Description
These dragons are rarely known by dragon researchers and scholars due to the simple fact that these dragons seclude themselves from societies and lair in place deep in the unexplored and wild places of the world. The farther away from any civilized place, from farming settlement to sprawling city scapes, the better.
Nature Dragons find better company in the wildlife of their home lair or in solitude. Much like the more well known Amber Dragons, Nature Dragons are known to be protectors of nature. They will defend their homes against any form of intrusion, well meaning or otherwise.
Their Physical description, from what researchers have been able to find out, is that the have a very similar appearance to Blue Dragons, being that they are both rather bulky in build and both have a large singular horn on it's snout. that's where the similarities end however. They have what appear to be scutes running down the full length of their body, similar to those found on crocodiles. Their colors are more of a reflection of their environment rather than keeping to one hue of color like the chromatic and metallic dragons. their colors range from a mix of greens and browns to a mix of blue and grays, depending on where they've decided to lair in. The strangest physical characteristic is that they either crate or produce a growing medium and cover themselves with it and allow plants to grow all over them. For what reason they do this, we can only guess.
Beloved by Nature: Nature dragons love being surrounded by Nature, and the enjoy the company of all wildlife that dwell in and around it's lair. These Dragon's have various plants that they will let grow on their bodies acting as both camouflage and due to the fact that these Dragons enjoy cultivating these plants. the plants that grow on these Dragons ranges from flowers, grasses, vines, and even small shrubs and trees crating home for the smaller creatures that dwell in the Nature Dragon's territory.
Hoarders for Nature: From what few accounts exist on Nature Dragons we know that they have a great distaste for anything manufactured in it's hoard, but those same accounts relay that Nature Dragons prefer thing of nature. They may take any uncut gem stones for it's personal hoard, but what they really desire has been seeds and seedling. The seedlings and seed from more common plants may be planted trough out it's lair and territory, and those seeds and seedlings of rare or singular nature may get stored away somewhere, or get planted directly into whatever growing medium that Nature Dragons possess on their bodies to be grown there.
Lair and Lair Actions
A Nature Dragon’s Lair
Nature dragons dwell in various natural areas far from any form of civilized development. These Dragon's prefer to live with other animals smaller than themselves, and let creatures sized small or smaller nest in the plants that naturally grow on and around these Dragons. From Caves hidden by hills, hard to reach mountain vistas, and deep withing the thickly growing trees of Forest and Jungles, Nature Dragon's will happily make lairs in any such area.
Lair Actions
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), the dragon takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects:
- The dragon chooses a point on the ground that it can see within 120 feet of it. Stone spikes sprout from the ground in a 20-foot radius centered on that point. The effect is otherwise identical to the spike growth spell and lasts until the dragon uses this lair action again or until the dragon dies.
- The dragon chooses a 10-foot-square area on the ground that it can see within 120 feet of it. The ground in that area turns into 3-foot-deep mud. Each creature on the ground in that area when the mud appears must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw or sink into the mud and become restrained. A creature can take an action to attempt a DC 15 Strength check, freeing itself or another creature within its reach and ending the restrained condition on a success. Moving 1 foot in the mud costs 2 feet of movement. On initiative count 20 on the next round, the mud hardens, and the Strength DC to work free increases to 20.
Regional Effects
The region containing a legendary copper dragon’s lair is warped by the dragon’s magic, which creates one or more of the following effects:
- Magic carvings of the dragon’s regal figure can be seen worked into stone terrain and objects within 6 miles of the dragon’s lair.
- Tiny beasts such as rodents and birds that are normally unable to speak gain the magical ability to speak and understand Draconic while within 1 mile of the dragon’s lair. These creatures speak well of the dragon, but can’t divulge its whereabouts.
- Intelligent creatures within 1 mile of the dragon’s lair are prone to fits of vacant reverence. Intelligent creatures can't seem to help themselves but to stop and admire their surroundings.
If the dragon dies, the magic carvings fade over the course of 1d10 days. The other effects end immediately.
