Special Abilities[]
Agile (Ex) Nether dragons have good aerial maneuverability regardless of their age or size.
Alien Presence (Su): A Nether dragon's alien presence causes an opponent that fails its save to be overcome with dizziness, becoming sickened (or nauseated if the target has 4 or fewer Hit Dice) for 5d6 rounds.
Obliterate (Su) A young or older Nether dragon's bite deals an additional 2d6 points of negative energy damage. A creature reduced to 0 or fewer hit points by this attack must succeed at a Fortitude save or be immediately slain and reduced to ashes (as the disintegrate spell). The save DC is Constitution-based.
Nether Breath (Su) Instead of dealing cold damage, a very young or older void dragon can breathe a cone-shaped blast of Nether energy.

Description[]
Long ago, a black dragon pair came to Arvandor, and started a flight of their own. When they found a suitable place, they mated and left a brood. They returned to their own homeworld. Later on, Arvandor exploded and the eggs were infused with the energies from the explosion, creating a new type of dragon. Without their father or their mother's guidance, they are looking for a new identity as a new dragon species. In the time between the explosion and the present, the nether dragons have managed to reproduce themselves to healthy numbers.
Most of the flight has relegated themselves to the Nether Forest, around the deep lake of Lake Ogodan. However, the flight has spread out to other parts of the destroyed planet of Arvandor.
Nether dragons are the immature members of the netherwing dragonflight that are believed to be the spawn of Naltharion, but were affected by the incredible energies released by the destruction of Arvandor. Living in Arvandor's ruins, the nether drakes are available as flying mounts to swiftly transport players around the shattered world.
