Lair and Lair Actions
An Oak Dragon’s Lair
Oak dragons dwell among the great forests, making their lairs in secluded alcoves of trees deep in the heart of forests more ancient then themselves. Though many are comfortable in natural costal caverns or abandoned cities, oak dragons covet the last unexplored reaches of ancient tree groves. An ancient forest citadel or a remote garden raised by a long-dead arch-Druid is the sort of lair that every oak dragon dreams of.
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 grasping wooden tendrils as if it had cast the maximilian's earthen grasp spell. The tendrels lasts until initiative count 20 on the next round.
- Plants and trees come to life in the lair near the dragon. Each creature within 120 feet of the dragon must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or take 5 (1d10) bludgeoning damage, as plants and trees batter them.
Regional Effects
The region containing a legendary oak 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, trees part for non-hostile creatures that become lost due to no act of the dragon’s or its allies. Such creatures have advantage on survival checks to find a path out of the dragon's forest.
- Given days or longer to work, the dragon can make trees and plants grow within its lair as solid as oak 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.
