Lair and Lair Actions
Abyssal dragons dwell in the void on the frayed edges of the prime material plane. An Abyssal dragon’s lair is a void collected area of land where a low bearing black fog covers the ground. Small creatures are plinded while in the fog. To clear the fog, celestial light is the only thing that can be used without going out.
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:
- 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 black 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 has low bearing black fog covering the ground. No plant life can live here.
- Water sources within 2 miles of the lair is frozen over from the immense drop in the temperature.
If the dragon dies, effects of the lair will disapate within 1d10 days and plant life will return within 2d20 days.
