Attitude. Neutral. Ileuthra has watched the lesser
races for long centuries from the planes, and he
understands that every individual humanoid possesses
the potential for good or evil in equal measure. He is
truly undecided, and w ill weigh all options for action
against the cult.
Concession. Ileuthra believes that the dragon
masks are too dangerous to remain in the world if the
humanoid races are aware of where they’re hidden.
If the characters agree that all dragon masks w ill be
handed over to the metallic dragons as soon as they are
found—including any masks captured after the final
battle—his attitude can be improved.
O t a a r y l i a k k a r n o s
Female Silver Dragon
The representative of the silver dragons believes that
among the lesser races, neither good nor bad is ever
absolute. The humanoids are in need of protection and
guidance, and should be shown Bahamut’s righteous
way of living rather than ignored and treated as
children. If the dragons refuse to engage the humanoids
and focus only on their own advancement, the
humanoids w ill persist in making the same mistakes
again and again.
Otaaryliakkarnos’s faith in the potential of humanoids
has something of a blind spot when it comes to
dwarves, however. She resents the dwarves for their
Dragonmoots of old—great hunts during which clans
would come together to end the perceived threat of a
particular dragon. Centuries before, Otaaryliakkarnos’s
niece was killed in a Dragonmoot, and with the long
ancestral memory of the metallic dragons, she holds all
dwarves responsible.
Attitude. Neutral. If the party includes one or more
dwarves, Otaaryliakkarnos is instead unfriendly.
Desire. Otaaryliakkarnos would like the metallic
dragons to strike now as Protanther suggests, but she
does not know if they can succeed alone. An alliance
would reduce casualties for all parties, but the dragons
must be certain of the intentions of the factions and
their leaders.
Concession. Otaaryliakkarnos knows that the skin of
her slain kin was used to make armor for the dwarf lord
who slew her. She demands the remains be returned
and that Ambassador Brawnanvil make an apology
on behalf of all dwarves for the wrongful deaths the
Dragonmoots have caused.
N y m m u r h
Male Bronze Dragon
Of all the dragons on the council, Nymmurh disagrees
most strongly with Protanther. He knows that the
metallic dragons are made in the image of Bahamut,
and have no choice in the matter of being good or evil.
Thus, how much greater and more precious is good
when it is freely chosen by the humanoids, who must
consciously turn away from villainy?
Nymmurh’s belief in the potential of humanoids
is partly driven by his affection for and protection of
the noble Silmerhelve human family in Waterdeep
(including Dala Silmerhelve; see the “Council of
Waterdeep” episode).
Desire. Nymmurh would like to help the factions,
looking to the Harpers and the Order of the Gauntlet as
epitomizing the best traits of humanoid aspiration.
Attitude. Unless the party has engaged in problematic
behavior in his presence (or where he would hear of
it), Nymmurh is friendly. He knows that the characters
come to the council on the recommendation of those he
respects and loves.
Concession. Nymmurh needs no concession unless
the characters have somehow offended him. In such a
scenario, the adventurers must prove their worth and
goodness in a way you deem suitable.
