Trigger The dragon rolls initiative Effect A cloud dragon controls their element as easily as they breathe. The dragon uses Dragonmist twice.

Draconic Frenzy◆◆offensive

The dragon makes two claw Strikes and one horn Strike in any order.

Draconic Momentumoffensive

The dragon recharges their Thundercloud Breath whenever they score a critical hit with a Strike.

Dragonmist◆offensive(concentrate, manipulate, water)

The dragon conjures up a sudden mist in a 20-foot burst within 120 feet. All creatures within the mist become Concealed, and all creatures outside the mist become concealed to creatures within it. The dragon can use this action again to dismiss the mist—anyone else attempting to remove the dragonmist (via Gust of Wind or similar) must succeed at a counteract check. An ancient dragon can have up to five clouds of dragonmist active at a time.

Mist Step◆offensive(teleportation)

Requirements The dragon is within a cloud of dragonmist

The dragon dissolves into wisps of cloud, reforming within another cloud of dragonmist within 1 mile.

Shapes in the Fog◆offensive(visual)

With a cloud dragon's mastery of their element, creating shapes and images in a fog is child's play. All creatures within or adjacent to one cloud of dragonmist must attempt a DC 41 will save or be Off-Guard for 1 round (on a critical failure, they are also Frightened 1).

Thundercloud Breath◆◆offensive(electricity, primal)

The dragon breathes a thundercloud that deals 20d6 electricity damage in a 60-foot cone (DC 41 reflex save). They can't use Thundercloud Breath again for 1d4 rounds. The cloud remains in the area for 1d4 rounds, with the effects of Dragonmist.
