Lair and Lair Actions
Yaga Shura's Lair
Yaga Shura's fortress is high in the Marching Mountains. It's a massive iron structure buried deep inside the mountain and only reachable via a massive elevator. This structure is blistering hot and full of magma troughs and traps. His throne room, an ornate room full of magma pools and intricately designed pillars, is the perfect place for him to be fighting in as he can easily use his strength to toss intruders into magma pools if his favored hammer, Runehammer, hasn't already crushed them into nothing.
Lair Actions
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), Yaga Shura can take a lair action to cause one of the following magical effects; Yaga Shura can’t use the same effect two rounds in a row:
- Yaga Shura summons 2 hell hound within 5ft of him.
- Yaga Shura commands one of his hell hounds to use it's flame breath, even if it's not charged.
- Yaga Shura sends his hell hounds into a frenzy. Until initiative count 20, they gain +2 to hit and +2 to damage and can make one additional melee attack per round.
