Dragon Mantle

At 1st level, you can invoke the mantle of a dragon, adopting the terrifying power of your patron.

You can use a bonus action to activate dragon mantle. which lasts 1 minute or until dismissed as a free action.

While your dragon mantle is activated, you gain the following benefits:

  • While unarmored you gain a bonus to your AC equal to your Proficiency Bonus.
  • You can use your Charisma for the attack and damage rolls of weapons you are proficient in.
  • You gain a bonus to any Constitution saving throw you make to maintain your concentration on a spell. The bonus equals your Charisma modifier (minimum of +1).
  • When you cast a Warlock spell or use an invocation that deals magic damage, the damage done is of the same element as that of your patron’s.

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

Draconic Defiance

Starting at 6th level, you have advantage on saving throws against being frightened and being magically put to sleep.

Elemental Superiority

With the use of your draconic patrons power you are now able to channel the elemental power of your enemies against them. At 10th level, you gain resistance to the damage type associated with your patron.

You also learn the Hellish Rebuke spell and it doesn’t count against the number of spells you know as a warlock.

When an enemy deals damage to you of the type associated with your patron, you have the following options:

  • Choose to cast the next evocation spell of that damage type using your pact magic feature at 1 spell level higher than normal.
  • You can instead cast Hellish Rebuke as a reaction at first level without using a spell slot. This casting uses the damage type associated with your patron.

You can use this feature a number of times as shown on the table below this number increases as you level. You regain all expended uses after a short or long rest

Dragon's Breath (Hydra's Hallitosis)

Starting at 14th level, you gain the ability to imitate the breath weapon of your patron. You can use your action to exhale destructive energy. Your Draconic Patron determines the size, shape, and damage type of the exhalation.

When you use your breath weapon, each creature in the area of the exhalation must make a saving throw, the type of which is determined by your Draconic Patron. The DC for this saving throw is equal to your spell save DC. A creature takes 8d12 damage on a failed save, and half as much damage on a successful one.

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