Message: <blockquote data-quote="DragonLordAcar" data-source="post: 8197290" data-attributes="member: 7029653">So my DM is allowing me to play a dragon in human form under the condition that it is like a curse so that I can't just go full dragon on any poor dungeon boss. You know... because mother ****ing dragon. The idea is that this is a ritual performed to either punish members of the dragon race to a mortal's body heavily limiting their powers or as a way for one to more easily live among mortal races. This is what I currently have after looking around a bit at both homebrew and official classes.I know it is powerful and for my group, I am not worried about ability scores being too high as we roll 4d6 reroll 1s as our starting stats. What I am worried about is that I will show up the rest of my party with my abilities and steal the spotlight. In principle, this is supposed to represent the combination of a dragon's powerful physique and their innate magic (based on Pathfinder Magus class that someone made a 5e conversion for but fewer spells because that class is too OP for 5e but still my favorite class).Humanoid Cursed Dragon: this class is only available to dragons and sentient, non-huminoid half-dragons-qualifies for dragon, half-dragon, dragonborn, or any other dragon race feats-count as both dragon and humanoid (race chosen as the humanoid form) for item effects such as attunement and bane weapons-HD: d8-Saves: as dragon-Skills: choose 2 from Acrobatics, Arcana, Athletics, History, Insight, Intimidation, Perception, and Survival-Armor Proficiencies: shields-Weapon Proficiencies: simple and martial weapons-Tool Proficiencies: none-Starting Equipment: or 4d4*10gp-(a) a dagger, arcane focus, and component pouch or (b) a dagger, longbow, and 20 arrows-(a) a martial weapon and a shield or (b) two martial weapons-(a) a light crossbow and 20 bolts or (b) two handaxes-(a) a dungeoneer's pack or (b) an explorer's packLv1:-Draconic Resilience: When not wearing armor your AC is 13+Dex. At Lv10, this becomes 13+Dex+Cha. You can retain this benefit when wielding a shield. You also gain 1 additional Hp per level.-Draconic Restriction: any immunity to damage you have becomes resistance and any resistance you had is removed. Blindsight is also reduced by half. These return to normal values at 15th level.-Draconic Attacks I: Attacks with natural weapons and weapons attuned with deal an additional 1d2 of your dragon energy type and 1d2 force damage. Attuning to a weapon takes 1 hour of uninterrupted concentration. You can attune to up to half your Int modifier (minimum 1) of manufactured weapons at a time.-Spells: Spell progression as a Warlock and spell slots are regained on a short rest. You use the Sorcerer spell list. You are unable to learn spells that conflict with your dragon energy type (for example, red dragons can not learn cold spells and shadow dragons can not learn radiant spells). You also learn the Drake Strike cantrip.    -School: evocation   -Casting Time: 1 action    -Range: 10ft    -Components: V, S    -Duration: instantaneous    -You are capable of conjuring the power of your dragon heritage into your hands, lashing out to send a wave of energy to hit an opponent in range. Make     a melee spell attack. On a hit, they take 2d6 damage, the damage type corresponding to your elemental affinity. At 5th level, the damage increases to     3d6. At 11th level, it increases once more to 4d6, and at 17th level, it reaches 5d6.Lv2:-Font of Magic: You gain Sorcery Points as a Sorcerer. These can only be used on Metamagic and healing. If points are spent to heal on a short rest, you add your Cha and Con to a single HD rolled per point spent this way. You can spend as many points on healing up to half your level (minimum 1) each day.-Limited Metamagic I: You learn 2 Metamagics. You can only use one Metamagic per Spell. If you have no Sorcery points after a short rest, you can choose to gain 1 point but take a level of exhaustion. If you already have 2 or more levels of exhaustion, you can not gain any Sorcery Points.Lv3:-Spellsword: You can take a -2 to all attack rolls and/or spell DC for the round to cast a spell with a casting time of a standard action using your bonus action. You can also quicken the spell for 1 Sorcery point if it has a casting time greater than a standard action but it suffers an additional -2 to attack roll or-2 to spell DC. The spell must be cast with an open hand or with a focus costing at least (100gp*spell Lv)^2 with cantrips counting as 0.5 levels for this calculation (if this focus is a held item such as a weapon or shield, this cost is in addition to any cost of the item including magical enhancements). If the focus is added to the item after creation, double this cost. This counts as an arcane focus. Conversely, you can instead take a -2 to only the bonus action's attack roll to make an additional weapon attack.-Draconic Talent: You can learn new spells that do not conflict with your energy type like a wizard but this takes 4 times the amount of time and materials to commit to memory. If it can be cast as a ritual, you can cast it as one and takes half the time and materials.Lv4:-Ability Score Improvement ILv5:-Spellstrike: You can prepare to cast a spell on a bonus action and release it with a weapon attack. If the attack scores a critical hit, the spell does as well. If the spell does not have an attack roll, it instead imposes disadvantage to the save on a critical. If the spell is AOE, you can still be targeted by it including critical hits. You always fail the save of any damaging AOE spells cast this way with this damage ignoring Evasion and like abilities. Lines can point away from you or sweep left or right of you and cones always point away from you.-Extra Attack ILv6:-Elemental Affinity: You add your Cha to spells that deal damage of your dragon energy type or force damage. You also gain resistance to force damage.-Combat Style: You gain a Fighter combat style.Lv7:-Improved Spellsword: You no longer suffer the -2 to attack rolls and saves imposed by the Spellsword feature.Lv8:-Ability Score Improvement II:Lv9:-Spell Learning I: You learn one spell from each spell list other than Sorcerer but still suffer the limitations that your sorcerer spells doLv10:-Extra Attack II-Draconic Attacks II: Weapon attacks now deal an additional 1d4 of your dragon energy type and 1d4 force damage.-Limited Metamagic II: You learn 1 additional Metamagic. You can use 2 Metamagics on a single spell by paying 2 additional Sorcery Points. If you have no Sorcery points after a short rest, you can choose to gain 2 points but take a level of exhaustion. If you already have 2 or more levels of exhaustion, you do not gain any Sorcery Points.Lv11:-Draconic Blast: You can sacrifice one of your attacks to launch a blast of energy in a 30ft line or 15ft cone (chosen at the time of use). This damage is 1d8 or your dragon energy type and 1d8 force damage. This increases by 1d8 of your dragon energy type at 15th level and 1d8 force damage at 19th level. The save DC is 8+half your level+Con and the save used is based on your dragon origins (for example, a white dragon's save could be a Con save while a brass dragon's is a Dex save).Lv12:-Ability Score Improvement III:Lv13:-Returning Form I: You can spend 2 sorcery points to grow draconic wings for 30 minutes. You also gain a draconic tail during this time but can not be used to attack. This can be canceled at any time with any time remaining being waisted. This fly speed is equal to twice their base speed.-Elemental Mastery: You can spend 1 sorcery point to ignore resistance to your dragon energy type and force and treat immunity to these as resistance for 1 minute.Lv14:-Ability Score Improvement IV:Lv15:-Dragon Prestige: Those with half the HD you possess within 30ft of you must make a Wis save upon seeing you. On a failure, they are either frightened for 1 minute if hostile to you or you gain a +2 to Persuasion checks so long as they do not conflict with their moral beliefs for 10minutes. A success makes the creature immune for 24 hours.Lv16:-Ability Score Improvement V:Lv17:-Limited Metamagic III: You learn 1 additional Metamagic.
