If a creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to Urdiem's Frightful Presence for the next 24 hours.

Description
Urdiem is a truly ancient being, older than most ancient dragons currently alive. He works underhandedly, pulling strings and scheming for ends only he is aware of. He has his hand in the affairs of many planes, even though he hardly leaves his lair for anything himself. Through the power of death and rebirth, he was able to conquer his chaotic nature, and direct his ambitions with unrivaled clarity and avarice.
Lair and Lair Actions
An impossibly large cavern, deep beneath the earth. Everything about Urdiem's lair reflects his keen mind and wicked cunning, including the magic and mundane traps that secure it. Undead, constructs, and bound devils lurk in shadowy recesses, emerging to destroy those who dare to disturb the Eternal One's work.
If Urdiem is encountered in his lair, he has a challenge rating of 28 (120,000 XP).
Lair Actions
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), Urdiem takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; Urdiem can’t use the same effect two rounds in a row:
- Magma erupts from a point on the ground Urdiem can see within 120 feet of it, creating a 20-foot-high, 5-foot-radius geyser. Each creature in the geyser’s area must make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 21 (6d6) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
- Urdiem calls forth the spirits of creatures that died in his lair. These apparitions materialize and attack one creature that Urdiem can see within 60 feet of it. The target must succeed on a DC 20 Constitution saving throw, taking 52 (15d6) necrotic damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a success. The apparitions then disappear.
- A tremor shakes the lair in a 60-foot radius around Urdiem. Each creature other than Urdiem on the ground in that area must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or be knocked prone.
Regional Effects
The region containing Urdiem’s lair is warped by the deep necromantic and draconic magic, which creates one or more of the following effects:
- Small earthquakes are common within 6 miles of Urdiem's lair.
- Water sources within 1 mile of the lair are supernaturally warm and tainted by sulfur.
- Corpses of once-living creatures decompose at 1/5th the natural speed.
- Living creatures within 3 miles of Urdiem's lair make saves against exhaustion at a disadvantage.
If Urdiem dies, these effects fade over the course of 2d10 days.
