Way of the Horrid Dragon

A monastic tribe of dragonborn from a forgotten age were adept at pursuing their foes with vicious strikes. At the cost of their body, they were capable of dealing greater damage by infusing their fist strength with their breath weapons. This allowed them to be elementally adept in places where magic was incapable. This proved vicious enough that even elemental creatures feared them.

Horrid Fist Technique

Starting when you choose this tradition at 3rd level, you can sacrifice a use of your breath weapon to infuse your strikes with your elemental sac. This comes as you puncturing yourself, ruining your own body.

As a Bonus Action, take one hitdice of piercing damage to infuse your strikes with your breath weapon element for one minute. This sacrifices a use of your breath weapon at the same time. While your fists are infused with your breath, you deal additional damage equal to your Martial Arts die. You may use an action to remove the element from your fists.

For every 2 ki points expended when activating this feature, you may extend the duration by 1 minute.

 

Draconic Embodiment

At 6th level, Your Horrid Fist Technique is enhanced. You may choose to consume 2 ki points instead of taking the hit dice of damage.

Your entire body is imbued with your draconic essence. Spectral wings unfurl from your body, colored by your element. You gain a fly speed equal to your land speed.

Bleeding Banquet

At 11th level, you learn to feed on your enemy's weakness. When your enemy is Bloody (at half health or less) and you make a successful melee attack, you may expend a ki point to expend a hit die and heal.

Horrid Embodiment

At 17th level, you truly embody the spirit of the Horrid Fist Technique. Not only are you coated, but you're drenched in your draconic essence. In addition to your wings, ethereal horns and a tail appear. You become immune to your draconic element while coated in your essence. Your fly speed is now double your land speed.

Your unarmed attacks sear resistances. Immunity becomes resistance, resistance becomes neutral and neutral becomes vulnerable.
