Glow. Harmless static electricity crackles around the dragon, flashing dim light in a 60-foot radius.

Invulnerable Hide. When the dragon is subjected to an effect that allows it to make a Dexterity save to take reduced damage, it instead takes no damage if it succeeds on the save, and half damage if it fails.

Soft Underbelly. The dragon carefully guards its soft underbelly while it is on its feet. When the dragon is attacked from beneath (e.g. while it is airborne, waterborne, or prone) its AC falls to 10, and it does not benefit from Invulnerable Hide.

Claws. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft.. Hit: 8 (1d6 + 4) slashing damage and the target is grappled (escape DC 14). Until this grapple ends, and the dragon can't use its claws on another target

Magnetic Field. The dragon projects a 10 ft radius magnetic field, which either attacts metal objects to its centre or repels metal objects to its edge. The field persists until the dragon chooses to dismiss it (no action required) or begins to project another.

  • A creature carrying metal must spend 3 feet of movement to move 1 foot against the field.
  • A creature carrying metal does not spend any movement when they move with the field.
  • Attacks relying on metal weapons or ammunition have disadvantage if they travel against the field

Skeleton

Medium undead, unaligned

  • Armor Class 12
  • Hit Points 4 (1d8)
  • Speed 30ft.
STR DEX CON INT WIS CHA
14 (+2) 14 (+2) 10 ( 0) 1 (-2) 3 (-4) 1 (-5)
  • Damage Immunities Cold, poison
  • Condition Immunities blinded, deafened, exhausted, petrified, poisoned
  • Senses blindsight 60 ft. (blind beyond this radius) passive Perception 6

Blank Slate. The skeleton shares its creator's skill, tool, language, weapon, and armor proficiencies, and uses its creator's proficiency bonus.

Break Apart. When the skeleton is hit by an attack, it takes just 1 point of damage and rolls 1d4. Based on the result, one of four parts is detached from its body and dropped within 5 feet of it: (1) head, (2) right arm, (3) left arm, or (4) legs.

The detached part is a creature with its own statistics and that acts on the skeleton's turn, while the skeleton retains its normal statistics and takes one of the following penalties:

  • Missing Head. The skeleton sees and hears from the perspective of its detached head. If the head is placed in a bag, for example, the skeleton is effectively blinded.
  • Missing Arm. The skeleton has one less arm with which to wield weapons, carry a shield, grapple, or use objects. If it loses both arms, it can do none of these things and cannot climb.
  • Missing Legs. The skeleton falls prone and cannot stand up.

When the skeleton takes bludgeoning damage, the parts are instead flung 15 feet.

Come Together. The skeleton can spend movement to magically pull its scattered parts together. It can do so even if it is reduced to 0 hit points.

If a scattered part is unable to move (e.g. a skeletal arm gripping a ladder, or a skull burried in the ground), the skeleton can instead magically pull itself towards that part.

In any case, when the skeleton and part are reunited in the same space, they are reattached to one another, restoring 1 hit point to the skeleton.

Nigh-Invulnerability. When the armor is subjected to an effect that allows it to make a Dexterity saving throw to take reduced damage, it instead takes no damage if it succeeds, and half damage if it fails.

False Appearance. While the armor is motionless, it is indistinguishable from a normal suit of armor.

Actions

Don. One humanoid within the armor's reach who is not wearing medium or heavy armor and whose speed is reduced to 0 (e.g. that is grappled or unconscious) must succeed on a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw or don the armor.

Until the armor is removed, it can neither move nor take reactions, and he only actions it can take are to Search or remove itself.

At the start of each of its turns until the armor is removed, the humanoid must make on a DC 19 Strength saving throw. The result depends on the precise result of this save:

  • 13 or lower. The armor controls the humanoid's movement, actions and reactions until the start of its next turn. The armor uses its own statistics while in control, and can't access the humanoid's knowledge, class features, or proficiencies.
  • 14 to 18 The humanoid stays in control until the start of its next turn, but its speed is halved, and it has disadvantage on attack rolls, as well as Strength and Dexterity checks.
  • 19 or higher. The humanoid stays in control until the start of its next turn, and suffers no penalties.
