The Elder Dragon
Bahamut, Tiamat, Niv-Mizzet, all beings of godlike powers and often even greater vanity. As such, they rarely deem a mortal worth of their power. In the rare occasions they seek out such an individual, whether for their amusement or to reach a goal they need lesser beings for, a creature of great might is created.

When you roll initiative, you may use your reaction to unleash a terrifying roar and select a number of creatures up to your Charisma modifier that can see and hear you.

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

Additionally, you gain a number of legendary action equal to your Charisma modifier. Once per round, at the end of another creatures turn, you may use this action to cast a warlock cantrip or perform a single weapon attack.
You regain your legendary actions as you finish a long rest.

New Invocation: Eldritch Exhalation
Prerequisites: Elder Dragon patron, eldritch blast cantrip, 5th level
When you cast Eldritch Blast, you may choose to alter it's form into 15ft cone or 30ft line. If you do so, the damage type is changed to that of your Draconic Aspect class feature and all creatures within the range must make a Constitution (Cold and Poison) or Dexterity (Fire, Acid and Lightning) saving throw, or suffer the damage of your Eldritch Blast.
Targets who succesfully save take half the damage rolled.
