Rejuvenation. If it dies, the naga returns to life in 1d6 days and regains all its hit points. Only a wish spell can prevent this trait from functioning.
Spellcasting. The naga is an 11th-level spellcaster. Its spellcasting ability is Wisdom (spell save DC 16, +8 to hit with spell attacks), and it needs only verbal components to cast its spells. It has the following cleric spells prepared: cantrips (at will): mending, sacred flame, thaumaturgy; 1st level (4 slots): command, cure wounds, shield of faith; 2nd level (3 slots): calm emotions, hold person; 3rd level (3 slots): beacon of hope, dispel magic; 4th level (3 slots): banishment, freedom of movement; 5th level (2 slots): flame strike, geas; 6th level (1 slot): true seeing.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 10 ft., one creature. Hit: 15 (2d10+4) piercing damage, and the target must make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw, taking 10 (3d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Spit Poison. Ranged Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, range 15/30 ft., one creature. Hit: the target must make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw, taking 10 (3d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
How hard a fight? Against a party of four, a single guardian naga is deadly at levels 1–6, hard at levels 7–8, medium at levels 9–10 and easy at levels 11–15, and barely a challenge from level 16. Add allies or more foes in the encounter generator.
Where you'll find it: dungeons and grasslands.
