Lair and Lair Actions
A Gray Dragon’s Lair
Gray dragons make their nests high in the mountaintops in frigid caves and lofty peaks. Gray dragons especially love stony precipices, and frequently employ boulders to keep intruders out of their airy caverns.
A legendary gray dragon’s innate magic aggravates the already tempestuous winds around its lair. Gales and torrents around the whistling heights whip around these crevices, providing an extra layer of security.
A gray dragon rests on high rocky plateaus, sunning itself as best as it can using natural light, while the floor around it is a treacherous morass of rubble and stone, hidden pits, and yawning chasms. As foes struggle to move toward it, the dragon flies from perch to perch and destroys them with its life-sapping claws
Regional Effects
The region containing a legendary gray dragon’s lair is warped by the dragon’s magic, which creates one or more of the following effects:
- Great stony spires jut from the landscape within 6 miles of the dragon’s lair.
- The ground is loose and gravelly within 6 miles of the dragon's lair, and a creature attempting to explore this terrain takes twice as long.
- Large boulders block off areas in the dragon’s lair. Each boulder is roughly spherical, and a 10-foot section has AC 15, 30 hit points, vulnerability to Thunder, Force, and Bludgeoning damage, resistance to Piercing, Slashing, and Acid damage, and immunity to Fire, Cold, Necrotic, Poison, and Psychic damage. If the dragon wishes to move through a wall, it can do so without slowing down. The portion of the wall the dragon moves through is destroyed, however.
If the dragon dies, the loose ground solidifies within 1 day. The stone spires crumble over the course of 1d10 days.
