Burnished Justice
Every Burnished Justice Vigilante has the same origin. A Bronze Dragon saved their life at a young age and sacrificed themselves to protect them. From this sacrifice comes great power as a Burnished Justice Vigilante is born. They take after their protector’s sense of justice and zero tolerance for evil. They use their Burnished mark to call upon power and assume their transformation into one of the Burnished.
