Ice Walk. The dragon can move across and climb icy surfaces without needing to make an ability check. Additionally, difficult terrain composed of ice or snow doesn't cost it extra movement.
Amphibious. The dragon can breathe air and water.
Multiattack. The dragon makes three attacks: one with its bite and two with its claws.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (2d10 + 4) piercing damage plus 4 (1d8) cold damage.
Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 11 (2d6 + 4) slashing damage.
Poison Breath (Recharge 5–6). The dragon exhales poisonous gas in a 30-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 14 Constitution saving throw, taking 42 (12d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Description
When two dragons of different types mate, the offspring will share the type of the mother. This is common knowledge, but learned sages know that it is not always the case. Very rarely, the offspring will take on some characteristics of the father as well. This phenomenon occurs more frequently when a white dragon is the mother, presumably because of the more primal nature of white dragons. When a green dragon sires offspring with a white dragon mate, there is a 1 in 6 chance that each resulting egg will contain a taiga dragon. These dragons have the coloring of a white dragon, although some green accents will develop with age. They have the markings and horn composition of a green dragon, however. While they are not as intelligent as green dragons, they do possess greater intelligence than a standard white dragon. With the perfect memory of their maternal lineage and the hunting skills inherited from both sources, taiga dragons can be fearsome opponents in battle. They live for the hunt, and rarely create lairs, preferring to live in the wilds and simply sleep where it suits them. If they do hoard treasure, it will be scattered about their territory in the open. The taiga dragon prefers to use its hoard as bait for intelligent creatures because they consider them better sport.
