Black Dragon Pyromaniac (5e Creature)
From D&D Wiki
Black Dragon Pyromaniac[edit]
Medium humanoid (any race), chaotic evil Armor Class 12
Skills Intimidation +3 Volatile Explosive. When the pyromaniac is reduced to 0 hit points by damage other than psychic, its body explodes and it dies. Every creature within 10 feet of it must make a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw, taking 22 (4d10) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much on a success. Any object or structure within 5 feet of it takes double this damage. ACTIONSBoot. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d6 + 2) bludgeoning damage. Taunt. The pyromaniac taunts a creature within 60 feet of it which can see or hear it. The creature must succeed on a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw or become taunted by the pyromaniac until the end of its next turn. Flamethrower. The pyromaniac launches fire in a 40-foot long line that is 5 feet wide. Each creature in that line must make a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw, taking 22 (5d8) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. Smoke Breath (3/Day). The pyromaniac exhales toxic fumes in a 30-foot cone. The cone spreads around corners, and its area is heavily obscured. When a creature starts its turn inside the smoke or enters the smoke for the first time on its turn, it must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or take 5 (2d4) poison damage. It lasts for 1 minute or until a wind of moderate or greater speed (at least 10 miles per hour) disperses it. BONUS ACTIONSStream of Flames (3/Day). The pyromaniac adds 2d8 to its next damage roll with its flamethrower. Hara-Kiri. The pyromaniac explodes violently like a bomb, reducing its hit points to 0 and triggering its Volatile Explosive feature.

As a clan of ruthless mercenaries, the Black Dragon became even more dangerous when they learned of the existence of Outworld and the other realms. This unfortunate event caused the Black Dragon to greatly expand their influence, becoming a threat not only to Earthrealm, but to the other realms as well. Pyromaniac. Among the Black Dragon's many mercenaries, perhaps none is more volatile than the Black Dragon Pyromaniac. Equipped with a flamethrower and a supply of toxic fumes, this enemy shrouds itself in poisonous smoke before igniting the battlefield with their signature weapon. |
