Ice Walk. The dracolich can move across and climb icy surfaces without needing to make an ability check. Additionally, difficult terrain composed of ice or snow doesn't cost it extra movement.
Legendary Resistance (3/Day). If the dracolich fails a saving throw, it can choose to succeed instead.
Magic Resistance. The dracolich has advantage on saving throws against spells or other magical effects.
Phylactery. When the dracolich drops to 0 hit points, rather than dying, the body of the dracolich begins to de-materialize. After this happens, the dracolich reforms within 20 feet of its phylactery after 1d10 days. The phylactery has an AC 20, 100 hit points, and has resistance to all damage types. The dracolich reforms instantaneously if the phylactery drops below 50 hit points for any reason.
The phylactery is often hidden in a cave that once served as the lair of the dragon prior to lichdom. For all intents and purposes, this lair has the same lair actions as the adult white dragon, and the dracolich can interact with the lair in all the same ways as an adult white dragon would.
Multiattack. The dracolich can use its Frightful Presence. It then makes three attacks: one with its bite and two with its claws.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +12 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 17 (2d10 + 7) piercing damage plus 4 (1d8) cold damage.
Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +12 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 14 (2d6 + 7) slashing damage.
Tail. Melee Weapon Attack: +12 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit: 16 (2d8 + 7) bludgeoning damage.
Frightful Presence. Each creature of the dracolich's choice that is within 120 feet of the dracolich and aware of it must succeed on a DC 14 Wisdom saving throw or become frightened 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. If a creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to the dracolich's Frightful Presence for the next 24 hours.
Cold Breath (Recharge 5–6). The dracolich exhales an icy blast in a 60-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 19 Constitution saving throw, taking 54 (12d8) cold damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
The dracolich can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action option can be used at a time and only at the end of another creature's turn. The dracolich regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn.
Detect. The dracolich makes a Wisdom (Perception) check.
Tail Attack. The dracolich makes a tail attack.
Wing Attack (Costs 2 Actions). The dracolich beats its wings. Each creature within 10 feet of the dracolich must succeed on a DC 19 Dexterity saving throw or take 14 (2d6 + 7) bludgeoning damage and be knocked prone. The dracolich can then fly up to half its flying speed.
