Path of Dragons

Warriors of this path harness their draconic heritage into mighty strength. Barbarians following the Path of Dragons draw their power from their draconic blood, a draconic ancestor, a blessing from a dragon, or a spiritual connection to a dragon.

These Barbarians channel the power of dragons to destroy their foes. Over time some of these powerhouses of draconic influence learned to channel the essence of more than one type of dragon. These barbarians are seen as champions of their clans, with this power inspiring fear, awe, or both.

Draconic Infusion

At 3rd level, you gain the power of one specific type of dragon from the table below.
