Oath of Dragon Inheritance

You uphold the tenants of justice, honor and law. Believing you are judge, jury and executioner, you uphold the law to a tee. 

Channel Divinity

When you take this oath at 3rd level, you gain the following two Channel Divinity options.

Dragon's Wrath. You can use your Channel Divinity to channel your dragon's ferocity and smite down your foes. You may add 1d6 to your smite roll and change the radiant damage type to your dragon's damage type.

Induce Fear. You can use your Channel Divinity to Invoke your dragons strength. Your dragon will release a roar like no other and possibly frighten nearby foes with a strength check equal to 10+PB. (at level 7 add the drake's strength modifier 10+PB+STR, at level 15 add your charisma modifier 10+PB+STR+CHA)

A frightened creature has disadvantage on ability checks and attack rolls while the source of its fear is within line of sight. The creature can't willingly move closer to the source of its fear.

If the creature’s true form is concealed by an illusion, shapeshifting, or other effect, that form is revealed while it is frightened.

Drake Companion

3rd-Level Oath of Inheritance Feature

As an action, you can magically summon the drake that is bound to you. It appears in an unoccupied space of your choice within 30 feet of you. Choose it's draconic essence between; Acid, fire, ice, lightning, poison.

The drake is friendly to you and your companions, and it obeys your commands. See its game statistics in the accompanying Drake Companion stat block, which uses your proficiency bonus (PB) in several places. You can determine the cosmetic characteristics of the drake, such as its color, its scale texture, or any visible effect of its Draconic Essence; your choice has no effect on its game statistics.

In combat, the drake shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It can move and use its reaction on its own, but the only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a bonus action on your turn to command it to take another action. That action can be one in its stat block or some other action. If you are incapacitated, the drake can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge.

The drake remains until it is reduced to 0 hit points, until you use this feature to summon the drake again, or until you die. Anything the drake was wearing or carrying is left behind when the drake vanishes.

Once you summon the drake, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher to summon it.
