A paper drake can fold its body into different sizes and shapes. The drake can adjust its size by one step in either direction, but can’t be smaller than Tiny or larger than Medium size. Changes in size or shape don’t affect the paper drake’s stats.

Shelve.

A paper drake can fold itself into a small, almost flat form, perfect for hiding on bookshelves. The drake can still be recognized as something other than a book by someone who handles it (doesn’t just glance at it on the shelf) and makes a successful DC 11 Intelligence (Nature or Investigation) check. The drake can hop or fly (clumsily, by flapping its pages) 5 feet per turn in this form.

Actions

Multiattack. The drake makes one bite attack, one claw attack, and one tail attack.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (2d6 + 3) piercing damage.
Claws. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 13 (3d6 + 3) slashing damage.
Tail. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 20 (5d6 + 3) slashing damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be incapacitated for 1 round.
