Breath Weapon The gold dragon breathes in one of two ways. The dragon can't use Breath Weapon again for 1d4 rounds.
Change Shape (arcane, concentrate, polymorph, transmutation) Dagra assumes a Medium humanoid form, posing as the human wizard Lamond Miaton.
Draconic Frenzy The gold dragon makes two claw Strikes and one horns Strike in any order.
Draconic Momentum When the gold dragon scores a critical hit with a Strike, it recharges Breath Weapon.
Explosive Breath When Dagra uses Breath Weapon, he can expel an explosive orb of flame instead of a cone. When he does, he fires the orb at the corner of a square within 60 feet. The orb immediately detonates and deals 24d6 fire damage (DC 48 basic Reflex save) to all creatures within a 30-foot burst. Creatures that critically fail their save catch on fire and take 4d6 persistent fire damage.
