Lair and Lair Actions
The tunnels where The Slug Dragon burrows are filled with slime and bones. What remains of the bones has been eaten away by some sort of acid. The trail it leaves is puddles of water and thick fog. Be careful how much you breathe in or where you step. You may become blinded and feel parts of your body being eroded away.
The tunnels are a network where it leads to the heart of the Slug Dragon's lair. Among it's treasures is a pool where it sleeps. But do not be near the water. Otherwise, you may be dragged down where it's true home is.
Lair Actions
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), the dragon takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; the dragon can’t use the same effect two rounds in a row:
- Drops of acid drip from the ceiling from where the dragon can see, creating a 20ft high, 5ft wide splash. Creatures in the radius must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or take 21 (6d6) acid damage or half on a successful save.
- A thick fog surrounds the target in a 20 ft radius. The target must be 120ft from each other. The target creatures must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or be blinded for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
- The slime that covers the ground sinks the target creature into the ground in a 5ft radius. The target must be 120ft from each other. The target creature must succeed on a DC 15 Strength saving throw or be restrained. While restrained their movement drops to 0ft. The ground becomes difficult terrain. The smile becomes watery and translucent the dragon uses the lair action again or dies.
Regional Effects
- The region containing a legendary Slug Dragon is warped by the dragon’s magic, which creates one or more of the following effects:
- A fog covers the area of the lair in a 10-mile radius. The fog is easy to see. Though the aftertaste of it is something moldy and sticky.
- Lakes or sources of a river has a skin of slime covering the top of the water surfaces. Any amphibious animal living in the water are fine. But drinking the water is required a DC 14 CON saving throw or is poisoned for one day.
