piles of coins they covet, minted by current and fallen

humanoid empires, as well as art objects and fine

jewelry crafted by numerous races. Other treasures
that make up their hoards can include intact ships, the
remains of kings and queens, thrones, the crown jewels
of ancient empires, inventions and contraptions, and
monoliths carried from the ruins of fallen cities.
A SILVER DRAGON's LAIR
Silver dragons dwell among the clouds, making
their lairs on secluded cold mountain peaks. Though
many are comfortable in natural cavern complexes or
ab'andoned mines, silver dragons covet the lost outposts
of humanoid civilization. An abandoned mountaintop
citadel or a remote tower raised by a long-dead wizard is
the sort of lair that every silver dragon dreams of.
LAIR ACTIONS
On initiative count 20 (iosing initiative ties), the dragon
takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects:
The dragon creates fog as if it had cast the fog
cloud spell. The fog lasts until initiative count 20 on
the next round.

throw or take 5 (1dl0) cold damage. Gases and vapors

a 50 percent chance of being extinguished.
REGIONAL EFFECTS
The region containing a legendary silver dragon's lair
is warped by the dragon's magic, which creates one or
more of the following effects.
• Once per day, the dragon can alter the weather in a
6-mile radius centered on its lair. The dragon doesn't
need to be outdoors; otherwise the effect is identical to
the control weather spell.
• Within 1 mile of the lair, winds buoy non-evil creatures
that fall due to no act of the dragon's or its allies. Such
creatures descend at a rate of 60 feet per round and
take no falling damage.
• Given days or longer to work, the dragon can make
clouds and fog within its lair as solid as stone, forming
structures and other objects as it wishes.
If the dragon dies, changed weather reverts to normal,
as described in the spell, and the other effects fade
in 1d10 days.
