Duality. Fruit Dragons are considered both dragons and fey.
Fey ancestry. The dragon has advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can't put the dragon to sleep.
Keen Senses. The dragon has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight, hearing or smell.
Poisonous Palate. Despite their name, these dragons eat every type of toxic parasite that comes near its plant or any fermented fruit on it. This diet makes the dragon simultaneously smell like the fruit it represents and exhale intoxicating gases. Making it's breathing smell like a strong ale and having an effect similar to that of being drunk when inhaled in large doses.
Rejuvenation. If it dies, the cloudberry dragon returns to life the next time its cloudberry bush blossoms. Only by cutting down its bush can you prevent this trait from functioning.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +2 to hit, reach 5 ft., 1 target. Hit: 1 piercing damage.
Breath Weapon (Recharge 6). The fruit dragon uses one of the following breath weapons:
Intoxicating Breath. The fruit dragon exhales poisonous gases in a 15-foot cone. Each creature in that area must succeed on a DC 11 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature becomes magically poisoned for 1 hour.
Seed Spew. The cloudberry dragon exhales seeds in a 15-foot line that is 5 feet wide. Each creature in that line must make a DC 11 Dexterity saving throw, taking 5 (2d4) piercing damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Description
Cloudberry dragons are health and vital creatures, showing off at any given time by jumping and running around. When they sense that something is near their bush, they tend to chase the creature until the dragon dies from exhaustion.
Variant: Fruit Dragon Protector
While the fruit dragon is guarding its plant and is within a 1-mile radius of it, the fruit dragon is named a protector. Protectors have the following abilities.
Protector. Such a fruit dragon gains the ability of Innate spellcasting. Its innate spellcasting ability is Charisma. The fruit dragon can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components:
At will: prestidigitation
2/day each: barkskin, spike growth (centered on it's tree, bush, vineyard etc.)
Variant: Fruit Dragon Familiar
Some fruit dragons are willing to serve spellcasters as a familiar. Such fruit dragons have the following trait.
Familiar. The fruit dragon can serve another creature as a familiar, forming a magical bond with that willing companion. While the two are bonded, the companion can sense what the fruit dragon senses as long as they are within 1-mile of each other. While the fruit dragon is within 10 feet of its companion, the companion gains the fruit dragon's aroma, always smelling faintly of the type of fruit that the fruit dragon represents. At any time and for any reason, the fruit dragon can end its service as a familiar, ending the magical bond.
