Deep in the Starfrost Mountains somewhere, there sleeps a great Doom. Only his most faithful know the name of this great red dragon, but everyone has heard of it: the Inferno-That-Sleeps, and there is no doubt in anyone's mind that when he awakens, the Vale will burn. Worse yet, this dragon has an entire network of servants and worshippers, promised safety when the Inferno wakens.

Usual Location

The Slumbering Inferno sleeps deep within the Starfrost Mountains somewhere, though no one truly knows exactly where.

Allies

• The Aeriemaster and the Last Aerie are the perfect example of the kind of allies the Slumbering Inferno cultivates: those who fear his power and seek to propitiate his wrath when his inevitable awakening comes.
• The exact nature of the Slumbering Inferno's alliance with the Vundilan is unknown, but it is perhaps not surprising that the ever-sleeping red dragon and the strange, haunting dream-creature should come to some kind of accord between them.

Enemies

• When the Slumbering Inferno wakes, everyone knows he has a single goal: to set the Vale aflame with dragonfire, and to crack open Hammer Peak to steal its riches and make of it his demesnes. It is thus no surprise that he counts the Guilds and Thanes among his enemies, then.
• Long before he found his Slumber, the Inferno's rapaciousness made him an enemy to the Unicorn of the Frostwood, an enmity which survives to this day.

Unique Token Benefits

• Dreams of Flame and Fear: Those who serve the Slumbering Inferno have been known to share in the strange, burning dreams of their master, an act which invests them with single-use fire magics. These fires are distinctive, as they also cause surges of panic in those who witness them – the hallmark of the Slumbering Inferno.
• Servants of the Inferno: Though the Slumbering Inferno has many servitors, those who find his favor frequently discover bright crimson-scaled kobolds sneaking into their midst, willingly offering their aid for whatever mischief they are undertaking.
