Dragon Knight

Those who survive the perilus initiation into the order are granted audience before the Dragon Lords who rule the Draconis Dominus. In fervent honor, these worthy champions bow and receive the title of 'Wyrm Knight' and are bestowed a name (derived from the players chosen Draconic Aspect / Element) and a Wyrmheart Blessing which is infused into the Knight's soul granting them the ability to emulate the powers of Dragons. In the Case of Cassirahm Al-Valelord, his heritage and affinity are cloesly tied to Nebura and the Blue Dragons that inhabit it's skies.

3rd-level Dragon Knight feature

Your Draconic Aspect is determined by the region in which your character participated in the Ascension Ceremony. For example, characters from 'Nebura' are Blue Dragons. The colour of your Draconic Aspect determines your inherent element and the type of Wyrmheart Enhancements available to learn. 

Additionally, you learn how to speak, read and write in Draconic and you gain proficiency Intelligence (History).

For the purposes of this version of the Sub-Class, only the Blue Dragon Knight Wyrmheart Enhancements will be available.
