Item: The Timeless Bond
You've linked your lifespan to your bound dragon. Your natural physical aging ceases and you gain the Draconic Vitality action, but your soul grows withered and scabrous by the weight of a dragon's experience with time.
Once per week, from any distance, the dragon can use a free action, which has the concentrate trait, to become Quickened for 1 minute. They can use the extra action to Stride, Strike, or to contribute an action to casting a spell. When the dragon uses this ability, you age 10 years and become Drained 3 for 1 hour.
Draconic Vitality 1 (concentrate)
Frequency once per day
Effect Reduce your doomed value by 2. For 1 hour, you gain a +2 status bonus to saves against poisons and diseases, and a status bonus equal to your level to Hit Points you regain from spells with the same tradition as your bound dragon.
Oathbreaker's Calamity Should either party break the oath, you begin aging at an accelerated rate. Every [[/gmr 1d6 #days]]{1d6 days}, you must succeed at a flat DC 14 check or age 10 years and become Drained 3. In turn, the dragon loses years of experience, reducing its age 100 years every time you fail the flat check. If the dragon is de-aged past the time they made the pact, the pact remains, but the dragon loses all memories of you and the pact.
Trait Effects
Contract: A contract is a type of item that magically establishes an agreement between multiple parties and typically grants magical benefits.
Invested: A character can invest only 10 magical items that have the invested trait. None of the magical effects of the item apply if the character hasn’t invested it, nor can it be activated, though the character still gains any normal benefits from wearing the physical item (like a hat keeping rain off their head).
Magical: Something with the magical trait is imbued with magical energies not tied to a specific tradition of magic. Some items or effects are closely tied to a particular tradition of magic. In these cases, the item has the arcane, divine, occult, or primal trait instead of the magical trait. Any of these traits indicate that the item is magical.
