Dragoon

          Named after the fiercest of flying creatures, the mighty Dragons. Dragoons or Dragon Knights are typically trained from a young age to fight aerial combatants, able to surprise their foes with the ability to strike at them mid flight with deadly lances and spears without the need of a flying mount themselves. Dragoons usually hail from mountainous regions though they can be found anywhere that flying creatures are a threat. Dragoons tend to style their armour after the beast for which they are named, this includes winged motifs, horns, claws and even tails. While not unskilled at fighting in a conventional way, Dragoons prefer to use hit and run tactics, Leaping onto/into their enemies to strike then moving out of range. Some claimed to have seen Dragoons executing this daring attack style mid air with out ever touching the ground.
