Actions

Multiattack

The dragon makes one Bite attack and two Claw attacks.

Bite

Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (2d6 + 8) piercing damage plus 7 (2d6) cold damage.

Claw

Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (2d6 + 8) slashing damage.

Tail

Melee Weapon Attack: +14 to hit, reach 20 ft., one target. Hit: 15 (2d6 + 8) bludgeoning damage.

Cold Breath (Recharge 5-6)

The dragon exhales a blast of frost in a 90-foot cone. Each creature in the cone must make a DC 21 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 36 (8d8) cold damage, and its speed is reduced to 0 until the end of its next turn. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage, and its speed isn't reduced.

Phase (3/Day) (Bonus Action)

The dragon becomes partially incorporeal for as long as it maintains concentration on the effect (as if concentrating on a spell). While partially incorporeal, the dragon has resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.

Legendary actions

Legendary Actions (3/Turn)

The Ancient Lunar Dragon can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action can be used at a time and only at the end of another creature's turn. The Ancient Lunar Dragon regains spent legendary actions at the start of its turn.

Tail Attack

The dragon makes one Tail attack.

Treacherous Ice

Magical ice covers the ground in a 20-foot radius centered on a point the dragon can see within 120 feet of itself. The ice, which is difficult terrain for all creatures except lunar dragons, lasts for 10 minutes or until the dragon uses this legendary action again.

Wing Attack (Costs 2 Actions)

The dragon beats its wings. Each creature within 15 feet of the dragon must succeed on a DC 21 Dexterity saving throw or take 12 (1d8 + 8) bludgeoning damage and be knocked prone. The dragon can then fly up to half its speed without provoking opportunity attacks.
