Dracofiends are powerful fiendish creatures that take on a draconic appearance. They use their vicious claws and horrifying fangs to tear apart their enemies, and like a dragon, a dracofiend can fire a blast of energy from its mouth. They rarely leave the Lower Planes, for most are imprisoned in extraplanar dungeons scattered throughout those planes. Fiendish Nature. A dracofiend doesn't require air, food, drink, or sleep.
