Spells: Casts spells as a paladin equal to its level.
Spell Resistance (Ex): 10 + Hit Dice.
NOTE: Lightning Draconian Death Throes: When a lightning draconian dies, its body explodes in a massive charge of electricity. At 1st level, this causes 1 hp of damage to the one landing the killing strike so long as he strikes with a metallic weapon. If the killing blow was landed at range or with a non-metallic weapon, then the shock attacks the first person touching the lightning draconian. At 3rd level, the damage increases to 1d6 hp. At 5th level, this burst imitates a shocking grasp, targeting either the metallic-weapon killer or someone touching him (as explained previously). At 7th level, the death throe imitates a lightning bolt, striking the nearest creature. At 9th level, the lightning bolt arcs immediately to a second creature, dealing half the damage it dealt to the first. At 11th level, the death throe imitates chain lightning, striking the nearest creature and arcing to other targets. When imitating a spell, the death throe is cast as a sorcerer equal to the lightning draconian's Hit Dice.
