Description
SPECIAL ABILITY Ghost Stride (Su) While an adult or older etheric dragon is traveling overland or in flight, it gains the incorporeal subtype, but its statistics do not change; it keeps its natural armor bonus and does not gain a deflection bonus to AC.
Grave Breath (Su) Once per day, an ancient or older etheric dragon can choose to deal no damage with its breath weapon. Instead, living creatures that fail their saving throws against the breath weapon must each succeed at a Fortitude saving throw or be reduced to –1 hit points. This is a death effect.
Psychic Magic (Sp) An etheric dragon gains the following psychic spells upon reaching the listed age category: Juvenile—mage hand (0 PE), mind thrust IOA (1 PE); old—chill metal (2 PE), telekinetic maneuver (3 PE).
Psychic Mastery A great wyrm etheric dragon can cast any of its psychic magic spells as a swift action, or if it casts a psychic magic spell as a standard action, it can do so for 1 fewer PE (minimum 0 PE).
Spectral Attacks (Su) An etheric dragon’s bite or claw attacks are considered to be ghost touch weapons.
Spirit Eater (Su) A creature devoured by a young or older etheric dragon cannot be raised from the dead with any magic less powerful than a mythic wish.
