Marquis Wendrake, Solar Dragon of the Gilded Court

Marquis Wendrake was once rumored to be the most impeccably dressed noble in the capital, a benefactor of orphanages, a patron of festivals, and a man who seemed to know every secret before it was spoken. In truth he is a solar dragon who has ruled the city from within its own hierarchy for generations. He values legitimacy as much as power, believing that empires are strongest when they kneel willingly. The formal court costume is not a disguise of necessity alone. It is part of his identity, a chosen shape for a tyrant who enjoys being adored before he is feared.

Imperial Masquerade. Marquis Wendrake has advantage on Charisma checks made to influence nobles, officials, and servants, and he can cast disguise self at will while in Dragonborn form. A creature that sees him transform must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be frightened until the end of its next turn.
Solar Metamorphosis. If Wendrake is reduced to 0 hit points while in Dragonborn form, he does not die. Instead, he sheds his disguise, regains 220 hit points, ends all conditions on himself, and transforms into his true dragon form at the start of his next turn. This counts as a new phase of the same encounter.
Eyes of Noon. Wendrake is immune to being blinded, and magical darkness does not obscure his blindsight.
Prismatic Court. A bright light source created or moved within 60 feet of Wendrake becomes a lens for him. The first time each round he is targeted by an attack while in bright light, he gains 10 temporary hit points.
Claw. Melee Weapon Attack: to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 20 () slashing damage plus 13 () radiant damage.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 18 () piercing damage plus 10 () radiant damage.
Tail. Melee Weapon Attack: to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit: 19 () bludgeoning damage, and the target must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.
Solar Beam. Marquis Wendrake exhales a blazing line of condensed sunlight that is 90 feet long and 10 feet wide. Each creature in the line must make a Dexterity saving throw, taking 81 () radiant damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a success. Nonmagical objects and flammable unattended objects in the line ignite. A creature that fails the save by 5 or more is blinded until the end of its next turn.
Crownflare Burst. Marquis Wendrake unleashes a pulse of crownfire in a 30-foot radius centered on a point he can see within 120 feet. Each creature in that area must make a Constitution saving throw, taking 45 () radiant damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a success. Creatures that fail are also outlined in searing light until the end of their next turn, granting advantage on attacks against them.
Blinding Rebuke. When a creature Wendrake can see hits him with an attack, he imposes disadvantage on that attack roll after seeing the result but before the damage is rolled. If the attack misses, the attacker takes 14 () radiant damage.
Tail Sweep. Wendrake makes one Tail attack.
Radiant Drift (Costs 2 Actions). Wendrake moves up to half his flying speed without provoking opportunity attacks. If he moves through bright light, he gains 10 temporary hit points.
Solar Cataclysm (Costs 3 Actions). Wendrake uses Solar Beam or Crownflare Burst.
