===Traits===<br />
'''''[[Amphibious]]'''''. The dragon can breathe air and water.<br />
<br />
'''''[[Legendary Resistance]]''''' (4/Day, or 5/Day in Lair). If the dragon fails a [[Saving Throw|saving throw]], it can choose to succeed instead.<br />
<br />
===Legendary Actions===<br />

<br />
'''''[[Banish]]'''''. [[Charisma]] Saving Throw: [[DC]] 24, one creature the dragon can see within 120 feet. Failure: 24 (7d6) [[Force damage]], and the target has the [[Incapacitated]] condition and is transported to a harmless demiplane until the start of the dragon's next turn, at which point it reappears in an unoccupied space of the dragon's choice within 120 feet of the dragon. Failure or Success: The dragon can't take this action again until the start of its next turn.<br />
<br />
'''''[[Guiding Light]]'''''. The dragon uses Spellcasting to cast Guiding Bolt (level 4 version).<br />
<br />
'''''[[Pounce]]'''''. The dragon moves up to half its [[Speed]], and it makes one Rend attack.<br />
<br />
===Actions===<br />
'''''[[Multiattack]]'''''. The dragon makes three Rend attacks. It can replace one attack with a use of (A) Spellcasting to cast Guiding Bolt (level 4 version) or (B) Weakening Breath.<br />
<br />
'''''[[Rend]]'''''. ''Melee Attack Roll'': +17 to hit, reach 15 ft. ''Hit'': 19 (2d8 + 10) [[Slashing damage]] plus 9 (2d8) [[Fire damage].<br />

<br />
'''''[[Spellcasting]]'''''. The dragon casts one of the following spells, requiring no Material components and using [[Charisma]] as the spellcasting ability (spell save [[DC]] 24, +16 to hit with spell attacks):<br />
<br />
:'''At Will''': ''[[Detect Magic]]'', ''[[Guiding Bolt]]'' (level 4 version), ''[[Shapechange]]'' (Beast or Humanoid form only, no Temporary Hit Points gained from the spell, and no Concentration or Temporary Hit Points required to maintain the spell)<br />

'''''[[Weakening Breath]]'''''. [[Strength]] Saving Throw: [[DC]] 24, each creature that isn't currently affected by this breath in a 90-foot Cone. Failure: The target has [[Disadvantage]] on [[Strength]]-based D20 Tests and subtracts 5 (1d10) from its damage rolls.
