The Chain of Tiamat

The Chain of Tiamat

Type	Amulet

The Chain of Tiamat is an amulet depicting the five headed dragon goddess Tiamat. It was crafted by members of the Cult of the Dragon and many years later was given to the Black Dragon Greela Venomseer in return for Greela traveling to the Ten Hells to serve Barroth the Unredeemable. After Greela was slain, the amulet was claimed by the clockwork sorcerer Aivan Factorovich. It is a three stage magic item.

Description

As a three stage magic item, when a new user initially attunes to the amulet, they can only access stage 1 abilities. But if they continue to use the amulet's powers, they can unlock stages 2 and 3.

• When you deal damage with a spell, you may change the damage type to your chosen one.
• Tiamat's Favor. Once per long rest, when you cast a spell that deals damage, you can invoke Tiamat’s Favor, adding +2 to your spell save DC and spell attack rolls for that spell.

Stage 2

• You gain a second resistance from the list above.
• You can now use Tiamat’s Favor twice per long rest.
