Traits

Pelor’s Solar Infusion. Aurixyros is considered both a dragon and a celestial. Magical darkness within 120 feet of him is suppressed as if by daylight.

Scales of Dawn and Storm. At the start of each of his turns, Aurixyros may choose:

  • Storm Aspect: His lightning damage ignores resistance

  • Dawn Aspect: Allies within 30 feet gain advantage on saving throws

Radiant Winglight. Opportunity attacks against Aurixyros are made with disadvantage. Allies within 20 feet of his wings gain advantage on Perception checks.

Beacon of Insight. Aurixyros automatically succeeds on Insight checks to detect lies or hostile intent.

Legendary Resistance (4/Day). If Aurixyros fails a saving throw, he can choose to succeed instead.

Unusual Nature. Aurixyros doesn’t require food or drink.

Actions

Multiattack. Aurixyros makes three attacks: one with his bite and two with his claws, or two claws and one tail attack.

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +18 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target.
Hit: 34 (4d12 + 9) piercing damage plus 18 (4d8) lightning or radiant damage (Aurixyros’s choice).

Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +18 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target.
Hit: 26 (4d8 + 9) slashing damage.

Tail. Melee Weapon Attack: +18 to hit, reach 25 ft., one target.
Hit: 30 (4d10 + 9) bludgeoning damage; DC 26 Strength save or prone.

Breath Weapons (Recharge 5–6)

Aurixyros can use either breath weapon.

⚡🌩️ Breath of the Sky’s Wrath (Lightning Line). Aurixyros exhales a 300-foot-long, 10-foot-wide line of crackling lightning. DC 26 Dexterity save. Failure: 110 (20d10) lightning damage. Success: Half damage. Metal objects and constructs have disadvantage on the save.

☀️🌤️ Breath of the Rising Sun (Radiant Wave). Aurixyros exhales a 120-foot cone of radiant solar wind. Hostile creatures: DC 26 Constitution save. Failure: 90 (20d8) radiant damage and blinded until the end of their next turn. Success: Half damage, not blinded. Allies in the area instead regain 60 hit points and end one fear or charm effect.

Bonus Actions

Change Shape. Aurixyros magically transforms into any creature that is Medium or Small, while retaining his game statistics (other than his size). This transformation ends if Aurixyros is reduced to 0 hit points or uses a bonus action to end it.

Legendary Actions

Aurixyros can take 3 legendary actions.

Solar Pulse. One creature within 120 feet takes 22 (4d10) radiant damage.

Stormbound Glide. Aurixyros moves up to half his flying speed without provoking opportunity attacks.

Judgment of Dawn (Costs 2 Actions).
One creature Aurixyros can see must succeed on a DC 26 Wisdom save or have disadvantage on all attack rolls until the end of its next turn.

Mythic Actions

Avatar of the Open Sky

When Aurixyros is reduced to 0 HP, sunlight breaks through storm clouds overhead.

He regains 350 HP, and the battlefield becomes Sky of Pelor:

  • Bright light in a 300-foot radius

  • Hostile creatures have disadvantage on attack rolls in the light

  • Allies regain 15 HP at the start of their turns

  • Aurixyros’s breath weapons recharge immediately

  • He gains one additional legendary action per round

Description

Lore

Pelor, God of the Sun, Healing, and the Open Sky, is not only the light at noon — he is the warmth that returns after storms. When a Blue Greatwyrm rose whose heart sought truth over domination and protection over conquest, Pelor answered.

Aurixyros was born beneath desert storms, but chose not to rule them. He guarded pilgrims, broke tyrants, and brought light to forgotten places. When he stood alone against a host of shadow creatures during an eclipse, Pelor infused him with divine radiance — not to erase his storm-born nature, but to elevate it.

Now his scales shift between deep sapphire blue and radiant gold, often causing mortals to mistake him for a gold dragon at a distance. His wings glow with soft blue solar light, and lightning answers his call like a hymn.

He is not the sun.
He is the dawn that follows thunder.


Appearance

  • Gargantuan Blue Greatwyrm, powerful and regal

  • Scales shimmer between blue and gold, shifting with angle and light

  • Wings retain classic blue-dragon shape but glow with radiant blue light

  • Eyes shine gold-white like sunrise through clouds

  • Lightning and sunlight often mingle around him

    Narrative Role

    • Beacon of hope during dark ages

    • Destroyer of tyrants and false gods

    • Ally to clerics of Pelor and sky-worshiping cultures

    • A dragon often mistaken for a gold dragon — to their surprise
