manner in which the power manifests is not as pure as that of Draconic Sorcerers, the Dragon Warrior compensates with martial prowess. Some Dragon Warriors wield their powers at the behest of a Dragon Lord who is unaffiliated with other Dragons, or serves a powerful draconic humanoid. Some Dragon Warriors have a special bloodline and gain the physical power, instead of the sheer magical power, that they possess.
Receiving your Dragon[edit]
Starting at 3rd level, you gain a dragon companion. You either found a dragon egg and it hatched in your presence, one was given to you years ago and finally hatched, or you did a favor for a dragon and it decided you were worthy of being bonded to its kin. The type of dragon will depend on how you got it, and must share at least 1 axis of alignment. The dragon's soul is bonded to yours and it grows alongside you. You learn Draconic, if you don't already know Draconic, and you may teach a language you know to your dragon. The bond with your dragon allows you to be able to telepathically communicate with it over long distances, which increases as you level up. If your dragon dies, it can be resurrected using an 8-hour ritual. Your dragon has the ability to transform into a pseudodragon and back into its true form as an action, and it keeps its hit points in the pseudodragon form.
