Renamed from Red Dragon Disciple and opened up to the other dragon types.

Overhaul Changes

  • Make it a general Dragon Disciple (rename the class as such) and at level 1 of Dragon Disciple you can choose your upgrades via. a feat. Keep most of the bonuses the same (they are in the original class anyway) which means we can use the HD changes nicely.
    • Difficulty with the VFX for the dragon breath but we might be able to have a bonus feat that has prereqs based on the original feat choice and therefore pop in that feat as the only option
      • Alternatively have the ability fire off a new ActionCast... action?
      • Need to code it so the packages pick Red by default to not break things with modules like Deekin in HotU
    • The Fire Immunity can be removed and done with effects to have different damage immunities
    • Wings would need recolouring at least - could use texture overrides or use SetCreatureWingType() is easy enough OnPlayerLevelUp.
  • Do we add bonus spells as per the original? Annoyingly you can't do 1, 1, 0, 1, 1... but maybe we can fudge something with the floating variable and integer maths it results in

Overhaul Description

(PRESTIGE CLASS)
It is rumored that the magical powers of sorcerers and bards is somehow connected to the presence of dragon blood in their family tree. Dragon Disciples are sorcerers, and sometimes bards, who use their magical power as a catalyst to ignite their red dragon blood, realizing its fullest potential. They prefer a life of exploration to a cloistered existence. Already adept at magic, many pursue adventure, especially if it furthers their goal of finding out more about their draconic heritage. They often feel drawn to areas known to harbor dragons.
