The College of the Dragon

A rush of wings, a snarl and a burst of flame fill the quiet village air. A few children's gasps are heard as a second burst of flame shoots up into the sky. The crowd applauds the gnome rigged up in the very-realistic paper dragon costume, but the suspicious ones among them can't help but wonder where the fire came from.   A man with a tight-fitting shirt and a loose pair of pants saunters up to a bandit leader. He stares the leader confidently in the eyes while taking a big swig from a gourd, then lifting his fingers to his lips, thumb pressed against middle finger. The bandit laughs, for he has never seen such a poor show of intimidation. The man smirks, snapping his fingers while spitting out the oil he has stored in his cheeks. Moments later the bandit falls backward, whole face smoking and red and the man looks around at the rest of the bandits, lifting the oil to his lips once more in anticipation.   A woman approaches a lord's throne, leading a small party in an attempt to parlay with the lord, to gain access to a secret place. Words prove unsuccessful so she pulls out her lute and strums, a careful spell drawing all the nearby torches' flames into one massive fiery visage. It's commands are enough to persuade the stubborn leader, and the party moves on.
The College of the Dragon is a Bardic college specializing in evocation magic and fire-breathing. While fire is the primary element of this archetype, there are those who have specialized further in dealing in other elements, much like the creatures for whom the school is named.
