Editing Faerie Dragon (section)

===5th Edition===
Having returned in the 5e Monster Manual at long last, the 5e depiction of the Faerie Dragon, like most other 5e monsters, goes back to its roots. Just, in a simplified format.

Now, the faerie dragon's age categories and attended color spectrum goes Red-Orange-Yellow-Green-Blue-Indigo-Violet, and each category above Red gives it a new 1/day spell-like ability, as follows:
* Red: Dancing Lights, Mage Hand, Minor Illusion (1/day for each)
* Orange: Color Spray
* Yellow: Mirror Image
* Green: Suggestion
* Blue: Major Image
* Indigo: Hallucinatory Terrain
* Violet: Polymorph

There are not, and there have never been, ultraviolet faerie dragons. To speculate otherwise is treason. [[Paranoia|Treason is punishable by death]].

Faerie Dragons in 5e are Red until their 6th year, when they turn Orange for the next 5 years. After reaching the Yellow stage, they change colors once every 10 years until they reach Violet at the age of 51.

Also, whilst it has returned to its euphoria breath, it now only targets one creature with it per attack.

Personality-wise, it remains all but identical to its AD&D depiction - and, in fairness, it's not like its personality ever changed much in any of the editions before now. They do respond well to bribery in the form of sweets, baked goods and baubles, though.
