## Weaknesses

The effects of a dimerititum bomb temporarily disable the magical abilities of a **Purple Dragon**.

### Moonstone Bomb

The effects of a moondust bomb temporarily disable the ability to polymorph into or out of a humanoid form.

A condition that most if not all Purple Dragons share that causes a itchy rash to form on their skin after being in sunlight or other sources of ultraviolet (UV) radiation. This can be overcome via covering themselves which is easier to do in their much smaller humanoid form.
