Dragons knowing heal spells?


Rules Questions


Greetings everyone

Whilst browsing through my bestiary 1 I noticed that the silver dragon adult and ancient example have heal spells like cure light and moderate wounds.
I was wondering how they can learn these spells as It states they know and cast spells as a sorcerer of the indicated level yet the heal spells arn't available to sorcerers? Am I missing something?


The Silver (and Gold) dragon specifically states they can cast cleric spells as arcane spells, in a notation at the bottom of the chart detailing special abilities and caster level per age category.

Are thank you, I accidently skimmed over that note.

Same thing pops up in a few other monster entries. Oddly enough, it always seems to happen to serpentine creatures. Take a look at the nagas and couatl: you'll see what I mean.

Yar.

You'll also note that Witches and Bards are arcane casters that have Cure spells on their spell lists.

Cure spells are not divine only, they can be arcane as well.

The Lamia Matriarch (at least in the 3.5 days) also could do this. Super nasty.
