Dragoncaller
It’s no secret that some people gain their powers thanks to a deal made with an otherworldly being. Those deals, however, have been known to be quite one-sided, the power coming at a cost of freedom exchanged for servitude. For some, that’s simply too much to give up, yet they continued to call out across the cosmos for something looking for not a servant, but a partner. And something answered. The overlooked spirits of many creatures and objects, and among them strongest, the draconic spirits. And they were willing to forge a pact that gave life to the dragoncallers.
The dragoncaller is a class that is centered on the synchrony and teamwork of a human and a spirit that they summon. With the spirit being able to fulfil many roles and the human not being left behind, it’s the power of them combined that makes a dragoncaller a sight to behold.
Passive
You gain a +1 DR.
Class level 1
1. – Draconic Companions (3 FP, restricted – time, spell-like)
You gain the ability to summon a draconic spirit. The spirit appears in the nearest unoccupied space within 5ft. of you. Your draconic spirit lasts until you release it as an action, it dies or for 1 hour before disappearing. You must then wait an hour before resummoning. You can only have one spirit summoned. The spirit is friendly to you and your companions, and it obeys your commands, however if it is mistreated or abused (GM decision) it will leave you early and you then cannot summon another draconic spirit for 1 week. In combat, the creature has its own initiative count. It can move and use its reaction on its own, but the only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge action, unless you take a bonus action on your turn to command it to take a different action. If you are incapacitated, the draconic spirit can take any action of its choice, not just Dodge. You have the choice between a drake or a pseudodragon.
General Traits
Magically Attuned – The draconic spirit has access to a limited number of draconic incantations. These incantations function similarly to spells, but are considered spell-like effects instead. The spirit can cast the incantation as long as it meets the prerequisites and pays the FP cost noted. The CL prerequisite refers to the CL of the summoner, not the spirit. When an incantation mentions any modifiers, they are the modifiers of the spirit, not the summoner. The spirit’s spellcasting modifier for the incantations is Intelligence.
Mount – The spirit can be ridden by a different creature. Spirits with this trait cannot be given commands without being mounted. It takes an action to mount or dismount. While riding the spirit, the rider’s movement speed(s) become(s) 0, however it moves along with the mount when it moves. While mounted, the rider can take the Ready action to prepare to attack as part of the mount’s movement.
