Bonus Actions

Disgorge Zombie As a bonus action, Argynvost can disgorge a Strahd zombie  which appears  in an unoccupied space within 10 feet of it. The disengorged zombie acts on its own initiative count. When Argynvost dies,  1d4 zombie erupt at the start of its next turn. zombies inside the dragon are protected by things like turn undead.

Description

An undead aberration of mighty Argynvost. Created by Strahd using the honorable dragon's stolen skull, the power of the missing seed-gem from the Wizard of Wines, and his own necromantic abilities. As the only thing remaining of Argynvost was the skull, the rest of the dragon's body is formed from the torn and cobbled together flesh of other creatures. A vile caricature of the sinuous grace borne of dragonkind, this monster bares flesh rather than scales, as well as humanoid faces stretched in horrifying ways across the creature's body.
