### Special Abilities
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- **Evil:** The dragon radiates an Evil aura.
|
||
|
|
- **Incorporeal Movement:** The dragon can move through other creatures and objects. It takes 11 (2d10) force damage if it ends its turn inside an object.
|
||
|
|
- **Essence Link:** The essence dragon is spiritually linked to a specific area or landmark. The dragon gains no benefit from a long rest when more than 1 mile away from its linked area. If the dragon dies, the area it is linked to loses its vital essence until it forms a new essence dragon, which can take centuries. When a creature first enters an area that has lost its vital essence in this way, they gain a level of fatigue and a level of strife. This fatigue and strife can be removed only by completing a long rest outside the area.
|
||
|
|
- **Innate Spellcasting:** The dragons spellcasting ability is Charisma (save DC 16). It can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components. 3/day each:darkness, detect evil and good
