You've gained favor with the bronze dragon Ilburniiaza either directly, by aiding her in some way, or indirectly, by aiding or befriending her adopted children. While Niia herself remains aloof from most archipelagic happenings, she doesn't forget a kindness, and will aid you in turn.

## Rank 1: Well-Regarded Acquaintance

You've offered Niia or her children some minor to middling aid and have gained her favor as a result.

### Mechanics

***Storm-Touched.*** Ilburniiaza has infused a weapon of your choice with the power of her breath. Lightning arcs along it, shedding bright light in a 15-foot radius and dim light for an additional 15 feet. Once per day, you can call forth this power to convert all of the damage from one weapon or spell attack to lightning damage.

### Social

***Dragon-Friend.*** Good- and neutral-aligned dragons (and those related to them) look kindly on you, and may be more likely to offer assistance, though they may still request payment of some form.

## Rank 2: Friend

You've spent some time around Niia, and are slowly gaining some of her mannerisms, whether purposefully or inadvertently.

### Mechanics

***Commanding Presence.*** Ilburniiaza's understated self-assuredness is beginning to rub off on you. Once per day, you can cast *Command: Flee* (save DC 15). Additionally, once per day, you can reroll a save versus the charm or frightened conditions.

### Social

***Strategist's Aura.*** Evil-aligned dragons (and those related to them) regard you warily and may hesitate to act against you. Those of militaristic mind take notice of you.

## Rank 3: Close Friend

You've rendered some significant aid to Niia's family, and they'll go out of their way to aid you in return, though you're expected to continue doing the same for them.

### Mechanics

***Kel's Aid.*** Niia's adoptive son, the vampiric deep dragon Kel (proper name Azir'kel) offers you a few strange berries. At the start of an adventure, roll 3 times on the following table. Berries can be consumed as a bonus action, and any unused berries can be kept, retaining their magic until consumed.

### Social

***Bronze Aura.*** Your own aura is growing. You find it nearly impossible to break a promise. Good- and neutral-aligned dragons (and those related to them) regard you as an ally, and most people find you easier to trust. Adventurers take notice of you.

## Rank 4: Family

You've spent a good deal of your time with Niia, helping her as needed, and greater requests may yet be made of you. Niia offers you more significant, personal aid in return, though with this, you represent her in the world, and she expects you to represent her well.

### Mechanics

***Bronze Aegis.*** Once per day, you can use an action to focus your aura, drawing through it the power and experience of Ilburniiaza herself, temporarily tapping into an understanding of combat far beyond your own. For 1 minute, all friendly creatures within 15 feet of you gain a +2 bonus to their AC. For the duration, your eyes take on a draconic appearance, and your skin shifts to resemble bronze scales.

### Social

***Natural Leader.*** You're considered a natural leader. Those around you look to you to lead in times of crisis, and those of militaristic mind respect your opinion and may even seek it out.
