Dragoon, Revisited

The Dragoon is an elite class of knight, trained specifically to fight dragons. They are polearm-wielding knights that developed an aerial style of combat, so that they might better pierce the scaled hides of their mortal foes. Taking to the firmament as though it were an extension of the land, they descend upon the enemy with every ounce of their bodies behind the blow. A select few dragoons bind their souls to a dragon wyrmling egg, creating an unbreakable bond between each other. Others infuse their own blood with a dragon's, granting them ancient magic and abilities.

Multiclassing

Ability Score Prerequisites
Class Ability Score Minimum
Dragoon Strength 13 and Constitution 13

Multiclass Spellcasting

Your capacity for spellcasting depends partly on your combined levels in all your spellcasting classes and partly on your individual levels in those classes. Once you have the Spellcasting feature from more than one class, use the rules below. If you multiclass but have the Spellcasting feature from only one class, you follow the rules as described in that class.

Spell Slots. If you have the Dragon's Blood feature, add a third of your levels (rounded down) in the Dragoon class when determining your spell slots.

Vault

At 1st level, while you aren't wearing heavy armor, you can vault as a bonus action, moving an amount of feet both laterally and vertically up to the amount shown in the Vault Distance column of the Dragoon table. This movement must be in a straight line, and doesn't cost your movement. If you collide with an object during this movement, your vault stops and you fall. Attacks of opportunity have disadvantage against you while you're vaulting.

Additionally, you have resistance to damage from falling an amount of feet that's less than your Vault Distance. At 10th level, you are immune to this damage instead of resistant.

Polearm Specialist

You have practiced extensively with polearms, which are the following weapons: javelins, spears, pikes, glaives, halberds, tridents, and lances. You have a +2 bonus to damage rolls with polearms, and any polearm you wield gains the reach property if it doesn't already have it.

Aerial Assault

Starting at 2nd level, you learn how to drop down upon your foes with devastating power. You gain the ability to use the aerial assault.

Aerial Assault. If you make at least one weapon attack with a polearm immediately after vaulting, you strike as you descend. The first of these attacks that hits deals 1d4 extra damage for every 10 feet you vaulted. The extra damage die becomes 1d6 at 9th level and 1d8 at 14th level.

You may use this feature a number of times equal to 1 plus your Constitution modifier(minimum 1). When you finish a short or long rest, you regain your expended uses.

Draconic Knowledge

At 3rd level, you have significant experience studying, tracking, hunting, and even talking to Dragons.

You have advantage on Wisdom (Survival) checks to track dragons, Intelligence checks to recall information about them, as well as all saving throws against effects created by dragons or their lair actions.

Additionally, you learn to read, write, and speak Draconic.

Dragoon Path

Also at 3rd level, you choose a path that you strive to emulate in your combat styles and techniques. Choose Dragon Master, Dragon's Soul, or Dragon's Blood, all detailed at the end of the class description. The path you choose grants you features at 3rd level and again at 5th, 7th, 11th, and 17th level.

Some of your features require your target to make a saving throw to resist their effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:

Path save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier

Ancient Circle

Starting at 6th level, you have developed defensive magic to protect you and those around you from area of effect attacks.

When you are subjected to an effect, such as a red dragon’s fiery breath or a Lightning Bolt spell, that allows you to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, you can use your reaction to create a magical sigil on the ground in a 10-foot radius around you. Targets within the area are resistant to damage dealt by such effects, and make their saving throws against the effects with advantage, until the start of your next turn. At 15th level, the radius increases to 30 feet.

You have one use of this feature, which is replenished when you finish a short or long rest. At 15th level, you have two uses.

Dragon Heart

Starting at 13th level, your mind and body become inured to the dragons you hunt, granting you some of their properties.

You become immune to the frightened condition, and you gain resistance to the elemental type you chose for your Dragoon Path.

Relentless Combatant

Starting at 18th level, whenever you score a critical hit with a Aerial Assault or reduce a creature to 0 hit points with one, you may immediately make one melee weapon attack against each enemy creature within your reach.

Additionally, your weapon attacks with polearms now score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20.

One with the Sky

At 20th level, you may use your Aerial Assault an unlimited number of times, without requiring a rest.

Dragoon Paths

A dragoon chooses a path when it rises from the ranks of initiate within the order. The path you follow reflects your choice.

Dragon Master

The Dragon Master path embodies a power between the of the world dragons and man. Bound together as one, dragon and dragoon work as one to fight the monstrous foes that threaten civilization and its outlying areas. Emulating the Dragon Master path means committing yourself to this ideal, working in partnership with a dragon as its companion and friend.

Dragon Companion

At 3rd level, you use your magic to create a powerful link with an unhatched dragon egg. After an exhaustive 8 hour ritual and the expenditure of 50 gp worth of rare herbs and minerals, you link your soul with the dragon inside the egg to become your faithful companion. Select your companion from among the following dragon wyrmlings: Black, Blue, Brass, Bronze, Copper, Gold, Green, Red, Silver, or White located in Appendix A. Your DM might pick one of these dragons for you, based on the surrounding terrain and on what types of dragons would logically be present in the area.

At the end of the 8 hours, your dragon companion hatches and gains all the benefits of your Soul Link ability. You can have only one dragon companion. Your companion can't be mounted, as it isn't sturdy enough to sustain a rider's weight.

Because your souls are magically intertwined with each other, if you die, your companion dies with you. This magic was crafted in order to protect the dragoon and give the dragon an incentive to build a strong bond with its master.

If your dragon companion is ever slain, the magical bond you share allows you to return it to life. With 8 hours of work and the expenditure of 25 gp worth of rare herbs and minerals, you call forth your companion’s spirit and use your magic to create a new body for it. You can return your dragon companion to life in this manner even if you do not possess any part of its body.

Dragon's Soul

A Dragoon who has chosen to enchance their combat abilities beyond their full potential accepts a portion of a dragon's soul into their body when they choose this path. This class of Dragoon gains enhanced physical abilities to use against their enemies. Their combat abilities evolve around increasing the speed and devestating effects of their strikes to overpower their enemies.

Merged Soul

At 3rd level, you choose a dragon color that you accept part of their soul. The damage type associated with each dragon is used by features you gain at later levels.

Dragons' Soul
Color Damage Type
Black Acid
Blue Lightning
Brass Fire
Bronze Lightning
Copper Acid
Gold Fire
Green Poison
Red Fire
Silver Cold
White Cold

Power Vault

Starting at 3rd level, your focus on vaults allows you to use them more efficiently.

Once during each of your Vaults, when you collide with an object, you can jump off of it to gain an additional 10 feet of height, as long as there is room to jump. Additionally, the maximum height for damage calculation of your Aerial Assault is increased by 10 feet.

Extra Attack

Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

Dragon Strike

Starting at 7th level, your muscles are honed from your dragon soul.

Your speed increases by 10 feet.

When you use your Aerial Assault, you can change the damage type to your Merged Soul type, and you can choose one of the following additional effects when you hit with it:

  • The target must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.
  • The target must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or be disarmed of one object or weapon, which lands at its feet.
  • The target must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or the next attack made against them has advantage.

Penta-thrust

Starting at 11th level, you can perform a five-point strike against enemies in front of you.

Using your action, you strike all creatures in a 15-ft cone in front of you. Each creature in the area must make a Dexterity saving throw, taking 5d8 damage of your Merged Soul's type on a failed save, or half on a success. This damage is increased to 7d8 at 15th level.

Once you have used this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

Death from Above

Starting at 17th level, you have mastered the aerial art and the weapon of the dragoon. When you attack, you put every ounce of your body behind the blows.

When you use your Aerial Assault, your attack is always treated as if you had fallen the maximum distance.

Additionally, you can replace the die roll for an attack made immediately after your Vault with a 20. You can do this after the attack roll, but before determining if the attack hits. You can't do so again until you finish a short or long rest.

Dragon's Blood

A Dragoon who has chosen drink the blood of a dragon does so with a deep understanding of the effects it will have on them. While it does grant great magical power to the dragoon. Scales form in areas across the body and their eyes change to look like that of a dragon, causing fear and awe to those around that see them.

Blood Infusion

At 3rd level, you choose a dragon color that you infuse with your own blood. The damage type associated with each dragon is used by features you gain later.

Dragons' Blood
Color Damage Type
Black Acid
Blue Lightning
Brass Fire
Bronze Lightning

Spellcasting

When you reach 3rd level, your blood gives you the ability to cast spells. See chapter 10 for the general rules of spellcasting and Appendix C for the Dragon's Blood spell list.

Cantrips. You learn two cantrips of your choice from the dragon's blood spell list. You learn an additional dragon's blood cantrip of your choice at 10th level.

Spell Slots. The Dragon's Blood Spellcasting table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

For example, if you know the 1st-level spell shield and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast shield using either slot.

Spells Known of 1st-Level and Higher. You know three 1st-level dragon's blood spells of your choice. The Spells Known column of the Dragon's Blood Spellcasting table shows when you learn more dragon's blood spells of 1st level or higher. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 7th level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level.

Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the dragon's blood spells you know with another spell of your choice from the dragon's blood spell list. The new spell must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

Spellcasting Ability. Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your dragoon spells, since you learn your spells through an understanding of your dragon blood's magical properties. You use your Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a dragoon spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier

Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier

Blood Affinity

Starting at 5th level, when you cast a spell that deals damage of the type associated with your dragon's blood, you can add your Intelligence modifier to one of the damage rolls.

Dragon Magic

Beginning at 7th level, when you use your action to cast a cantrip, you can make one weapon attack as a bonus action.

Blood Magic Recovery

Beginning at 11th level, the powerful magical nature of your blood allows you to use spells more often than others.

Once per day when you finish a short rest, you can choose expended spell slots to recover. The spell slots can have a combined level that is equal to or less than 1 plus your Intelligence modifier.

Flight of the Dragoon

Beginning at 17th level, you are able to expend two available Aerial Assault uses to cast the fly spell on yourself. When you do, an ethereal pair of dragon's wings sprout from your back. When you use your Aerial Assault while this feature is active, you can use your reaction after the attack to move up to your speed without provoking an attack of opportunity.

This work is a modification by /u/devikyn, based off of /u/Amellwind's original Dragoon class. Its purpose is to fix exploits in the original work, rebalance and finish some of the mechanics, reduce complexity, and to resolve some minor grammar issues. The original is extremely well done and I highly suggest checking it out here. The original's credits are included below.

I would like to thank all those in the past who have posted their ideas on dragoons. Without them I feel that I would have some gaps in what I wanted the class to be.

Thank you to /u/SilentSoren for the flight of the dragoon ability in your dragoon homebrew https://www.gmbinder.com/images/gallery/8LbPl

Thank you to https://surfarcher.blogspot.com/2014/08/d-5e-monsters-part-4-construction.html for your table to help determine ability scores for each creature in Apendix A.

Thank you to the few people with their ideas on how to make jump work that I was able to combine into a way I viewed how it should work.
