Description
The Coral Dragon emerges from its watery lair, water left in the pocket of its coral. The Dragon shakes the water off and approaches its new company, the adventurers hear a voice in their heads. "Hello new friends, how may I be of assistance?" As the dragon speaks its sapphire gem on its forehead glows with a healthy energy.
Lair and Lair Actions
A Coral Dragon’s Lair
Coral dragons lair in high mountains or hills, dwelling in caverns under snow-capped peaks, . Caves with ancient Sea with geothermal activity are the most highly prized coral dragon lairs, creating a warm conferring atmosphere with water cradling the dragon as it sleeps.
With its hoard well protected deep within the lair, a coral dragon spends as much of its time inside its Lair and when they do leave they leave for years and only return when they have found a worth treasure to add to its horde. For a coral dragon, the great depths of the world is the reminder from which they can not forget—and a sadness that they wish to cleanse from their home coral reefs.
Throughout the lair submerged, coral erect monuments to the dragon’s memory, telling the story of its life, the foes it has slain, and the nations that have fallen, in the halls of a coral dragons lair tells the history of a world long forgotten.
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:
- The coral within 15ft of the adventurers strike out to defend the coral dragon Each creature attacked by the coral must make a DC15 dexterity save or take 6d6 slashing damage on a failed save or no damage on a successful save.
- Water in the lair starts begins to get rough and all terrain become rough terrain, the waves that are kicked up bash into the dragons foes, make a DC15 dexterity save or be knocked prone .
-
a wall of water on the ground at a point in the lair can spawn a wall up to 30 feet long, 10 feet high, and 1 foot thick, or a ringed wall up to 20 feet in diameter, 20 feet high, and 1 foot thick. The wall vanishes when the round ends. The wall’s space is difficult terrain. Any ranged weapon attack that enters the wall’s space has disadvantage on the attack roll, and fire damage is halved if the fire effect passes through the wall to reach its target. Spells that deal cold damage that pass through the wall cause the area of the wall they pass through to freeze solid (at least a 5-foot square section is frozen). Each 5-foot-square frozen section has AC 5 and 15 hit points. Reducing a frozen section to 0 hit points destroys it. When a section is destroyed, the wall’s water doesn’t fill it.
Regional Effects
The region containing a legendary red dragon’s lair is warped by the dragon’s magic, which creates one or more of the following effects:
- Occasionally rains within 6 miles of the dragon’s lair.
- Water sources within 1 mile of the lair become fresh and clean and safe enough to drink from.
- Coral Grows out of place within 3 mile of the lair.
If the dragon dies, these effects fade over the course of 1d10 days.
