Master of Clouds

Trigger The dragon rolls initiative

Effect A cloud dragon controls their element as easily as they breathe. The dragon uses Dragonmist four times.

Dragonmist◆

The dragon conjures up a sudden mist in a 20-foot burst within 500 feet. All creatures within the mist become Concealed, and all creatures outside the mist become concealed to creatures within it. The dragon can use this action again to dismiss the mist—anyone else attempting to remove the dragonmist (via Gust of Wind or similar) must succeed at a counteract check. An archdragon can have up to six clouds of dragonmist active at a time.

Mist Step◆

Requirements The dragon is within a cloud of dragonmist

Effect The dragon dissolves into wisps of cloud, reforming within another cloud of dragonmist within 1 mile.

Shapes in the Fog◆

With a cloud dragon's mastery of their element, creating shapes and images in a fog is child's play. All creatures within or adjacent to one cloud of dragonmist must attempt a DC 45 will save or be Off-Guard for 1 round (on a critical failure, they are also Frightened 1).

Thundercloud Breath◆◆

The dragon breathes a thundercloud that deals 23d6 electricity damage in a 70-foot cone (DC 45 reflex save). They can't use Thundercloud Breath again for .

The cloud remains in the area for , with the effects of Dragonmist.

Toothsome Air

An archdragon's mist becomes akin to an extension of their body, to be shaped into fangs and claws. Their jaws and claw Strikes can originate from any square of dragonmist that's within 100 feet of the dragon.
