The Prismatic Dragons
A new family of dragons for D&D 5eInspired by the prismatic wall spell, the prismatic dragons come in seven main colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet (ROYGBIV).

Dragons in Every Color of the Rainbow
The seven main colors of prismatic dragons are directly inspired by the seven layers of the prismatic wall spell. Each layer has a unique effect and weakness which correspond to the breath weapons and vulnerabilities of the prismatic dragons.
The colors don't stop at ROYGBIV. There are legends of white, black, and even magenta prismatic dragons.
To learn more about what makes each color of prismatic dragon unique, read the Color Descriptions.
