I would homebrew this as the result of a failed attempt to create a Dracolich/Drow combo. Find it restrained in a dungeon "lab", long abandoned, but still alive because it's undead.

Fun fact! This stat block predates the birth of the child in the post!

This is a real stat block? The "it's" typo feels sus.

It's not official, but why does that matter?

That creature looks uncomfortable. Also, it's been a while since I did anything D&D — aren't those stats buffed a whole lot?

A Google search (ai response, so take it with a grain of salt) suggested a 5 person party could take a dragon with 136 hp and 18 a at levels 8-9 comfortably. 7-8 would be hard, 5-6 would be very difficult but possible. Depends on the DM too.

Note I don't play much 5e, and my experience in TTRPGs outside a few single session stuff is mostly one Pathfinder 2e campaign currently at level 6.

It sorta looks like somebody kitbashed a new mini and had to invent a stat block for it.

When I have print failures, I try to kitbash failed pieces together into monstrosities. I totally believe this.
