CR 8
SRD 5.2.1A black-scaled serpent with a spiteful, clever mind, coiled in the ruins it claims. It strikes three times a turn, with a venomous bite from 10 ft or a ray of rotting death out to 60 ft, and keeps a few spells for the fight's turning points: Hold Person, Lightning Bolt and Dimension Door.
