Shadows of Dakaron

The World of Dakaron – a unique fantasy setting that has everything from a creeping desert, a living forest, powerful beings struggling for control behind the scenes, and a variety of races and cultures trying to survive it all.

Pact of the Steed

Your patron has gifted you with one of their finest steeds. When you gain this feature, choose a creature to act as your Steed. Your Steed should fit the theme of your patron; for example, a skeletal warhorse for Keppli (Pact of the Undying) or a black unicorn for Drendari (Pact of the Shadows).

Your steed only takes the appearance of your chosen creature. Your steed uses the statistics of a riding horse, but its total Hit Points are equal to half of your total (rounded down).

Your steed can understand any languages you know, but cannot speak. If you give it an order, it will try to fulfill your request to the best of its ability. In combat, the steed shares your initiative and is incapable of taking any action. If you become separated from your steed it will use its movement to get back to you, assuming no order is given.

You can summon your steed to an unoccupied space within 5ft of you as an action. You can also dismiss your steed as a bonus action, teleporting it to a pocket dimension. If your steed dies, you can perform a 1-hour ritual to revive and resummon it.
