5e Classes (Verendal Supplement)
A variety of classes and archetypes can be practiced within Verendal.
Classes
Dark Lord
Dark Lord's are the evilest of evil people. They don't settle in cities populated with normal denizens, rather they prefer subjecting creatures to their will and forcing them to do their bidding. A Dark Lord is not often found but when you see one, you will know almost instantly. They often are the conquerors of settlements and not easily overthrown. Nations within Verendal often task adventures with overthrowing Dark Lord controlled settlements with potential for reward.
Bright Lord
Devout Clerics and experience Paladins know that a Bright Lord is the peak of lawfulness. Bright Lords are found seeking evil and often take the role of a leader of Paladins or a defender of the people.
Dragon Knight
Dragon Knight's are common place within the Kin Clan of Dragons. They are revered for their power and their mastery of dragons. Most are given great respect within the Kin Clan of Dragons and rightfully so as not just anyone can tame a dragon.
Mystics
Misunderstood manipulators of the psychic energy. Their true capabilities are unknown to most and are avoided if their abilities are revealed in public. They are often solitary in their travels, maybe have another Mystic as company, and tend to a craft that is all their own.
Magus
Master of martial and magic combat they are a powerful lot. Known for their ability to use magic through their weapons, they are often sought out for when why have a fighter or a wizard when you can have both?
Oracle
Their exists a single Oracle for each god in the Verendal pantheon. Each oracle is bound to serve that god until their true power is realized. They are aided by clerics and defended by paladins during their service to a god or goddess.
The Magus and Oracle Classes will be detailed in part of a resource document.
Healer
The Healer is similar to a cleric in the sense they can cast divine spells but they cannot use aggressive spells. Instead, they have devoted themselves to life restoring magic and powers of resurrection.
Archetypes
All of these additional ways of the typical classes have a role in Vernedal. The clerical domains give tribute to the pantheon, the schools of the fighter became more specialized, new orders of paladins took up arms, new monastic traditions made their way into the spiritual world, new pacts made, new sorcerers born and new circles formed. They are shown to express that not everything is so rigid. Many of these classes were taken due to this campaign offering both the Hero storyline and the Villain storyline, both of which will be detailed in the Dungeon Master section.

Oath of the Dragon
For as long as Dragons roamed the Material Plane, there were mortals who took up arms in their name. Sometimes called Dragon Knights, Metallic Knights, or Chromatic Knights, those who swear upon the Oath of the Dragon do so in the name of the Dragon Gods, such as Bahamut or Tiamat, or swear to defend Dragonkind Tenets of the Dragon

Turn the Unworthy. - As an action, you present your holy symbol and speak a prayer censuring fiends and Dragons opposite your moral alignment, using your Channel Divinity. Each fiend or Dragon (opposite your moral alignment) that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw. If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1 minute or until it takes damage.
A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can’t willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can’t take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If there’s nowhere to move, the creature can use the Dodge action.
Aura of the Dragon - Starting at 7th level you and any friendly creatures within 10 feet may deal an additional 1d6 damage (of fire, cold, lighting, thunder, poison, or acid- your choice) with weapon attacks, but only once per round. After completing a short or long rest, you may choose a different damage type, and this is the damage type that is dealt until your next rest.
At the 18th level, this aura's range increases to 30 feet, and the damage increases to 2d6.
Draconic Resistance - From 15th level, you become immune to the damage type selected for your Aura of the Dragon.
