# Drake Cohort
The battle seemed endless. It had already raged for weeks, but neither side would back down. Both sides were also too well fortified for the other to take. So instead they simply fought in planes between the fortifications to try and bleed the other side out of soldiers. "What a mess." Etenguard thought. The Perennial Keep was vital for trade in the Draxonec Empire, so it had to be defended. So when a detachment of enemy troops where sent to capture it, they had to be stopped. The issue was the only suitable place for the battle was on the planes just before the valley pass that lead to the keep. The plan had been to quickly wipe out the enemy detachment, but spies had revealed our advance so they quickly built a small fort of their own. Now, both sides are locked here unable to move. Us because we have to defend the pass, them because they do not stand a chance against us if they get caught in the open with no terrain advantage. So instead we are locked here in this stalemate. Also neither side can spare the men needed to give meaningful reinforcements. That left us with the option to slowly kill each other until one side's moral runs out, or winter gets here first and kills all of us. "Thats the most likely thing to happen right now." Etenguard thought. "Both sides have invested too much already to simply surrender, and we aren't killing each other fast enough for this to end by winter." "If that happens we all die because the winter's here are very harsh. That and dang Yeti's will come down from mountains and they don't care whose side you are on. All of us are lunch." Etenguard shuddered at that thought. He had been up here in the winter before and had seen what those creatures did to anything weak and starving from the lack of food the winter brings. It was not a happy memory.

A loud explosion, followed by the cheers of his fellow men snapped Etenguard back to reality. He rushed outside unsure of what was going on. The first thing he noticed was that the enemy fort was burning. Surrounding the burning fort was the greatest fighting force of the the Draxonec Empire. The drakes. In a matter of minutes the entire enemy force fell. The battle was over, far sooner than expected, especially since the drakes were often kept on the front lines because almost no other creature could stand before a platoon of them. To see them here was a huge relief.
## Creature Cohorts
A creature cohort is a combined race and class that are meant to be taken together to create something close to a monster that the party would normally fight. Cohorts can be used in many different ways, either as a PC, a more powerful familiar, a sidekick, or even an unusual NPC.

\columnbreak

#### PC Cohorts
There are a couple key differences between a PC Cohort and a sidekick or familiar cohort. If a DM chooses to make a Cohort NPC, they may add whatever features to that NPC they like.   
1. PC Cohorts get a character background while a sidekick or familiar does not.
2. Only PC Cohorts get access to a subclass.

## Drake Racial Features
Drakes are essentially smaller dragons. There are many differences between drakes and dragons though. Drakes are actually social animals, often living in prides of 10-40 drakes. Drakes also tend to prefer living near or inside the cities or camps of other hummanoid creatures. These drakes are often welcome, as they generally provide aid to the settlement they live near in exchange for having a relatively stable home. Drakes also help protect the settlement, often working as a special attack squad. Some drakes even serve as mounts, creating one of the most feared cavalry forces known to man.  
**Ability Score Increases.** Your Strength increases by 2 and your Constitution increases by 1.  
**Age.** Drakes, being related to dragons have a long life span. They reach maturity around 50 years of age and live to be around 500-600 years old.  
**Alignment.** Drakes vary greatly in alignment, though the subspecies generally fall somewhere within a specific alignment. Dark, Ice, and Poison drakes tend toward evil. Earth, Light, and Gravity drakes tend toward good. Fire and Storm drakes are generally chaotic, while Ice and Psychic drakes tend to be lawful.   
**Size.** You are a freshly hatched drake. You are about 3ft long and around 1.5 ft tall. Your size is small, but you will grow.  
**Speed.** Your base walking speed is 30ft.  
**Darkvision.** Your draconic relation gives you superior vision in dark and dim Conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in Darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in Darkness, only Shades of Gray.  
**Draconic Nature.** Your creature type is counted as Dragon for spells and effects.   
**Handless** You lack any hands with which you can wield weapons. You can perform basic functions with your front legs that require no more than simple pushes or pulls, but you cannot use any item that requires the use of hands or needs to be held. For example, you can open a door with a pushdown handle or turn the pages of a book, but you could not wield weapons or lock a door with a key.

Starting at 2nd level, you can use your action to change your shape to look like a member of a different race or back to your drake form. When you first earn this feature, chose a different race. Your Humaized form looks like a member of race. There are always also some clues that you are not entirely a normal member of the race you look like, unless you take efforts to mask them. Namely an unnatural beauty, wings and a tail still sprout from your back, and patches of scales are visible on your body. You gain none of the racial features of your Humanized form.  While in this form, you lose access to you your natural weapons, though your unarmed strikes now deal 1d4 + Strength modifier points of bludgeoning damage. While in this form, you still have access to your Breath Weapon, but its damage die are reduced to d6s instead of d8s while in your Humanized form. Anything you are wearing or carrying while in your Humanized either merges with you or becomes worn by the drake. The item has to be specifically made to alter its shape to be able to be worn. For example a bag or pouch with an expanding and contracting strap could be worn by both forms.

### Subracial Growth
Starting at 3rd level, your Drake subrace begins to grow in power. (If you did not choose choose drake as your starting race use the same subclass as the drake you choose the elemental damage of your breath attack.)

Beginning at 17th level, you have gained enough control over your elemental energy that you can fire it in an attack called the Elemental Burst.

The damage type is the same type of damage that your breath weapon deals. When you take the Attack action on your turn, you may choose to take either your multiattack option or you make 2 elemental burst attacks.
### Breath Sweep
Beginning at 18th level, you have gained the ability to sweep your breath weapon. When you use your action to use your breath weapon you can declare that you are going to sweep it. Instead of affecting a 5ft wide, 60ft long line, your breath weapon instead affects a 30ft cone. When you do this, you roll 2d4s to determine how many rounds you must wait before you can use your breath weapon again.

\pagebreak

### High Drake Abilities
At 20th level, you have become a fully grown drake and many of your abilities improve. Your bonus to your AC becomes a +3. Your flying speed increases by 40ft. In addition, your normal breath weapon now affects a 5ft wide , 120ft long line, and the swept version affects a 60ft cone.

The creature becomes poisoned, even if it is immune to the poisoned condition. The creature can make and Intelligence saving throw against your spell DC at the end of its turn, ending the effect early on a success. If the creature fails one of these saving throws by 10 or more it becomes stunned for the remaining duration and cannot make any more saving throws to attempt to end the effect early.
#### Mind Crush
Beginning at 14th level, you can expend a 2nd level spell slot to attempt to forcibly read a creature's mind, often destroying that creatures mind in the process. Make a melee spell attack roll against a creature. You have disadvantage on this attack if the target has telepathy or is resistant to psychic damage. On a hit, within the next minute, you can ask the creature 1 question which it must answer as precisely as it can, and it cannot willing tell a lie. For example if you asked a creature how to get to a certain building, it would tell you  all the routes it knows about to get to that location. After the minute has passed the creature's Intelligence score is reduced by 3d6. If this reduction reduces the creature's Intelligence score to 0 the creature is stunned until it gains 1 point to its Intelligence. Healing magic of 6th level or higher can remove this effect.
### Sonic Drake
Sonic Drakes use high frequency sounds to disrupt their foes in battles and destroy structures with great ease. Adult drakes even have an ability to perceive creatures that it would normally be impossible to detect because they can deter the vibrations the creatures make as they move.
#### Dizzying Attack
Beginning at 3rd level, when you score a critical hit against a living creature, that creature must make a Constitution saving throw against your Breath Weapon DC. On a failure, the creature take either a bonus action or an action on its turn but not both, its speed is halved, and it cannot take reactions. These effects end at the end of the creature's next turn.
#### Resonate
Starting at 6th level, double any thunder damage you deal to any structures or any construct type monster.
#### Critical Eyes
Beginning at 10th level, your eyesight has developed to the point that you can easily spot your foes weak points. You now score critical hits on rolls of 19-20.

### Storm Drake
Storm Drakes are the most combat oriented drakes, being able to easy wade into the thickest fights and come out relatively unscathed. Adult drakes are infamous for their ability to turn the tides of battle single handedly.
#### Absorbing Armor
Beginning at 3rd level, when you are hit by a creature's melee attack, you can use your reaction to reduce that damage by 1d10+ your constitution modifier. Once you use this feature you must complete a long rest before you can do so again. At 14th level, you can use this feature twice before you have to complete a long rest.
#### Enraged Frenzy
When ever you are at 1/2 hit points or less you enter an enraged state. While in this enraged state, you have advantage on attack rolls against other creatures, but attacks against you also have advantage. Your attacks deal an extra 1d6 lightning damage while in your enraged state.
#### Wrath of the Storm
During your turn, if you are in your enraged state, you can choose to take a second action during your turn. This second action must either be the Attack action, use your Breath Weapon, or hold the action. You can use this feature a number of times equal to one half of your proficiency bonus rounded down. After you complete a long rest you regain all expended uses of this feature.
#### Rampaging Beast
Whenever, you reduce a creature's hit points to 0, or you are hit while in your enraged state, you can use your reaction  to move upto half your walking speed and make any single melee attack.
