Overview
Dragon Knights are imposing dragon-humanoid hybrids originally created as soldiers in an ancient war. They stand tall with scaled skin, draconic features, and often vestigial or functional wings.

Dragon Knight characters combine raw physical power with draconic heritage abilities. Their breath weapon provides area damage, and their draconic resilience makes them durable combatants.
