The following features apply to all PC's bonded companion wyrms.

Wyrms are long, wingless, and covered in scales with tails twice as long as their bodies (think Chinese style dragon over European).

< < < Back to Main Page

Psychic Bond[edit]

Each Rider's wyrm is bonded to them, mind to mind. They may communicate over any distance. If the rider calls, the wyrm is there.

A rider always knows where their wyrm is.

< < < Back to Main Page

Draconic Ancestry[edit]

Every wyrm, depending on ancestry, has a breath weapon that is expelled in a 5' x 30' line: Fire, Cold, Acid, Poison, or Lightning. On a failed DEX save, creatures within that line take 5d10 damage, or half that on a successful save.

Breath Weapon is available after a short or long rest, and once used recharges on a D6a.png roll of D5b.png or D6a.png

Each Wyrm is immune to damage by the type of damage caused by its breath weapon, and its rider is resistant.

< < < Back to Main Page

Combat[edit]

On its turn, a wyrm may use its breath weapon (see above) or make a melee attack with its bite or its tail (wyrm claws are not suited to attacks).

Bite: +5 to hit; reach 5'; 2d10+2 damage.
Tail Slap: +7 to hit; range 15'; 3d10+3 damage
Natural AC 17 | Max HP 50 | 5d10 HD | Action Surge 1/rest
