Draconic Bond

As the result of your bond with your dragon companion, you gain the ability to assume a dragonlike form. As an action, you may merge with your drake companion:

• Your transformation lasts for 10 minutes. It ends early if you are knocked unconscious or you drop to 0 hit points.
• You gain all of the statistics of a Red Dragon Wyrmling, except for its hit points, which is equal to your current hit points + your drake companion's current hit points and your race is considered dragon for the duration.
• When the transformation ends, your and your drake companion's return to what they were before the transformation.
• All of your armor and gear is absorbed into your new form and their affects are nullified.
• You may only take the actions found within the Red Dragon Wyrmling's statblock.
• You may use this feature a number of times per day equal to half of your proficiency bonus, rounded up.
• When used below level 5, you gain 2 levels of exhaustion after exiting dragon form. Between levels 5 and 9, you gain 1 level of exhaustion after exiting dragon form. From level 9 onwards, there is no exhaustion penalty for using this form.
