Actions
  • Multiattack. The spider drake makes three attacks: one with its bite and two with its claws. It can use Web in place of its bite attack.

  • Poison Breath (Recharge 5-6). The drake exhales poisonous gas in a 30-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw. On a failure, a creature takes 42 (12d6) poison damage and is poisoned. On a success, a creature takes half the damage and isn't poisoned. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
