Nass'rak has long since learned the greatest weakness of the foolish adventurers who hunt him: GOLD! Beneath the loose scales along his back, he stores countless coins within an enormous air sac. Forever bloated with treasure, the organ that once fueled a dragon's fiery breath has withered away, leaving him unable (and unwilling) to breathe fire ever again.
Nass'rak cannot be Influenced, bargained with, or tempted. Within his endless wealth, he already possesses everything a creature could ever desire. The countless coins within his air sac constantly grind against one another, keeping them polished to a brilliant shine.

Burrow 6 (Range 8) 2d6+5 (Does not Miss), up to 6 targets, On Hit: Distracted & Prone
Bloodied! (175) HP, Nass'rak Crawls back to his burrowed tunnels and starts to shoot all of his Hoard, Making the battle field a sea of gold coins.
Now Battle field is Difficult Terrain, Gilded Breath deals (Minimum) 7d12 (Does not Miss) but he needs to eat some gold to fire it (Charge up for 1 turn)
LAST STAND! Nass'rak is dying! 60 more damage and he dies! Gain Heavy Armor and try to talk your way out of this. If your attempts fail, Vomit a huge crystal that blinds all enemies when shattered. (1 Round)
Among dragons wings are more than limbs, they are a birthright. A dragon without them is an impossibility, a mistake of nature. Yet Nass'rak endured. Unable to soar, he mastered the earth instead, carving vast tunnel networks beneath his domain and striking where no dragon ever could. Most dragons breathed fire. Nass'rak surrendered that gift long ago. The immense air sac that once fueled his flames now serves a different purpose, acting as a vault for countless stolen coins. He has discovered the greatest weakness of adventurers is not fear, nor death but greed. Every stolen coin only makes him deadlier, until his hoard itself becomes a weapon.
On death, if the armor is touched, it disintegrates both itself and the wearer. If a Creature caused this, they must make a DC15 DEX save or take 4d10 Necrotic damage.
