Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mort Strudel" data-source="post: 8579890" data-attributes="member: 7035428">I've read through a lot of Fizban's, and I'm using it as the basis for a lot of the lore for my new spelljammer-adjacent campaign. It frames the greatwyrms trying to resurrect Sardior as being an apocalyptic group. This is because the death of Sardior didn't just destroy Sardior and create the gem dragons from the fragments, but also destroyed the First World and created the worlds of the multiverse from the fragments.In this way, Sardior's death serves a lore function and sets up Spelljammer/Planejammer, unifying the origin stories of the various settings.The book is absolutely full of things trying to set up a multi-world setting. It talks a lot about Dragonsight, a power dragons have to communicate with their echoes in other worlds. The cult trying to raise Sardior specifically is encouraging as many dragons as possible to awaken their dragonsight. This is because dragons who communicate with their echoes can merge their conciousnesses across universes, which is how a dragon ascends to becoming a Greatwyrm. The cult believes that this process of merging dragons across universes will eventually reverse the fragmenting of Sardior.More relevant for mortals is the possibility that bringing back Sardior would ALSO cause the multiverse to collapse back into the First World, as his destruction is what turned the First World into a multiverse in the first place. If THAT happened, all of the material plane as we know it would be destroyed.Of course, whether any of this would be possible is pretty dubious, and would likely be stopped by the Gods anyway.</blockquote>
