At a Glance

Tiamat —also known as the Dragon Queen, the Dark Lady, and the Nemesis of the Gods— is a power of the Draconic, Faerûnian, and Untheric pantheons.

Tiamat is the progenitor of the chromatic dragons. She’s also known as the Chromatic Dragon, to reflect her primal nature. She is opposed by Bahamut, the father of metallic dragons.

She has manifested at least four avatars in Unther.

  • One participated in the Orcgate Wars, and was slain by Marduk
  • Her cult summoned the Dark Lady in 1346 DR
  • One was sent to Unther during the Time of Troubles, and slain by Gilgeam
  • Finally, she created another avatar and slew Gilgeam following the ToT

Tiamat is the subject of the Tyranny of Dragons campaign, connected with the launch of 5th edition of the Forgotten Realms setting.

Personal History


The Xaeyruudh Campaign

Following her defeat of Gilgeam, she’s the last remaining member of the Untheric pantheon and the cult of Tiamat becomes the official church of Unther. She is essentially the goddess of everything, as far as (most of) the people of Unther are concerned.
