How to rule a Dragon Cult and Terrorize the Sword Coast

The first adventure to be published for 5th edition Dungeons & Dragons, Tyranny of
Dragons is a great adventure but requires a greater amount of DM planning than others.

That is where this guide comes in – it cuts down on the planning with updated and simple
descriptions, fixes and suggestions to make each chapter come alive for you and your
players with minimal effort from you – the DM.

Cultist Operations The cult organizes a variety of
operations which have been split into three
categories below:

Funding
 Lawful mercantile activities.
 Raiding caravans and homes.
 Forced donations of members.

Reconnaissance
 Gathering information on enemies.
 Researching dragon lore.
 Making alliances with dragons.

Combat
 Assassinating opponents/investigators.
 Guarding dragon lairs, hoards and eggs.
 Assaulting known enemies.

 Treasure
As the adventure is light on treasure, below are
recommended methods to supplement the players’
income:

• Use the treasure tables in the DMG (p.133) at

opportune moments.
• Let characters salvage equipment from fallen
foes to sell at half price as per the PHB (p. 144).
• Let players use downtime activities to earn an
income.

Below is a selection of magical items to supplement

those provided in the adventures. These can be placed
at appropriate junctures in the campaign when
suitable to the party’s level at the DM’s discretion. A
suggested location for each is in the subsequent
chapter guides. Shopkeepers and shops for magical
items have also been provided in different cities with
recommended inventory lists and prices.

The DM should vary all of this according to the level of

magic and magical items they prefer in their campaign.

Claw Finger of Potency
Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement by a spellcaster).

This claw finger is etched with draconic runes and can be used as an
arcane focus. While you use the claw finger as an arcane focus, you gain
a +1 bonus to spell attack rolls and the saving throw DCs of your spells.

While you use the claw finger as an arcane focus, you can use an action
to cast the Chromatic Orb spell with it. When you make the spell's
attack, you do so with an attack bonus of +5. The claw finger cannot be
used this way again until the next dawn.

Pendant of Tiamat
Wondrous item, uncommon.

A pendant crafted by a zealous mage in the service of the scaled

tyrant, it will unleash the fury of Tiamat in the element desired.

While attuned to the pendant of Tiamat, you can use an action to

cast the Burning Hands spell with it. You can choose the type of
damage dealt: acid, poison, fire, lightning or cold. The pendant
cannot be used this way again until the next dawn.

Cursed – on the 5th time (and on any subsequent occasions) that

the pendant is used by a non-believer of Tiamat, the spell turns
inwards and targets the caster instead – bathing them in the fury
of Tiamat. Roll randomly to determine the type of damage dealt.

Moon Dragon Robes

light armor (wondrous item, very rare), requires attunement by a
spellcaster.

This elegant garment is made from the scales of a moon dragon and
adorned with silvery runes. It is said that the dragon Hayliatharix slew
a rival moon dragon and crafted this robe from their corpse to disgrace
their memory and celebrate their victory forever more.

You gain these benefits while wearing the robe:

• If you are not wearing armor, your base armor class is 14 +

your dexterity modifier.

• Your spell save DC and spell attack bonus each increase by 1.

11
Redscale Bracers
Wondrous item, rare (requires attunement).

While wearing these bracers, you gain resistance to fire damage and
you can speak, read and write Draconic.

Armring of Jörmungandr
Wondrous item, rare, (requires attunement).

An armring crafted by a storm giant for their human ally, this

armring wraps around the arm of a warrior and empowers their
strikes when commanded.

You can use an action to offer a weapon of your choice to the

armring. Its head will animate and bite down on the blade,
imbuing it with a thick, blue poison. The poison remains for 1
minute or until this weapon hits a creature.
.
That creature must succeed on a DC 15 constitution saving throw
or take 2d10 poison damage and become poisoned for 1 minute.
The armring cannot be used this way again until the next dawn.

Drakestaff
Staff, very rare, (requires attunement by a sorcerer, warlock or wizard).

This staff has 10 charges for the following properties. It regains 1d6 +
4 expended charges daily at dawn. If you expend the last charge, roll a
d20. On a 1, the staff becomes a nonmagical quarterstaff.

Spells. You can use an action to expend 1 or more of the staff’s charges
to cast one of the following spells from it, using your spell save DC: fly
(3 charges), fireball (3 charges), cone of cold (5 charges), lightning bolt
(3 charges), Melf’s acid arrow (2 charges) or cloudkill (5 charges).

 Forging Dragon Armor & Weapons

Harvesting parts of a dragon carcass requires a medicine check as per the DC in the table below. If a member of the
party holds the dragon scholar background, they can add +2 to the roll. Only young, adult and ancient dragons can be
harvested in this way – wyrmlings are too immature to provide the necessary components.

These parts can be sold for the amount mentioned underneath or used to craft an item if the party has the formula for
the item. Example locations for each item’s formula are spread throughout the chapters of this guide. If a party member
holds the associated tool/proficiency, they can attempt to craft it. Otherwise, they will require an NPC to do so.
Example NPCS are spread throughout the chapters of this guide who can offer this service.
