Darkvision

A monster with darkvision can see perfectly well in areas of darkness and dim light, though such vision is in black and white only. Some forms of magical darkness, such as a 4th-level Darkness spell, block normal darkvision. A monster with Greater Darkvision, however, can see through even these forms of magical darkness.

Scent (Imprecise) 60 feet

Scent involves sensing creatures or objects by smell, and is usually a vague sense. The range is listed in the ability, and it functions only if the creature or object being detected emits an aroma (for instance, incorporeal creatures usually do not exude an aroma).

If a creature emits a heavy aroma or is upwind, the GM can double or even triple the range of scent abilities used to detect that creature, and the GM can reduce the range if a creature is downwind.

Mist Vision

Fog and mist don't impair a cloud dragon's vision; they ignore the Concealed condition from fog and mist.

At-Will Spells

The monster can cast its at-will spells any number of times without using up spell slots.

+1 Status to All Saves vs. MagicDeflecting Cloud

Trigger The dragon is the target of a ranged attack

Requirements The dragon is aware of the attack and has a free wing

---

Effect The cloud dragon flexes a wing and creates a billowing cloud of mist. The dragon is treated as if they were Hidden for the purposes of resolving the triggering attack, so normally the attacker must succeed at a DC 11 flat to target them. The dragon also gains a +4 circumstance bonus to AC against the triggering attack.

Frightful Presence (aura, emotion, fear, mental)

90 feet Aura DC 32 will

---

A creature that first enters the area must attempt a Will save.

Regardless of the result of the saving throw, the creature is temporarily immune to this monster's Frightful Presence for 1 minute.

---

Critical Success The creature is unaffected by the presence.

Success The creature is Frightened 1.

Failure The creature is Frightened 2.

Critical Failure The creature is Frightened 4.

Breath Weapon (electricity, evocation, primal)

The dragon breathes a thundercloud that deals 15d6 electricity damage in a 50-foot cone (DC 35 basic reflex save). They can't use Breath Weapon again for 1d4 rounds.

Cloud Form (polymorph, primal, transmutation)

The cloud dragon's body becomes vaporous and misty. They gain the effects of Gaseous Form, except their fly Speed remains unchanged. The cloud dragon can use this action again to return to physical form.

Cloud Walk

The cloud dragon can tread on clouds or fog as though on solid ground.

At heart, cloud dragons are wanderers, explorers, and travelers who enjoy nothing more than seeing new lands and meeting unusual creatures. Cloud dragons range in color from light blue to a pale, milky white and have thick, curling horns and rather short snouts. They keep lairs among the extreme altitudes of the highest mountain peaks but are away on their many journeys as often as they're at home. Cloud dragons spend long hours surveying the lands they fly over from great heights, but they are creatures of whim, making it hard to predict what will pique their curiosity and bring them winging down to converse or investigate something on the ground. Cloud dragons seldom perform acts of outright malice, but they are not often charitable either. A cloud dragon is as likely to simply pluck something they desire off the ground and fly away with it as they are to bargain fairly.

A cloud dragon's ever-changing interests never seem to stray toward the complicated schemes and long-term plans of other dragons. These rovers are creatures of the moment, and although they are as mentally gifted as other true dragons, their interests remain in the here and now. Yet the cloud dragon's penchant for living in the moment is not a personality flaw-they're more than capable of anticipating long-term results of their actions and won't make foolish choices simply to pursue a current interest. At the same time, cloud dragons have little interest in worrying about the future and are as confident in their ability to handle tomorrow's problems as they are today's.

Cloud dragon hoards tend to be well-guarded or well-hidden, as a natural result of their roving habits often taking them away from their lairs for extended periods. Their treasuries include a wide variety of items-they are driven to gather a broad range of prizes rather than collecting one type of item intensively. To a cloud dragon, a diversified hoard is a perfect hoard.
