Draconic Heritage
At 3rd level, the scaled fist has gained some control over the draconic energies she studies. She must select one type of dragon. Once this choice is made, it cannot be changed. The scaled fist can expend 1 point from her ki pool as a swift action to imbue her natural attacks with the energy specific to this dragon, causing them to deal an extra 1d6 points of damage of the chosen energy type for a number of rounds equal to 1/2 her monk level. At 12th level, a scaled fist can spend 3 points from her ki pool to make a breath weapon attack as a standard action. This breath weapon deals 1d6 points of damage of her energy type per monk level in a 30-foot cone or 60-foot line. Those caught in the area of the breath can attempt a Reflex save (DC = 10 + 1/2 the scaled fist's monk level + her Charisma modifier) to halve the normal damage.
