## Will-o'-Dragon When the process of becoming a dracolich fails, one of the many dangerous possibilities is that of the soul becoming untethered from the object intended as the dragon's phylactery. With no body or mind to return to, the soul drifts the world, slowly losing pieces of its memories until it can summon the willpower to once again take shape. These draconic will-o'-wisps might have some semblance of their identity, but many are but shades of their former glory. <br> <br> In their anguish, they lash out at any who approach, still thinking of themselves as mighty creatures to be feared, but they lack the weapons of their corporeal bodies. However, they are still made of the same raw aether that other ghosts and wraiths are composed of, and contact with one could still prove very deadly to mortals. If one of these lost souls are found, returning them to their bodies or memories might be very rewarding to any that would risk such a venture. ___ ___ > ## Will-o'-Dragon >*Gargantuan undead, chaotic evil* > ___ > - **Armor Class** 19 > - **Hit Points** 310 (20d20 + 100) > - **Speed** 0 ft., fly 80 ft.
