Lair and Lair Actions
Wherever Zaleem resides, a massive lightning storm follows in his wake, bringing his lair with him as he slowly traverses the planes.
Lair Actions
On initiative count 10 (losing initiative ties), the Zaleem takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; the Zaleem can’t use the same effect two rounds in a row:
- Three Lightning bolts erupt from the skys with a +6 to hit dealing 3d6 lightning damage to anyone hit including Zaleem.
- Howling Winds as the storm rages, each character make a DC 10 strength save or be pushed 10 ft towards Zaleem. If a character is already within 10 ft of Zaleem they automatically succeed.
Regional Effects
The region containing a legendary Zaleem’s lair is a Massive moving storm, which creates one or more of the following effects:
- Dark tumultuous clouds are ever forming and reforming.
- cracks of lightning are constant and never ending
If the Zaleem dies, these effects fade over the course of 1d4 days.
**Zaleem the Lightning Lord should be a difficult encounter for your players having to constantly keep track of an ever changing environment and letting your more mobile characters shine**
