Breath Weapon: The dragon uses one of the following breath weapons. It can’t use either again until it completes a short or long rest.

• Acid Breath: The dragon exhales acid in an 20-foot line that is 5 feet wide. Each creature in that line must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw, taking 4d8 acid damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
• Slowing Breath: The dragon exhales gas in a 15-foot cone. Each creature in that area must succeed on a DC 12 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature can’t use reactions, its speed is halved, and it can’t make more than one attack on its turn. In addition, the creature can use either an action or a bonus action on its turn, but not both. These effects last for 1 minute. The creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect with a successful save.

Dragonmaster Archetype

---

Starting at 3rd level, you have a dragon companion that accompanies you on adventures and fights alongside you.

• You add your proficiency bonus to the dragon's AC and attack rolls, as well as to any saving throws and skills it is proficient in. You also add your proficiency bonus to any DCs your dragon companion may have.

• Its initial hit point maximum equals its normal maximum, and subsequently it gains one hit die per level, rolling to increase its hit points each level as a player character would.

• The dragon takes its turn on your initiative, though it doesn't take an action unless you command it to. On your turn, you can verbally command the dragon where to move (no action required by you).

• You can use your action to verbally command it to take the Attack, Dash, Disengage, Dodge, or Help action, or any other action listed in its stat block. Once you have the Extra Attack feature, you can make one weapon attack yourself when you command the dragon to take the Attack action.

• If you are incapacitated or absent, your dragon companion acts on its own, focusing on protecting you and itself. It never requires your command to use its reaction, such as when making an opportunity attack.

• Your dragon follows the same rules as player characters for healing through hit dice and death saving throws.

• While traveling through your favored terrain with only the dragon, you can move stealthily at a normal pace.

Exceptional Training

---

By 7th level, you and your dragon are an expert fighting duo. On any of your turns when your dragon hasn't attacked, you can use a bonus action to command the dragon to take the Dash, Disengage, Dodge, or Help action on its turn.

In addition, on any of your turns when you do not make an attack or cast a spell, you can use your bonus action to command your companion to make a single attack.

Draconic Fury

---

By 11th level, your dragon companion becomes Large, and can make two attacks when you command it to use the Attack action.

Share Spells

---

From 15th level, when you cast a spell targeting yourself, you can also affect your dragon companion with the spell; or, when you cast a spell for which you are the point of origin, you may instead use your dragon companion as the spell's point of origin. The dragon must be within 30 feet of you.

Training Points

While your dragon may begin life as a wyrmling, you can help it to become more powerful as it ages. Starting at 3rd level, you have 3 Training Points. You gain 1 additional point every time you gain a Ranger level. You may spend these Points to grant your dragon new or improved abilities.

Dragon Training Rules

---

During your adventures, you may train your companion in a new Technique. You must declare which Technique you would like your dragon to learn and expend the required number of Training Points.

Once you have begun this training, you must train your dragon for a number of hours equal to the number of required Training points multiplied by three. These do not need to be consecutive and can take place during a short rest, or a maximum of two hours out of a long rest.

List of Techniques

Any numbered Technique (for example, Flight Speed 1) requires that the dragon has learned the previous iteration of that Technique with the same name of the previous number.

Draconic Linguist / Skill

Your dragon gains one of your languages / skill proficiencies. Both of these Techniques may be learned multiple times.

---

If your dragon learns the Bludgeoning Strike Technique, it can now make a Tail Attack.

Tail: Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 1d8 + Strength modifier bludgeoning damage

Claw: Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 1d6 + Strength modifier slashing damage.

Beast Form

Draconic Fear

---

Your dragon can take the Frightful Presence action. It must complete a short or long rest before taking this action again.

Frightful Presence: Each creature of the dragon’s choice that is within 120 feet of the dragon and aware of it must succeed on a DC 10 Wisdom saving throw or become frightened for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a creature’s saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to the dragon’s Frightful Presence for the next 24 hours.

Wing Beat

---

Your dragon can now take the Wing Beat action.

Wing Attack: The dragon beats its wings. Each creature within 10 feet of the dragon must succeed on a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or take 2d6 + Strength modifier bludgeoning damage and be knocked prone.

Ability Score Improvement

---

In addition to these Techniques, your dragon companion will gain more power as you increase in level. Whenever you gain an Ability Score Improvement you may choose to increase your dragon's ability scores instead of your own.

In addition, when you reach 8th and 16th level, you can increase one of your dragon's ability scores by 1 in addition to any other increases.
