Lair and Lair Actions
Book dragons dwell in ancient libraries, vaults, and far away from civilization. A book dragon’s lair is an ancient ruin that holds priceless knowledge filled with magic, lore, and treasures. The lair is littered with the acid-pitted bones of previous victims and the fly-ridden carcasses of fresh kills, watched over by crumbling statues. Nothing lives in this lair but the dragon and sometimes younger book dragons that seek knowledge and pledge themselves as students.
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:
- Piles of books and scroll that the dragon can see within 120 feet of it surge outward in a grasping tide. Any creature on the ground within 20 feet of such a mound must succeed on a DC 15 Strength saving throw or be pulled up to 20 feet into the air and knocked prone
- Magical darkness spreads from a point the dragon chooses within 60 feet of it, filling a 15-foot-radius sphere until the dragon dismisses it as an action, uses this lair action again, or dies. The darkness spreads around corners. A creature with darkvision can’t see through this darkness, and nonmagical light can’t illuminate it. If any of the effect’s area overlaps with an area of light created by a spell of 2nd level or lower, the spell that created the light is dispelled.
Regional Effects
The region containing a legendary book dragon’s lair is warped by the dragon’s magic, which creates one or more of the following effects:
- The land within 6 miles of the lair takes twice as long as normal to traverse, since the piles of books and treasure stack unstably.
