Aura of Hatred. Wisdom Saving Throw: DC 23, each creature starting their turn in a 60-foot emanation originating from the draconodium. Failure: The target must use its action to attack or inflict a harmful effect.
Frenzied. While bloodied, the draconodium gains the following benefits:
- The draconodium’s Aura of Hatred increases its emanation to 150 feet.
- The draconodium’s heads fall into a bickering frenzy. The draconodium gains an additional legendary action per round but creatures have advantage on saving throws against them.
- The draconodium ignores difficult terrain and its movement speed can’t be reduced by any means.
Magic Resistance. The draconodium has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.
Hyper Regeneration. The draconodium regains 30 hit points at the start of each of its turns. If the draconodium is subjugated to psychic damage, this trait doesn’t function at the start of its next turn, and the draconodium must use its Rampage before it does anything else on its next turn. The draconodium dies only if it starts its turn with 0 hit points and doesn’t regenerate. If the corpse of the draconodium is not completely destroyed, it comes back to life after 2d4 days.
Legendary Resistance (5/Day). If the draconodium fails a saving throw or is hit by an attack, it can choose to succeed instead or have the attack miss. When it does so, roll a d100. On a 50 or lower, it can’t use one specific legendary actions until it finishes a long rest (that specific legendary action is rerolled when randomly determined).
War of Many Minds. At the start of each of its turns, the draconodium randomly determines a preferred target among the creatures it is aware of within 150 feet. If it reduces that target to 0 hit points or kills it, the draconodium gains 20 temporary hit points.
