Cult of the Dragon Organization in Faerun - Forgotten Realms Setting | World Anvil

Cult of the Dragon

The Cult of the Dragon is an order of strange necromancers who believe in an apocalyptic prophecy that the world will one day be ruled over by dragons. Rather than wait to be burned to ash or eaten by the coming apocalypse, the cult seeks to make allies among dragonkind by serving them now and hoping that their loyal service is one day repaid. Unlike the sniveling kobolds, however, the cult offers a particularly valuable service to the greedy dragons: immortality in the form of undeath. The cult alone holds the secrets to the creation of dracoliches, and they offer this prize to dragons in exchange for the dracolich’s fealty to the cult. Though this pact is magically enforced, in truth, most dragons are clever enough to find loopholes in the magical bargain and manage to kill their benefactors and gain their freedom. These many, many small hiccups aside, the cult continues to grow and has spread through much of Sembia and gained a small foothold in Marsember and Hilp.
