Base Class: Ranger
Your connection to the natural world takes the form of a celestial spirit, which can manifest in physical form as a Pegasus. As your powers grow, your Pegasus shares power as well, eventually turning into an Alicorn. Along the way, you gain an increasing share of the awe-inspiring power of storms.

Hello Old Friend
3rd-Level Storm Warden Feature
As an action, you can magically summon the Pegasus that is bound to you. It appears in an unoccupied space of your choice within 30 feet of you.
The Pegasus is friendly to you and your companions, and it obeys your commands. See its game statistics in the accompanying Celestial Companion stat block, which uses your proficiency bonus (PB) in several places. Whenever you summon the Pegasus, choose a damage type listed in its Celestial Essence trait. You can determine the cosmetic characteristics of the Pegasus, such as its color, its mane texture, or any visible effect of its Celestial Essence; your choice has no effect on its game statistics.
In combat, the Pegasus 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 Pegasus can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge.
The Pegasus remains until it is reduced to 0 hit points, until you use this feature to summon the Pegasus again, or until you die. Anything the drake was wearing or carrying is left behind when the Pegasus vanishes.
Once you summon the Pegasus, 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.
You may use your Pegasus as a mount, but without its fly speed.
