=== Personality ===
Frulam is methodical and unflinching, treating warfare like a religious ritual. To her, every raid and sacrifice brings Tiamat one step closer to ascension. While she has little patience for incompetence, she is not without a twisted sense of humor, especially when dealing with prisoners or rivals.
Her devotion to Tiamat is not blind fanaticism but an intellectual conviction — she genuinely believes the multiverse thrives under divine tyranny and that chaos must be tamed through fear.
=== Role in the Campaign ===
Frulam commanded the siege of [[Greenest]], directing ground troops while coordinating with the blue dragon [[Lennithon]]. From her vantage point on the battlefield, she orchestrated ambushes (such as the **false fire at the [[Greenest Mill]]**) and personally sanctioned the search for dragon eggs rumored to be hidden nearby.
She later retreats to the cultist encampment outside Greenest, where she continues preparations for the transport of treasure and relics to the greater hoard at the Well of Dragons.

Frulam Mondath

    • Frulam Mondath** is a high-ranking field commander within the Cult of the Dragon, responsible for orchestrating the devastating Siege of Greenest in 1488 DR. Cunning, disciplined, and utterly devoted to the cause of Tiamat, Mondath is one of the cult’s most capable human leaders — a priestess of both charisma and cruelty.

Background

Frulam was once a scholar and priestess in Baldur’s Gate, studying comparative theology and ancient draconic cults. Her obsession with divine hierarchy led her to the Cult of the Dragon, where she quickly rose through the ranks under the black half-dragon wyrmspeaker **Rezmir**. Her analytical mind and tactical brilliance made her indispensable in coordinating the early hoard-gathering missions that would fund Tiamat’s return.

By the time of the Greenest raid, Mondath had already orchestrated several successful temple sackings and caravan ambushes. Her leadership of the Greenest operation marked the first open strike of the cult’s campaign — a deliberate show of strength designed to test both mortal resistance and Tiamat’s chosen servants.

Relationships

  • **Rezmir** – Her direct superior within the Cult of the Dragon and black half-dragon wyrmspeaker.
  • **Lennithon** – Blue dragon ally bound by pact magic; used as an instrument of terror during the siege.
  • **Governor Nighthill** – Her primary adversary in Greenest’s defense.
  • **Leosin Erlanthar** – Captured and interrogated under her orders following the raid.
