Unusual Nature
The ghost dragon doesn't require air, food, drink, or sleep.
Actions
Multiattack
The ghost dragon makes one Bite attack and two Claw attacks.
Bite
Melee Weapon Attack: +11 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 32 (6d8 + 5) cold damage, and the target's speed is halved until the start of the dragon's next turn.
Claw
Melee Weapon Attack: +11 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 14 (2d8 + 5) necrotic damage.
Terrifying Breath (Recharge 6)
The ghost dragon exhales shadowy mist in a 90-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 21 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 40 (9d8) cold damage and is frightened of the ghost dragon for 1 minute. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage and isn't frightened. While frightened of the ghost dragon, a creature is paralyzed. The frightened creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a creature's saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the creature is immune to this ghost dragon's Terrifying Breath for the next 24 hours.

description
A dragon's attachment to a hoard can be strong enough to bind the dragon's spirit to existence after death. Such a ghost dragon haunts the hoard, often forming an attachment to a single priceless object that becomes the focus of the ghost dragon's Undead existence. A ghost dragon is a translucent and incorporeal version of the original dragon. Though its breath weapon resembles ghostly flames, lightning, or acid, it carries an otherworldly curse. The breath's shadowy mist can induce waking nightmares.
