Brine Archdragon
An ancient tyrant of brine and tide whose caustic breath eats through hull and flesh, ruling its coast with the patience of the sea itself.
A tyrant of brine and tide, the brine archdragon is among the most ancient and terrible of sea dragons, its breath a caustic spray that eats through hull and flesh alike. It rules its stretch of coast as an unquestioned god, and it has the patience of the sea to wait out anyone foolish enough to defy it.
The brine archdragon has a +2 status bonus to all saves vs. primal magic.
