Who is Themberchaud in Dungeons & Dragons

Themberchaud is unlike any traditional red dragon, hoarding land, gold, and sacrifices to help feed his particularly large stature.

Looking back on D&D lore, Themberchaud, otherwise known as the Wyrmsmith of Gracklstugh is an adult red dragon closely allied with the Duergar of the Underdark who would essentially worship this creature, often bringing sacrifices and tributes to the great beast.

Their reason for worship was due to the creature’s immense fire breath, which he used to heat and power the Duergar’s city forges. His breath forged famous dwarven-steel blades and threw the city of Gracklstugh into prosperity.

As seen within the film, Themberchaud is often seen as extremely fat, temperamental, lazy, and unable to fly due to his immense size. The film also explores Themberchaud apparent escape from the city of Gracklstugh into this new region, perhaps hinting at future appearances or destruction that may envelop the depths of the Underdark.
