View source for Blood Dragon (3.5e Monster)

===Combat===

Blood dragons surround themselves with various oozes in their lair, having no fear of them.  Using their disease ability, they gain corpseblood templated minions which they use to soften up their targets, then fly in and strike them down when they are weak.

;Blood Drain {{Ex}}

A creature grappled by the blood dragon takes damage equal to its bite attack, and it is drained of precious blood. Thet target must make a Fortitude save equal to its breath weapon or lose 1d6 points of Constitution damage. For every point of Con damage it deals, the hemoplasm slime gains 5 hp (if this puts it over its maximum hp, it gains them as stacking temporary hit points that vanish after an hour, up to double its normal hit points).

;Breath Weapon {{Su}}

A cone of biohazardous slime.  It deals damage against any organic substance (including outsiders and undead) but not inorganic materials (such as most elementals or constructs), and subjects the target to its disease.  It is a [[Fortitude]] save instead of a [[Reflex]] save to halve the damage and negate the disease.

;Disease {{Ex}}

A blood dragon's bite attack carries the [[Corpseblood Mold (3.5e Other)|corpseblood mold]] disease.  If the creature gains the corpseblood gel template, they are under compulsion to follow the command of the blood dragon which created them.  The DC is equal to its breath weapon DC.

;Immunities {{Ex}}

Blood dragons are immune to disease, poison, sleep, paralysis, polymorph, and stunning.

;Ooze Form {{Ex}}

As a standard action, a juvenile or older blood dragon can transform into an ooze form of itself.  In the ooze form, it is blind, but it gains blindsight 120 ft, and can squeeze through small cracks as small as 1 inch wide.  It gains a number of slam attacks equal to the number of natural attacks it has, with the same damage as its claw attacks.  In ooze form, it does not need to breathe.  It can exist in this form indefinitely, reverting as a standard action.

The juvenile or older blood dragon counts as both a dragon type and an ooze type.  As a result, other oozes see it as one of their own and do not attack.

;Regeneration {{Ex}}

A blood dragon has regeneration equal to its age category.  It is bypassed by negative energy and silver.

;Spell-Like Abilities {{Sp}}

3/day-''[[SRD:Poison|poison]]'' (adult or older); 1/day-''[[SRD:Heal|heal]]'' (ancient or older), ''[[SRD:Mind Blank|mind blank]]'' (great wyrm), ''ooze puppet''<sup>SpC</sup> (old or older).

;Water Breathing {{Ex}}

A blood dragon can breathe underwater indefinitely and can freely use its breath weapon, spells, and other abilities while submerged. 

;Skills

Heal and Survival are class skills for blood dragons.
