Description

Breath Weapon (Su): Either a line of acid 5 feet high, 5 feet wide, and 5x5x100 feet long or a cone of slow gas 50x50x50 feet long. It cannot use either breath weapon until 1d4 rounds later. Acid damage 14d4, Reflex half DC 27; gas damage Fortitude save (DC 27) or be slowed for 1d6+7 rounds.

Frightful Presence (Ex): The dragon can unsettle foes with its mere presence whenever it attacks, charges, or flies overhead. Creatures with fewer than 23 Hit Dice (except for other dragons) within 210 feet of the dragon must succeed at a Will save (DC 25) to avoid this fear effect, and remain immune to that dragon's frightful presence for one day. On a failure, creatures with 4 or fewer HD become panicked for 4d6 rounds and those with 5 or more HD become shaken for 4d6 rounds.

Spells: Knows and casts arcane spells as a sorcerer of level 9, gaining bonus spells for a high Charisma score. Can also cast cleric spells and those from the Chaos, Earth, and Trickery domains as arcane spells.

Spell-Like Abilities: 2/day-stone shape. These abilities are as the spells cast by a 9 level sorcerer (save DC 14 + spell level).

Immunities (Ex): All dragons are immune to sleep and paralysis effects. All copper dragons are also immune to acid.

Spider Climb (Ex): The dragon can climb on stone surfaces as though using the spider climb spell cast by a 9 level sorcerer.

Blindsight (Ex): Can ascertain creatures by nonvisual means (mostly hearing and scent, but also by noticing vibration and other environmental clues) with a range of 210 feet.

Keen Senses (Ex): Sees four times as well a human in low-light conditions and twice as well in normal light. It also has darkvision with a range of 700 feet.
