Dragon Covenant
At 1st level, you have survived a dangerous ritual which has magically infused you with the blood of a powerful dragon. This blood grants you abilities that the average person could only dream of, and marks you as a member of the legendary Dragon Knights. You can choose which type of dragon blood you have been infused with, and this choice will effect some of your Dragoon features. With the power of a dragon running through your veins, you also gain the ability to create minor sensory effects and exhale destructive energy from your mouth.

Breath Weapon
You can use your action to exhale destructive energy. Your dragon covenant determines the size, shape, damage type, and saving throw of this feature. When you use your breath weapon, each creature in the area must make a saving throw. A creature takes damage equal to ?d6 + your Charisma modifier on a failed save, or half as much on a successful save. The question mark is equal to half your Dragoon level (rounded up). You can use this ability once per turn. You can use this feature twice, and you regain any expended uses when you finish a long rest.

If you have no uses of this feature remaining, you can sacrifice three of your hit die to perform the technique. When you do this, you roll the three hit die and take necrotic damage equal to the result. This damage cannot be reduced or negated in any way.

Breath Weapon Save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Draconic Affinity
As an action, you can create small sensory effects appropriate to the colour of your dragon, similar to the ones described in the Prestidigitation spell. For example, a Dragoon infused with red dragon blood might be able to create small flickering flames or heat up food, while someone infused with silver dragon blood could create a light mist or chill objects and food. The extent of your draconic affinity is determined by the DM, but it should grow more powerful as you gain levels in this class.

Eye for Detail
At 1st level, you can easily discern the value and rarity of gems, art pieces, and magical items. You can spend 1 minute studying a gem or art piece, after which you learn its exact value. Additionally, if it is a gemstone, you learn what kind of gemstone it is. If it's an art piece, you learn how old it is.

Furthermore, you can cast the Identify spell on an object, but only as a 10 minute ritual. When you cast the Identify spell using this feature, you do not learn if any spells are affecting the item you touch, and you do not learn if it was created by a spell.

You don't require material components for the spell when you cast it using this feature. Your spellcasting ability for this spell is Charisma.

Draconic Traits
At 2nd level, your body has begun to adapt to the powerful blood that flows through you. You can choose one of the following draconic traits to gain. You can change your draconic trait, but it comes at a price. During a long rest, you can force your body to reject your current trait and adapt to a new one. When you finish the long rest, you gain two levels of exhaustion.

Eyes
Your eyes become draconic. You gain proficiency with the Wisdom (Perception) and Intelligence (Investigation) skills. You also have advantage on any Wisdom (Perception) or Intelligence (Investigation) checks based on sight, and advantage on saving throws against illusions.

Fortitude
You body gains the resilience of a mighty dragon. You gain resistance to your dragon damage type (see your Dragon Covenant feature), and when you finish a long rest you gain temporary hit points equal to your half your Dragoon level + your Charisma modifier (a minimum of 1).

Heart
You gain the strength of a dragon's heart. When you finish a long rest, you regain an additional amount of expended hit die equal to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of 1). Additionally, if you are reduced to 0 hit points and not outright killed, you can make a Charisma saving throw against a DC equal to 6 + the damage dealt. On a successful save, you are reduced to 1 hit point instead of 0 hit points. You cannot benefit from this trait again until you have finished a long rest.

Horns
A number of horns grow from the crown of your head. You can use these horns as a melee weapon to attack, dealing 1d6 bludgeoning or piercing damage (your choice). You can use your Strength, Dexterity, or Charimsa modifier for the attack and damage rolls of your horns attack. If you score a critical hit with your horns, the target becomes unbalanced until the start of your next turn. Additionally, psychic damage that you take is reduced by an amount equal to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of 1), and you have advantage on saving throws against being charmed or frightened.

Scales
A thin layer of scales covers your body. Your scales grant you an AC equal to 10 + your Dexterity modifier + your Charisma modifier. If your scales would grant you an AC that is higher than the armour that you are wearing, then you can use the AC granted by your scales instead of your armour. You cannot wield a shield and get this benefit.

Tail
Your spine extends and you gain a muscular tail. You gain proficiency with the Dexterity (Acrobatics) skill, or expertise if you are already proficient with it. You also have advantage on Strength (Athletics) and Dexterity (Acrobatics) checks based on balance, jumping, or leaping, and advantage on saving throws against being knocked prone.

Dragoon Arts
At 2nd level, your dragon blood allows you to perform special techniques called dragoon arts. If any of these techniques deal dragon damage, then the damage type becomes the type of dragon blood that flows through your veins (see your Dragon Covenant feature). As an action, you can perform one of the following techniques.

You can use this feature six times, and you regain any expended uses when you finish a short or long rest. You gain more uses of this feature as you gain levels in this class (see the Dragoon Feature Table).
