She hinted she was there on @[Holocene](location:bc60620c-6c40-4757-9490-d8a80f14ab01) for a thousand years before the arrival of the Alin, which if true would make her at least 8,000 years old.\r\n\r\nThe @[BMG](organization:d089f4de-f041-48bc-b9c7-c8913edfc66a) met her on the @[Alin Anaconda World](plot:0a87ede0-ebba-4465-bf35-856504814efa). She recognised the BMG as being from Holocene and was primarily concerned with keeping her current great great great grand brood of red dragon hatchlings (her possessions and property) safe.\r\n\r\nShe easily shifted all of her brood and herself into an alternate plane of existence to keep them apart from the rotten, spoiled and corrupt @[BMG](organization:d089f4de-f041-48bc-b9c7-c8913edfc66a). Ashavanti Gagan Akaval has not made it this far to be brought down by insects.","suggested_environments":"","armor_class":"30","hit_points":"707","strength":"32","dexterity":"12","constitution":"31","intelligence":"21","wisdom":"18","charisma":"27","base_movement_units":"","base_movement_in_ft":"40","fly_movement_in_ft":"100","burrow_movement_in_ft":"","swim_movement_in_ft":"","climb_movement_in_ft":"40","can_hover":"1","senses":"Blindsight 90\"\r\n[br]\r\nDarkvision 180\"\r\n[br]\r\nTelepathy with any creature within 360\" or any Red Dragon with 1080\"\r\n[br]","skills":"Add +4 to all skill rolls in which she has no proficiency\r\n[br]\r\nPerception +22, Stealth +10, Arcana +14, Intimidation +20, Insight +12\r\n[br]\r\nMagic Resistance\r\n[br]","saving_throws":"Dexterity +9, Constitution +18, Wisdom +11, Charisma +15, Intelligence +9, Strength +15","damage_vulnerabilities":"","damage_resistances":"Cold, Lightning","damage_immunities":"Fire","condition_immunities":"","spellcasting":"Sorcerer L25 with access to @[Elderday Magic](spell:f6ce8973-f2c4-4bc3-8cf2-1bbfc3cfcd7f)","cast_at_will":"[b]Detect Magic[\/b]\r\n[br]","cast_one_per_day":"[b]Overmastery[\/b]\r\n[br]","cast_twice_per_day":"[b]Negation[\/b]\r\n[br]","cast_thrice_per_day":"[b]Counterspell[\/b]\r\n[br]","special_abilities":"[b]Legendary Resistance[\/b]:\r\n[br]\r\nIf Ashavanti Gagan Akaval fails a savings throw, three times per long rest she can choose to succeed instead.\r\n\r\n[b]Elemental Adapt[\/b]\r\n[br]\r\nAny Fire damage by Ashavanti Gagan Akaval ignores resistance to fire damage of the chosen type.
