Ancient Sky Dragon

An imperial serpent of living metal that rides lightning-charged winds, though a blast of fire can dull its electric fury.

rareDragonElectricity

Sky dragons are imperial, storm-wreathed serpents of living metal, riding the high winds on lightning-charged wings and answering challenges to their domain with crackling fury.

In play

Countered by Fire If the sky dragon takes fire damage, the elemental magic of metal within them is tempered. Until the end of their next turn, they take a –1 circumstance penalty to attack rolls and AC, and their jaws Strikes don't deal electricity damage. This limitation ends if the dragon uses Breath Weapon.

Fed by Earth (abjuration, divine) When a sky dragon is targeted by an earth spell or effect, they leave a cloud of pulverized dust and gravel that swirls in the eddies of the dragon's flight. For 1 minute, the dragon is concealed while flying.
