Dragon Fighter, 2nd Variant (5e Class)

Dragon Fighter

Introduction

A powerful warrior who have been chosen by dragon to become its champion. The reason why a dragon has chosen its champion is always a mystery. The only people who truly know are the champions themselves. Some people say they do it for no reason, others say that they have a quest or journey that they want their champion to do in their place and some say they just want to have some fun. Dragon Blade are powerful warriors that are not very well-known. Dragons are very selective when choosing a champion and because of this not many are around.

The longer a champion remains loyal the more draconic they become.

You have resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.
If you are able to cast spells, you can't cast them or concentrate on them while raging.

Your rage lasts for 1 minutes. It ends early if you are knocked unconscious or if your turn ends and you haven't attacked a hostile creature since your last turn or taken damage since then. You can also end your rage on your turn as a bonus action.

Once you have raged the number of times shown for your Dragon Fighter level in the Rages column of the Dragon Fighter table, you must finish a long rest before you can rage again.
