[edit] Dragoon Overview Characteristics: You combine fast, hard-hitting melee attack power with modest ranged attack ability, and shift easily from melee to ranged combat. You are resilient in battle, but your real strength lies in hit-and-run attacks. Religion: Dragoons favor deities of justice and battle. They often revere Bahamut, Erathis, or Kord. Many unaligned or evil dragoons pay homage to Tiamat, the evil god of wealth, greed, and envy. Races: Humans, halflings, dragonborn, and eladrin are all sometimes drawn to serve as dragoons.
