Raishin, The DracoZerker

Barbarians are some of the oldest warriors in recorded history. The simplicity of might has ruled the worlds for millennia and Barbarians are the embodiment of might.
Although Raishin was born with some innate magic ability she never perused it. Rather letting the draconic essence within here be channelled into a physical medium instead of arcane. Through her father's anger Raishin channels the power of rage to the point it alters her body. Scales, horns, tails and claws as Raishin looses herself deeper in the anger of Dragon.
Its not a power she advertises but has saved her life many times. calling on the strength of Dragons leaves little of her foes alive.

Background Outlander: Feature & Details

You grew up in the wilds, far from civilization and the comforts of town and technology. You've witnessed the migration of herds larger than forests, survived weather more extreme than any city-dweller could comprehend, and enjoyed the solitude of being the only thinking creature for miles in any direction. The wilds are in your blood, whether you were a nomad, an explorer, a recluse, a hunter-gatherer, or even a marauder. Even in places where you don't know the specific features of the terrain, you know the ways of the wild.

Rage [1]
In battle, you fight with primal ferocity. On your turn, you can enter a rage as a bonus action.
While raging, you gain the following benefits if you aren't wearing heavy armor:

  • You have advantage on Strength checks and Strength saving throws.
  • When you make a melee weapon attack using Strength, you gain a bonus to the damage roll that increases as you gain levels as a barbarian, as shown in the Rage Damage column of the Barbarian table.
  • You have resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.
  • If you are able to cast spells, you can't cast them or concentrate on them while raging.

Your rage lasts for 1 minute. It ends early if you are knocked unconscious or if your turn ends and you haven't attacked a hostile creature since your last turn or taken damage since then. You can also end your rage on your turn as a bonus action.
Once you have raged the number of times shown for your barbarian level in the Rages column of the Barbarian table, you must finish a long rest before you can rage again.

Rage Table

Unarmored Defense [1]
While you are not wearing any armor, your armor class equals 10 + your Dexterity modifier + your Constitution modifier. You can use a shield and still gain this benefit.


Danger Sense [1]
At 2nd level, you gain an uncanny sense of when things nearby aren't as they should be, giving you an edge when you dodge away from danger. You have advantage on Dexterity saving throws against effects that you can see, such as traps and spells. To gain this benefit, you can't be blinded, deafened, or incapacitated.

Reckless Attack [1]
Starting at 2nd level, you can throw aside all concern for defense to attack with fierce desperation. When you make your first attack on your turn, you can decide to attack recklessly. Doing so gives you advantage on melee weapon attack rolls using Strength during this turn, but attack rolls against you have advantage until your next turn.


Form of the Beast [3]
Starting when you choose this path at 3rd level, when you enter your rage, you can transform, revealing the bestial power within you. Until your rage ends, you manifest a natural melee weapon, choosing one of the following options each time you rage:

  • Bite
    • Your mouth transforms into a bestial snout or great mandibles (your choice). Your bite deals 1d8 piercing damage on a hit. Once on each of your turns when you damage a creature with your bite, you regain a number of hit points equal to your Constitution modifier (minimum of 1 hit point).
  • Claws
    • Your hands transform into claws, which deal 1d6 slashing damage on a hit. When you take the Attack action on your turn and make an attack with your claws, you can make one additional attack using your claws as part of the same action.
  • Tail
    • You grow a lashing, spiny tail, which deals 1d8 piercing damage on a hit and has the reach property. If a creature you can see within 10 feet of you hits you with an attack roll, you can use your reaction to swipe your tail and roll a d8, applying a bonus to your AC equal to the number rolled, potentially causing the attack to miss you.

On a hit, the rock deals 2d10 bludgeoning damage, and if the target is a creature, it must succeed on a Strength saving throw (DC equals 8 + your proficiency bonus + the modifier of the ability increased by this feat) or be knocked prone.

Feat: Gift of the Metallic Dragon [4]
You’ve manifested some of the power of metallic dragons, granting you the following benefits:

  • Draconic Healing
    You learn the Cure Wounds spell. You can cast this spell without expending a spell slot. Once you cast this spell in this way, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest. You can also cast this spell using spell slots you have. The spell’s spellcasting ability is Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma when you cast it with this feat (choose when you gain the feat).
  • Protective Wings
    You can manifest protective wings that can shield you or others. When you or another creature you can see within 5 feet of you is hit by an attack roll, you can use your reaction to manifest spectral wings from your back for a moment.

You can use this reaction a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

  • The target must use its reaction to make a melee attack against another creature of your choice that you can see.
  • Target takes 2d12 psychic damage.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier (a minimum of once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.


Relentless Rage
Starting at 11th level, your rage can keep you fighting despite grievous wounds. If you drop to 0 hit points while you're raging and don't die outright, you can make a DC 10 Constitution saving throw. If you succeed, you drop to 1 hit point instead.
Each time you use this feature after the first, the DC increases by 5. When you finish a short or long rest, the DC resets to 10.


Feat or ability score


Raishin began training with the monks to control her emotions and twisted Ki, Effects from her Father's soul and influence. The turning point was when she laid waste to a small town in Covania's north called Ayeshencliff wishing to not loose control like that again.
It was during this training she met an unlikely friend known as Balore.
Her training was left incomplete when the Monastery was attacked by an unknown force but she continued with the knowledge she had gained to further her monk training on her own. It has not only calmed her Ki and emotions but has seemed to have a rub off effect on her Father as well. The Red dragon's soul no longer as twisted by hate now seems to be opening up to his daughter during the long lonely nights.

Hit Points

  • Hit Points at 1st Level: 8 + your Constitution modifier

  • You can use Dexterity instead of Strength for the attack and damage rolls of your unarmed strikes and monk weapons.
  • You can roll a d4 in place of the normal damage of your unarmed strike or monk weapon. This die changes as you gain monk levels, as shown in the Martial Arts column of the Monk table.
  • When you use the Attack action with an unarmed strike or a monk weapon on your turn, you can make one unarmed strike as a bonus action. For example, if you take the Attack action and attack with a quarterstaff, you can also make an unarmed strike as a bonus action, assuming you haven't already taken a bonus action this turn.

Certain monasteries use specialized forms of the monk weapons. For example, you might use a club that is two lengths of wood connected by a short chain (called a nunchaku) or a sickle with a shorter, straighter blade (called a kama). Whatever name you use for a monk weapon, you can use the game statistics provided for the weapon on the Weapons page.


Ki [1]
Starting at 2nd level, your training allows you to harness the mystic energy of ki. Your access to this energy is represented by a number of ki points. Your monk level determines the number of points you have, as shown in the Ki Points column of the Monk table.
You can spend these points to fuel various ki features. You start knowing three such features: Flurry of Blows, Patient Defense, and Step of the Wind. You learn more ki features as you gain levels in this class.

When you spend a ki point, it is unavailable until you finish a short or long rest, at the end of which you draw all of your expended ki back into yourself. You must spend at least 30 minutes of the rest meditating to regain your ki points.

Evasion [1] \\
At 7th level, your instinctive agility lets you dodge out of the way of certain area effects, such as a blue dragon's lightning breath or a fireball spell. When you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail.

Stillness of Mind [1]
Starting at 7th level, you can use your action to end one effect on yourself that is causing you to be charmed or frightened.


Draconic heritage is more common than one might think. Among adventures there is always at least one who has some ties back to a True dragon. Nobody has really given much thought to it due to its vulgar nature, Not may brave enough to label Dragons as horney beasts looking for one night stands with lesser species.
Raishin like others has a Dracon as a father, A true Red Dragon named Kalithak but alike others Raishin has failed to peruse the magic power this blood grants. With only minimal arcane power under her control the small power she does wield is enough to make life just a bit easier.

Hit Points

  • Hit Points at 1st Level: 6 + your Constitution modifier
  • Hit Points at Higher Levels: 1d6 (or 4) + your Constitution modifier per sorcerer level after 1st
