The Fey Dragon of the Unseelie Court

Jabberwock are ghastly fey creatures that serve as one of the Unseelie Court's most capable servants. They share a similar appearance to dragons with a few key differences. Their bodies are usually very thin with their weight sitting mostly in their hind legs allowing them to stand semi-erect during combat. Their forelimbs are lanky and thin with very long exaggerated magic infused claws protruding from their fingers. Their heads look like a cross between a dragon and an angler fish. Their wings are broad and sit at the curve of their back. Jabberwock serve the Unseelie Court loyally, but often use their bandersnatch and jub-jub underlings for personal gain when their Unseelie master is away. Beware the jabberwock with its teeth that bite and its claws that scratch.

Fighting Style

Jabberwock are capable fighters as well as natural electrokinetics. They are not afraid to duel in close quarters combat using their massive claws as weapons. They are disciplined enough with their claws to use them effectively as standard weapons meaning they can parry blows, riposte, and slice with accuracy. Their claws are naturally enchanted making them exceptionally sharp and durable. Jabberwock will almost always further enhance their claws with electrokinetic magic further increasing their lethality. They surround themselves with an electric barrier that stifles energy damage and even strikes back at those who mange to land a blow on the beast. If outnumbered or overwhelmed, the jabberwock will take to the skies and rain down lightning bolts on their enemies starting with the most potent ranged combatants. If it can spare the magic, it will also use its magnetic bind spell while flying to lift its land bound enemies into the air and drop them up to 60ft.

Primary Attacks

• Frightful Presence: All creatures that are within 30ft of the creature must make a DC 11 willpower check or be forced to flee. This check can be remade every round until passed. Once passed, the creature cannot be affected by this monster's frightful presence again for 24 hours.
• Grappling Claws: The creature may now make a special claw attack that can be used to initiate a grapple with an opposed fortitude roll vs the target's fortitude. The claws deal half damage after DR has been calculated.

How to Fight a Jabberwock

Jabberwock are truly difficult opponents to deal with. Fighting one in open terrain is always a terrible idea unless you have a way to deal with their flight ability. Having a decent magician on hand that can use Counterspell would be a good way to counter the jabberwock's Magnetic Pull spell, but will not have enough range to stop their Lightning Bolt. Only good cover or magical shielding will be enough to stop a jabberwock from simply raining down lightning on you until you are nothing but ash. Overwhelming it with arrows is always going to the be the most efficient way to face these flying monstrosities. If you can afford it, raining silver arrows upon it would bring it down fairly quickly if not drive it away all together.
If you do manage to ground a jabberwock somehow, your battle is still not over. These beasts are capable fighters with their claws and use them to great effect. Striking a jabberwock who has erected its Electricity Dome will always result in injury, so striking it hard with less hits will always be better than striking it light with many hits. The beast is clever so it will likely focus its claw attacks on those who appear injured or lightly armored and pull them in using Magnetic Pull if they try to fall back. However, this spell only has a 60ft range so if you must fall back, make sure to run as fast as you can outside of the range of this spell or you will surly be pulled back.
