Ecology
Adult Red Dracolich is a creature that has crossed the threshold of death; its continued presence is itself a violation of natural law. It is most often found in hill regions. It is huge-sized, which shapes how it hunts, hides, or fights. As a legendary creature, it is rare in the world and likely the only specimen of its kind in the local region.
Behaviour
Adult Red Dracolich is haunted by what it was in life; its goals echo old grievances or the will of the necromancer who raised it. Its Chaotic Evil alignment shapes how it engages with the world — predictable in tendency, even when unpredictable in detail. It is intelligent enough to plan, scheme, or remember.
Origin
Adult Red Dracolich is codified in the 5e Monster Manual. Undead are the wounds the Negative Plane leaves on the mortal world — every undead has a death story behind it. Within a campaign, its existence anchors a region with the kind of weight only an old, named species carries.
