Special Abilities

  • Amphibious: The dragon can breathe air and water.
  • Flowing Grace: The dragon doesnt provoke opportunity attacks when it flies or swims out of an enemys reach.
  • 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.
