Dracolich Lair [35x84]
🕑 Added 2021-04-29 20:42:21 +0000 UTCA dragon will see the rise and fall of many civilisations before it has to face its mortality. The most ancient dragons are born into the stone halls of people so long forgotten that our ancestors spoke of them in myth and legend.
A Dracolich may live for many millennia longer than that.
These dragons are mysteries to the living. You won't see them flying over cities in petty acts showing off their chromatic scales and hoping to be written about in song. No, the Dracolich pities these dragon runts who thirst for the fear and praise of mortals. The Dracolich inhabits halls where pharaohs once claimed to be gods but whose bones are now sand. They collect arcane objects forged by angels and play with them like trinkets. If you spoke to one it would hardly hear you or recognize your existance. Indeed, the words and deeds of mortals rot before a Dracolich like leaves in fetid water. A flea holding a sword, a mote of dust in a wizard cowl.
But reality hates a great power to be kept secret. So as is the quirk of things every so often a map is found in the deep places of the world. A map so old it is written in faded petroglyphs, rubbed smooth by time. A stone carved with ancient nails and dyed with ochre. A faint ochre scrawl marking of the way to a vault of ancient treasure. A vault guarded by a giant dragon. A dragon of made of nothing but bones and greed. A greed that defied death. A death that should have happened long before anyone you've heard of was ever even born.

Hey everyone!
Here it is, loooong over due, our next dragon lair. The entrance to the halls of an ancient dracolich! We've made a ton of variations this time. 26 in total!
After this post there'll also be a new dragon poll, so stick around for that.
We've also got some extra collaboration content for you too!
We've worked with our friend Paulo from Aanry's Book of Creatures on this release.
Paulo has designed the art and stat blocks for an awesome Hermit Squid for you to fight in this lair, inhabiting the bones of old skeletons. Paulo has offered all our $5+ patrons a 2 page teaser of his Hermit Squid release but you can get more lore, art, stat blocks and extras on his Patreon here. Get the PDF with the rest of the downloads below!
You may remember the Vampire Crab collaboration we did with Paulo for our Beached Kraken map. If you like these creatures, please go and support his work. :)
Edit: As it was requested a bunch, we've added an Astral variation for all patrons. Its attached at the bottom of the post.

I think its because you've only been a patron for 30mins, the patreon system probably hasn't updated yet. I'd just give it some time. :)
$5 tier says “bad request.”
