Ashworm Dragoon - General Prestige Class
This is a general Prestige class that may be applicable to the Forgotten Realms Campaign
Some of the sand-hardened folk who have lived in the desert for millennia have come to appreciate the qualities of the ashworm. The skill of training ashworms as mounts has become popular, but you have been able to form a bond with a single ashworm so strong that the ashworm serves almost as an extension of your will. You, and talented riders like you, are known as ashworm dragoons.
As an ashworm dragoon, you ride across the vast desert sands (and sometimes beneath or beyond). You choose your own path, whether that involves defending your people, taking service with a patron, or striking out in search of adventure.
Most ashworm dragoons are fighters, though some barbarians and rangers, and even a few rogues, might take a few levels in this class. The required Mounted Combat and Ride-By attack feats, as well as ranks in Ride and Handle Animal, are important to capitalize on the class's abilities and show devotion to the path.
