Way of the Dragon

In some civilizations long past and ruined, it was thought possible for humanoids to live peacefully with dragons and learn from them. The magic they use and carry, it turns out, can be utilized by all living things. Those monks who follow the Way of the Dragon have had the ancient technique of harnessing this magic passed on to them after many generations of it being perfected through the use of the body's own supply of ki.

Draconic Discipline

At 3rd level, you have finally honed the martial art passed onto you by your chosen dragon, whether through study of the technique or actual training underneath that dragon. Choose one type of dragon. The damage type and breath weapon associated with each dragon is used by features you gain later.

Draconic Discipline

Color Dragon Type Breath Weapon Black Acid 5 by 30 ft. line (Dex. save) Blue Lightning 5 by 30 ft. line (Dex. save) Brass Fire 5 by 30 ft. line (Dex. save) Bronze Lightning 5 by 30 ft. line (Dex. save) Copper Acid 5 by 30 ft. line (Dex. save) Gold Fire 15 ft. cone (Dex. save) Green Poison 15 ft. cone (Con. save) Red Fire 15 ft. cone (Dex. save) Silver Cold 15 ft. cone (Con. save) White Cold 15 ft. cone (Con. save)

Also as a result of your extended study of dragons, you learned how to read, write and speak Draconic. Whenever you make a Charisma check when interacting with dragons, your proficiency bonus is doubled if it applies to the check.

Variant Dragon Types While all of the types of dragons presented by the Draconic Discipline table are representative of the types of dragons available in the base content for 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons, many of the kinds displayed in the Fairy Tail series do not have any place among them. Below are some suggestions for damage types, and shapes/sizes for the breath weapon attacks, when it comes to such dragons. Please note that some of these may not be balanced for actual play. Darkness. Necrotic damage; 15 ft. cone (Con. save).

Iron. Slashing damage; 5 by 30 ft. line (Dex. save).

Light. Radiant damage; 5 by 30 ft. line (Con. save).

Sky. Thunder damage; 15 ft. cone (Con. save).

Claws of the Dragon

Also at 3rd level, you unlock the ability to invoke the power of dragons. Whenever you make an unarmed strike attack, you cause traces of your chosen element to extend from your arms and legs, increasing your reach for the attack by 5 feet and changing the damage type to the one associated with your Draconic Discipline. On a hit with such an unarmed strike, you can expend 1 ki point to deal an additional 1d8 damage.

Absorptive Nature

When you reach 6th level, your intensive training in the martial arts of dragons has adapted your body to better withstand your element. You gain resistance to the damage type associated with your Draconic Discipline.

Whenever you would take damage of this type, you can use your reaction to absorb some of the its energy to regain 1 ki point, up to your ki point maximum. If the source of this damage is persistent in the environment, such as fire from the Wall of Fire spell, then the source of it is consumed, up to a 5-foot cube. Your DM may rule that there are other environmental sources that you can use this ability on in order to regain ki points by absorbing them, some of which may provide additional benefits. You cannot regain ki points or benefit in this way from anything created by your own class features (this includes spellcasting).

Roar of the Dragon

Beginning at 11th level, you can call forth a breath powerful enough that it is comparable to that of a dragon. As an action, you can make an attack with your breath weapon. Your Draconic Discipline determines the size, shape and damage type of the breath weapon.

When you use this feature, each creature within the area of the exhalation must make a saving throw, the type of which is determined by your Draconic Discipline. A creature takes 2d6 damage on a failed save or half as much damage on a successful save.

You can increase the breath weapon's damage by spending ki points. Each point you spend, up to a maximum of 3, increases the damage by 2d6.

Dragon Force

At 17th level, you can expend a great amount of your ki in order to take on the traits of a true dragon and eminate pure energy. As a bonus action, you can expend 5 ki points to transform yourself. Your skin becomes toughly scaled, your eyes more reptilian and your canines sharpened to a point. While in this form, you gain the following benefits:

You gain immunity to the damage type determined by your Draconic Discipline.

You can use your Roar of the Dragon feature as a bonus action on each of your turns, in addition to your action.
