Description

Argentum is a majestic and ancient shadow dragon that once lived as a silver metallic dragon. Over the centuries, it delved into forbidden magic, which transformed it into a creature of darkness and shadows. Now, it roams the skies with darkened silver scales that gleam ominously in the moonlight.

Lair and Lair Actions

 

Lair Actions: 

On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), the dragon takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects:

Dark Mists. Magical darkness fills a 60-foot radius centered on the dragon. The darkness lasts until initiative count 20 on the next round.

Shadowy Images. Illusory duplicates of the dragon appear in a 60-foot radius centered on the dragon. Each duplicate acts as if it were an illusion created by the Mirror Image spell.

Shadow Magic. The dragon casts one spell from its list of prepared spells, using a spell slot as normal.
