Dragoon

In your past, you had an encounter with a dragon, be it getting saved by one, having your little village razed by a dragon, or just watching a dragon fly off in the sunset.
That experience was what made you. Because of that event, you decided to learn ancient techniques on how to fight alongside or against dragons. You chose to follow the path of a dragoon.

Level 3: Jump

At 3rd level you finally learn the first and very basic technique of the Dragoons. You focus on the power of your own feet, and jump high in the air, using the pure Strength of your own feet and weapon to hit an enemy with a powerful Jump Attack.

As a bonus action, you can make a ranged attack using your Strength or Dexterity. On a hit, the creature takes 1d4 damage, as well as your normal weapon damage. The range of this attack is equal to half your walking speed.

This action can be used an amount of times equal to your Strength modifier. You regain all spent uses of this feature when you finish a Long Rest. At 6th level the damage die increases to 1d6, 1d8 at 10th level and 1d10 at 15th level.

Arts of the Dragoon

When you choose this archetype at 3rd level, you learn techniques that are fueled by special dice called dragoon dice.

• Dragoon Techniques. At level 3 you learn 2 Jump Techniques from the Jumps Table. You learn one additional techniques your choice at 7th, 10th, 15th and 18th level. Each time you learn new techniques, you can also replace one technique you know with a different one. You can use only one technique per attack. The range of your techniques is equal to your Jump Attack's range, unless it's otherwise specified on the technique.

• Dragoon Dice. You have four dragoon dice, which are d6s. A dragoon die is expended when you use it. You regain all of your expended dragoon dice when you finish a short or long rest. You gain another dragoon die at 7th level and one more at 15th level.

• Saving Throws. Some of your techniques require your target to make a saving throw to resist the technique's effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows: Techniques save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength modifier.
