Way of the Dragon

Ancient Dragon Lords would occasionally select and train mortals to become their Honor Guard and act as liaisons with the outside worlds. This was a high honor among mortals and is no easy role. These mortals would often take after the ideals of their Dragon Lord and learn to execute what few draconic techniques their mortal body could withstand. Having to spend years and sometimes centuries mastering these skills, they were known as Monks. Monks that follow the Way of the Dragon.

The damage dealt is equal to 1d4 per ki point spent, up to a maximum equal to 1/4 the Monks level. The type of damage is based off of the Breath Weapon of a Draconic Ancestory, excluding poison.
