Fire Dragoon

The Fire Dragoons are bold and reckless wanderers, ever seeking the next battle or blazing trail. Known for their signature crimson gaze, these warriors are forged by fire and freedom, mastering versatile weapons through relentless training in untamed wilds and forgotten roads.

Their fighting style is aggressive and adaptive—striking with precision, leaping into danger without hesitation, and wielding fire as both symbol and weapon. Though they possess only minor elemental magic, they use it with deadly efficiency, igniting their weapons and unleashing fiery blasts in the heat of combat.

Fire Dragoons are more than warriors—they are self-made legends. They oppose tyrants, challenge monsters, and stand as champions of defiance and grit.

Draconic Leap

📏 Enhanced Jump

You gain resistance to falling damage.
In addition, when you make a High Jump or Long Jump without a running start, calculate your jump distance as follows:

• Standing Jump Distance (in feet) = your Acrobatics modifier + Strength modifier, rounded down to the nearest multiple of 5.

Example: Acrobatics +7 and Strength +4 = total 11 → jump distance = 10 feet.

Note: Your maximum jump height is still limited by environmental constraints such as ceilings, magical barriers, or confined spaces. The DM may reduce your jump height or redirect your leap based on available room.

 

🌀 Aerial Strike (Jump Attack)

Once per turn, you may use your Action to initiate a Draconic Leap:

• You leap vertically up to your full jump height.

• You remain airborne until the start of your next turn.

• While airborne, you are considered out of melee range of most creatures (unless they can fly or have reach).

• You may still be targeted by ranged attacks and spells.

At the start of your next turn, you descend rapidly toward the battlefield:

• Choose a landing space within 5 feet of horizontal drift per 10 feet fallen.
  (Ex: If you fell 50 feet, you can land up to 25 feet away horizontally.)

• This movement does not consume movement or action.

Then, as part of this ability, you make one melee weapon attack with the following properties:

• The attack is made with advantage.

• On a hit, it deals extra weapon damage based on your Dragoon subclass level:

🔼 Dragoon Level Scaling

• At 10 combined Dragoon levels: Multiply your jump distance by 5.

• At 20 combined Dragoon levels: Multiply your jump distance by 10.

Blazing Dynamo

Your mastery of flame and form empowers your strikes with searing precision.
