Dragon's Resistance. The owldragon has resistance to a type of damage based on the colour of dragon that it is a hybrid of (choose or roll a d10): 1-2, acid (black or copper); 3-4, cold (silver or white); 5-6, fire (brass, gold, or red); 7-8, lightning (blue or bronze); 9-10, poison (green).

Keen Hearing. The owldragon has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on hearing.

Trampling Charge. If the owldragon moves at least 20 feet straight toward a creature and then hits it with a claw attack on the same turn, that target must succeed on a DC 13 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. If the target is prone, the owldragon can make a bite attack against it as a bonus action.

ACTIONS

Bite. Melee Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) piercing damage.

Claw. Melee Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d6 + 3) slashing damage.

Breath Weapon (Recharge 5-6). The owldragon exhales energy corresponding with the colour of dragon that it is a hybrid of in a 15-foot cone (green, gold, red, silver, or white) or a 30-foot line that is 5 feet wide (black, blue, brass, bronze, or copper). Each creature in that area must make a DC 11 Dexterity (black, blue, brass, bronze, copper, gold, or red) or Constitution (green, silver, or white) saving throw, taking 18 (4d8) damage of the type that it is immune to on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Bonus Actions.

Animate Books. Spell: The owl dragon animates a pile of books that are 120ft away from it or less into a Book Golem. The Owldragon can use this spell 3 times a day before it needs to recharge.

Absorb Knowledge. Spell: The owl dragon absorbs the knowledge of a book, giving it a glimpse into the future. It must absorb the knowledge of a book for at least 1 turn. After which, it can change the outcome of any roll three times, and it must take the new outcome. To gain this ability again, it must absorb the knowledge from the book again.


About the size of a large dog, the owldragon has a stocky, muscular frame with powerful, feathered wings. Their appearance is similar to the dragons of their ancestry, with their feathers being almost metallic. They come in the same types as true dragons.
Much like its larger cousin, the owlbear, the owldragon seems to be the creation of someone with a twisted imagination. Larger than pseudodragons but less clever, these ambush hunters often drop onto their prey from above slamming the prey to the ground and then either clawing or biting the throat to finish it off. Living much like crows as solitary, pairs or small communities, this is very much a bird-like trait. However, they tend to live in habitats associated with their draconic ancestries (for instance, brass owlbears live near desert regions). They feed on whatever prey is available to them, as they are not fussy eaters. They can be trained with some effort, but they need a relatively large amount of food.
