The air around you rustles into a heavy breeze, followed by a playful, but malicious whistle. Wheeling around reveals nothing, and it's only when you see the giant, vibrantly colored dragon 'falling' from the sky do you react.
In a messy blur you are flung back as the giant scaley beast rights itself with ease. The whistling and laspe of gravity don't cease as it barrels toward your already sliced body.

Also, Purple Dragons gain Expertise to Stealth, at the cost of 1 HP. This is due to being so good at hiding. Think about it, in most settings have you ever seen one?

Affinity Anatomy :
~0.0
Within all dragons is a core of magic attuned to an element. This Affinity Core affects their natural weapons and other features they may have, and will be automatically added to their features and actions.
Purple Dragons are attuned to the element of Wind, having affintiy for the haze and fog, as well as the natural violence of wind.
Vortex Tunnel :
~4.0
The Purple dragon uses the natural currents of wind to it's advantage, using it to slow enemies or keep them at bay.
After the Purple Dragon uses it's Energy Breath weapon, gale winds swirl around them in a radius of 30 ft, for 1d4 rounds. At the start and end of the Purple Dragon's turn, all creatures not resistant to wind damage or being knocked prone make a Fortitude saving throw vs DC 15 (or 10 + Proficiency + CON).
On failure, those creatures treat the area as difficult terrain for all Movement types except Burrowing, and start Falling if they are Flying or Climbing. On Critical Failure, those creatures are blown away, or toward, the dragon by 10 ft. (Dragon's choice, all recieve the same effect).
Windbreaker :
~1.0
If this creature causes or inflicts fall damage (such as from an effect that causes forced movement or causes falling) on another, that creature takes double the damage before resistances and other defenses.
Attacks | ◈ per, up to 3 a turn
The Purple Dragon spends actions to attack enemies with their natural weapons. They fight intelligently but chaotically, using the environment to inflict as much wind or fall damage as they can.
Dragon Bite | ◈ | Melee Weapon Attack, 10 ft |
+10 to hit | Hit: 15 (

Energy Breath Weapon, r2 :
~6.0|2⥣|1d6⟳| | ◈-◈◈◈ | Targets Reflex
The dragon exhales a jet of energy based on their Affinity Core that makes every creature in a targeted attempt a Reflex saving throw. The DC is equal to 15 (or 10 + Proficiency + CON). Each creature that fails takes 44 8d8 Wind damage (or, damage equal to 1d8 x TL). On a successful save and critically successful save, they take half or no damage, respectively.
The targeted area starts as either a 30 ft long, 5 ft wide line or a 15 ft wide cone (the dragon chooses on use). The dragon may spend more ◈s to augment the breath weapon, adding another 30 / 15 ft (respectively) to the length of the breath per ◈, or widening the breathe's line/angle by another 10 ft per ◈.
Escalation⥣ and Recharge⟳
Escalation⥣: This action only starts being used after Escalation 2, or Round 2. This creature's Escalation count goes up each time the creature becomes Blockstunned.
Recharge⟳: Once used, this action takes 1d6 rounds before it can be used again. This count goes down once per round each time the dragon critically strikes a target with with a Natural Weapon.
Galeforce Blast | ◈◈ | Targets Reflex
~2.0
The Purple Dragon uses it's Affinity Core to hurl to a blast of wind at an area.
The Purple Dragon hurls a concentrated orb of wind from it's maw, shooting it in a 60 ft line and targeting either a creature, object, or 5 ft square of ground. On impact, everything around the target in a 5 ft radius must pass a DC of 15 (or 10 + Proficiency + Con) or they are sent 30 ft flying away from it. If the target is a creature or object, they are sent flying in a random direction.
Tail Lash | ◇
~2.0
If a creature starts or ends it's turn behind the dragon, they may use their tail instinctively once per round. The dragon's tail swipes behind it (or in a reasonably designated area). On hit, it deals half damage, and the creature struck must pass a Reflext Save vs DC 20 (or 10 + Proficiency + Strength). On failure, the creature is sent flying 20 ft away from the dragon (or proficiency x 5 ft), and they start falling if they weren't already.
This is considered a Reactive Strike.
Purple Dragons are the smallest, but fastest of the Chromatic dragon genus. As such, they are spritely and dangerous in how fast they can move, and how they can harm others who rely on or rely on the winds. As such, their prey tends to be other creatures that can fly first and foremost, before moving on to slower things.
Purple Dragons, oddly, will often try to surprise enemies, but seldom fight to the death or run from fights unless provoked or angered. Infact, they see fights more of a challenge and way to prove themselves, and will often initiate such un/friendly competition umprompted.
Purple Dragons will often lair in places with wide open spaces to roam and race. Any cave in a hill, or forest on flatlands will be a favorite.
