Creatures within the line must succeed on a Fortitude save or take 1d4 Constitution damage. The effect persists for one round per age category. A Fortitude save can be made each round to resist damage, but the poison can only be neutralized through magic. Hex Dragon Breath (Su): Contact; save Fort DC 20; frequency 1/round for 5 rounds; effect 1d4 Wisdom and Charisma damage; cure —. ### Death Curse (Su) When a hex dragon is slain, it reflexively unleashes a death curse against all creatures within a radius equal to 10 feet per age category. All creatures within the area must save as above or suffer the most powerful of the hex dragon's retributive curse effects. ### Retributive Curse (Su) Hex dragons have learned to channel their pain and anger into terrible retributive magic; many foes who succeed in wounding a hex dragon find themselves wishing they could take back the blow. On any round in which a hex dragon is injured (taking hit point or ability damage), the dragon may curse one of the opponents who injured it as a free action. The effects of this curse increase as the dragon ages: Sickness: Target is sickened for 1d4 rounds. Agony: Target is crippled by agonizing pain (treat as nauseated) for 1d4 rounds. Blindness: Target is permanently blinded. Insanity: Target becomes permanently confused, as per the spell insanity. Oblivion: Target is obliterated (as if affected by a sphere of annihilation). A successful Will save negates the effect. A hex dragon may bestow curses from younger age categories, if it so chooses. The save DC against this curse is 10 + 1/2 the dragon's HD + the dragon's Charisma modifier. When a hex dragon is slain, it reflexively unleashes a death curse against all creatures within a radius equal to 10 feet per age category. All creatures within the area must save as above or suffer the effects of this retributive curse. ### Vile Resistance (Ex) Hex dragons receive a +4 bonus on saves versus death effects, enchantment spells, and effects that deal negative energy damage. They are immune to disease and poison.
