Behaviour

Origin

Ankou Soul Seeker is introduced in Kobold Press's Creature Codex (2018). Dragons in D&D canon trace to Bahamut and Tiamat, with each lineage having its own founding myth. Within a campaign, its existence anchors a region with the kind of weight only an old, named species carries.
