Not all dragons act like the reclusive members of the Chamber. Many care nothing for the vaunted Prophecy, preferring the traditional pastimes of dining on humanoid flesh and amassing treasure. One such barbaric dragon lives in the dark heart of Xen’drik.
Belericax, an old green dragon, surrounds himself with terrified servants and accumulated wealth. Though he places little value on money, Belericax likes the sight of his amassed treasure, which he thinks makes him appear powerful. The great dragon enjoys sampling the flesh of different sentient races, and he takes great pleasure in torturing those who enter his territory.
Individuals captured by Belericax can attempt to talk their way out of danger by heaping praise on the dragon and offering him adequate tribute (which is to say, everything they own). Surviving relatives of those murdered by Belericax long for the dragon’s death, as do a number of good-hearted but weaker dragons. In particular, a young white dragon named Dyn’ceila grieves over Belericax’s evil ways and is constantly searching for a way to destroy him.
