Gondar (? PC - ? PC) was a male Red Dragon that posed as the seneschal for King Frederick of Fredericksborough. He had a plan to rid himself of the best dragon-slayers so he could rest. His home and horde was under Black Mountain.
The Best[]
Gondar summoned Ulanda, Eric of Truestone, Reynard Deft-Hand, and Orin Dark-Seer to come to Fredericksborough to assist with a red dragon. Gondar posed as a human with the help of a Ring of Shapechange, and told them that the red dragon had taken the ransom that was to be used to secure King Frederick's freedom from his dark brother, the Duke of Norhampton. They agreed, feeling that the red dragon in question was also the same dragon that had stolen some of their treasures.
After locating the dragons' lair, Gondar revealed his true form that of the Red Dragon. He stabbed Reynard in the back, activated one of his artifacts that was around Ulanda's neck that ripped her throat out, threw Orin into a pool of lava, and incinerated Eric. He then reanimated Ulanda and Reynard's corpses to guard his lair and he finally was able to sleep.
