Useful info
Death drakes are small, extremely unpleasant members of dragonkind. Although no very physically threatening, their miasma breath attack creates clouds of poisonous rot- and slow-inducing corruption that can near-permanently weaken your character. They can be found in lower portions of the Dungeon, the special 'undead Swamp:5', and in the Abyss, though they are most commonly encountered when summoned by draconian callers.
Spells: Miasma (3d9)
Tips & Tricks
- Read the article on miasma.
- Kill them as quickly as possible or run away fast! Note that despite their name and breath weapon, they are not in fact undead, or even considered unholy or evil. This means holy wrath weapons are not especially effective against them, but it also means they have no resistances other than poison and rotting.
