    Languages Terran

    Challenge 4 (1,100 XP)

    Traits

    Earthen Conglomerate (Recharges after a Short or Long Rest). When the Rascalite is reduced to 0 Hit Points, it doesn’t die or fall Unconscious. Instead, the damage creates cracks in its body, splitting it into smaller elementals. The Rascalite is made up of three elementals: Mica, Sterling, and Jasper. Each smaller elemental has 20 Hit Points and can move independently of each other, but still act on the Rascalite’s initiative. They are counted as allies when it comes to the Familial Ties ability. Certain attacks can be used by certain elementals, as Mica can use the mica shot attack, Stirling can use the Stirling Slam attack, and Jasper can use the Jasper Slash attack. Finishing a short or long rest reforms the elemental, any destroyed elementals regenerate, and the Rascalite functions as a single creature again. The Rascalite dies when Mica, Sterling, and Jasper are destroyed.

    Familial Ties. The Rascalite has advantage on an attack roll against a creature if at least one of the Rascalite’s allies is within 5 feet of the creature and the ally isn’t incapacitated. 

    Actions

    Multiattack. The Rascalite makes three attacks; one Sterling Slam, one Mica Shot, and one Jasper Slash. 

    Sterling Slam. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (2d6 + 3) Bludgeoning damage. 

    Mica Shot. Ranged Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, range 60/120 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d0 + 3) Piercing damage. 

    Jasper Slash. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (3d4 + 3) Slashing damage.

  • Plaster Dragon

    A construct brought to life by the magic of cunning and artistically inclined spellcasters, the plaster dragon is a powerful guardian and servant. Its high weight and plaster nature keep it grounded, but offer it no shortage of dangerous abilities. It’s plaster breath batters and slows opponents before it petrifies them with a glare. 

    Large Construct, Unaligned

    Armor Class: 17 (natural armor)

    Hit Points: 119 (14d10 + 42)

    Speed: 40 ft.

    STR   19 (+4)

    DEX   13 (+1)

    CON   17 (+3)

    INT    3 (-4)

    WIS   11 (+1)

    Senses: Darkvision 60 ft., Passive Perception 13

    Languages: –

    Challenge: 7 (4,900 XP)

    Traits

    Construct Nature. A plaster dragon doesn’t require air, food, drink, or sleep.

    False Appearance. While the dragon remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from a sculpture. 

    Actions

    Multiattack. The dragon can use its Statuesque Immobilisation. It then makes three attacks: one with its Bite and two with its Claws.

    Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, range 10 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (2d10 + 4) piercing damage.

    Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, range 5 feet., one target. Hit: 11 (2d6 + 4) slashing damage.

    Plaster Breath. The dragon exhales plaster and dust in a 30-foot cone. Each creature in the area must make a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw, taking 13 (3d8) Piercing damage and 13 (3d8) Bludgeoning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. A creature that fails its saving throw also has its speed halved as the plaster impairs its movement.

    Statuesque Immobilation. A creature of the dragon’s choice within 60 feet of it that has its speed reduced by its Plaster Breath must make a DC 14 Constitution saving throw or be Restrained as the plaster starts to harden. The Restrained target must repeat the saving throw at the end of its next turn. On a successful save, this effect and the effect of the dragon’s Plaster Breath end. On a failed save, the target is Petrified. If a creature’s saving throw is successful or the effect ends on it, it is immune to the dragon’s Statuesque Immobilisation for 24 hours.
