SPECIAL ABILITIES
Magnetize (Su): Three times a day an amber dragon can magnatize all metal in a 120 ft radius. All opponents using metal weapons or wearing metal armor in that radius must make a DC 22 Fortitude save or be staggered and suffer a -2 penalty to their AC for 3d4 rounds.

Shape Change (Su): Amber dragons can assume the form of any humanoid or animal 4 times per day.


Amber dragons are one of the most reclusive types of dragons around. They live only in the deepest and oldest forests in the world. They are constantly in tune with the forest around them and their nature reflect that of their natural homes. They do not actively seek out humanoid companionship, but they do not reject it either. They are commonly found in the company of druids and elves when they have humanoid companions. In fact, unlike other dragons, amber dragons spellcasting abilities advance as a druid. Amber dragons teeth are small and flimsy and totally unfit for biting. Instead they have a triangular horn that they use to split open tree trunks to get the thick sap inside. They have a reservoir of sap that they can spit at opponents, trapping them in a thick sappy amber while the amber dragon seeks refuge.
