# [Dragonflesh Abomination](Rules\Source\bestiary\monstrosity/dragonflesh-abomination-ftd.md) *Source: Fizban's Treasury of Dragons p. 187* A dragonflesh abomination is the final stage of a grafter's transformation—a hulking monster whose corrupted brain is ablaze with desire for treasure. Its abhorrent transformation erases the last vestiges of its previous life. It sprouts a tail and clumsy wings and grows to enormous size, barely retaining a bipedal shape. Its stomach churns with acid, causing noxious fumes to waft from its mouth and providing it with a caustic breath weapon. Its body is in a constant state of growth and change, allowing it to quickly heal from its wounds. These creatures are most often found in abandoned dragon lairs, temples to Tiamat, or other sites associated with the dragons they love. ## Dragonflesh Grafters Dragonflesh grafters practice forbidden rituals and risky experiments on themselves, modifying their bodies and minds to emulate the dragons they revere. They collect dragon parts—scales, teeth, skin, flesh, wings, and bones—that they scavenge from around dragon lairs, take from dragon corpses, or buy from merchants and adventurers. They stitch on, implant, or ingest these dragon parts, attempting to incorporate them into their own bodies and absorb the latent magic that lingers in a draconic corpse. While most would-be grafters wind up hideously scarred or dead, a few survive as wretched horrors. Their minds become twisted by magical malevolence, with only a shadow of their former selves remaining. In the most extreme cases, the resulting abomination holds no remnant of the person it once was and is utterly ruled by a dragon's lust for treasure. ```statblock "name": "Dragonflesh Abomination (FTD)" "size": "Huge" "type": "monstrosity" "alignment": "typically Neutral Evil" "ac": !!int "15" "ac_class": "natural armor" "hp": !!int "66" "hit_dice": "7d12 + 21" "modifier": !!int "2" "stats": - !!int "18" - !!int "14" - !!int "17" - !!int "5" - !!int "12" - !!int "6" "speed": "30 ft., fly 40 ft."
