Base Class: Barbarian
Barbarians tap into primal powers, and a barbarian of this path taps into one of the most ancient and primeval of them all: the power of dragons.
Some say this path was born during the rage of dragons by mortals tapping into the primal rage as it washed across the world, others say that only those with latent dragon blood coursing though them can walk this path. what all can agree on is the result is a being to be feared.
As with most barbarian, ones fallowing this path tend towards chaos, as they contain potent destructive power that paces at the edges of the cage, just waiting to be unleashed, some particularly those rare individuals that channel metallic colors, may be exceptions to this tendency.
Draconic Wrath
When you choose this path at 3rd level, when you enter a rage , you can choose to make your rage bonus damage deal elemental damage matching your draconic type (shown in table below).
Additionally , when you enter a rage you can take on aspects of a draconic entity, growing savage natural weapons as claws grow from your hands, fangs sprout from your maw, and a vicious lashing tail grows from your back. your claws deal 1d4 slashing damage, your fangs deal 1d8 piercing damage, and your lashing tail does 1d6 bludgeoning damage and has the reach property.
whenever you attack with one of these natural weapons using the attack action on your turn, if you are not carrying any weapon or shield, you can make a single unarmed strike with your claws as a bonus action.
