Forced Fortitude: The NecroDragon regains 15 hit points at the start of its turn if it has at least 1 hit point, up to a maximum of 85 hit points. If the NecroDragon takes radiant damage or damage from holy water, this trait doesn't function at the start of the NecroDragon's next turn.
Desperation: When this creature reaches 85 or less hit points, it immediately regains the use of its Rotting Breath.
Multiattack. The dragon makes three attacks: one with its bite and two with its claws.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 17 (2d10 + 6) piercing damage.
Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +10 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 13 (2d6 + 6) slashing damage.
Breath Weapons (Recharge 5–6). The dragon uses one of the following breath weapons.
Rotting Breath. The dragon exhales a putrid miasma in a 30-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 17 Constitution saving throw, taking 45 (10d8) necrotic damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Paralyzing Breath. The dragon exhales paralyzing gas in a 30-foot cone. Each creature in that area must succeed on a DC 17 Constitution saving throw or be paralyzed for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
Description

Lair and Lair Actions
A NecroDragon’s Lair
Lair Actions
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), the dragon takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects:
- The dragon creates a stench as if it had cast the stinking cloud spell. The gas lasts until initiative count 20 on the next round.
- A horrific chill is felt by all creatures the Necrodragon can see. They must make a DC 15 Wisdom save against being frightened until the end of their next turn.
Regional Effects
The region containing a legendary silver dragon’s lair is warped by the dragon’s magic, which creates one or more of the following effects.
- Once per day, the dragon can alter the weather in a 6-mile radius centered on its lair. The dragon doesn’t need to be outdoors; otherwise the effect is identical to the control weather spell.
- Within 1 mile of the lair, creatures other than undead are overwhelmed by an intense feeling of dread.
- Given days or longer to work, the dragon can make clouds and fog within its lair as solid as stone, forming structures and other objects as it wishes.
If the dragon dies, changed weather reverts to normal, as described in the spell, and the other effects fade in 1d10 days.
