Dragoons are warriors renowned for their mastery of the spear and their feats of superhuman acrobatics. In battle they leap dozens of feat into the air, coming down on their foes with spine-shattering force. In a Single Bound. Dragoons achieve their distinctive leaps through a combination of magic and rigorous training. The magic boosts them into the air when they leap, and softens the impact when they land to keep their bones from shattering. Light and medium armor doesn’t hinder this ability, so dragoons often leap into battle clad in draconic suits of armor. Blood of the Dragon. There are many diverse orders of dragoons, and they all claim a connection with dragons. Some orders claim that their techniques were taught to them by dragons to help the humanoid races coexist with their kind. Others claim that their techniques were designed specifically to kill dragons and take great pride in the slaying of ancient wyrms. Regardless of an order’s opinion of dragonkind, all dragoons model their armor after the true dragons. |
