How to run Stormgrave Dracolich
Stormgrave Dracolich is a tier 4 bruiser for Daggerheart. Drop it into any fitting scene; the statblock above is free to add to your compendium in the app, and the one-shot below gives you somewhere to run it.
Where it begins
- 1
Every thunderstorm now cracks with the sound of rattling ribs.
- 2
A ruined tower is lit each night by blue fire in its empty skull.
- 3
Farmers find fields scorched in a spiral pattern after the storms pass.
The Storm-Bone Spire
A storm refuses to break over a coastal ruin. The party must reach the spire, destroy three bone-anchor nodes, and confront the dracolich before the next tidal surge.
Stormlocked Coast
The sea churns under a ceiling of black clouds. Lightning crawls across the waves, and the air tastes of iron. In the distance, a broken spire glows with a blue pulse that never fades.
Establish how bad things are. The party must reach the spire before the next tidal surge hits. Drop three clues that the storm is tied to bone anchors inside the tower.
