Monastary of Bahamut

The Monastary of Bahamut is located approximately three quarters of the way up the Zindro Flame, a large volcano located centrally in the Ashlands, home to the Dragonborn. Worshippers at this monastary are devout followers of the Platinum Dragon.

For the past 60 years or so, an unusual change has taken place in the Monastary. A Dragonborn priest by the name of Ekath has taken stronghold and revolutionized the religion of the locals. Ekath claims to have spoken to a council of great dragons (lawful good, as claimed), which taught him the way of Dragonetics, which teaches Dragonborn to embrace their true immortal dragon selves. Practitioners of this trade are first surveyed by the process of "Appraisal" to determine their true purity as a dragonborn. Multiple courses are offered for initiates, however each course requires a fee of increasing magnitudes, the proceeds of which appear to go to "Dragonkind". Critics of the practice are heralded as heretics, and named Repressors. These individuals are frequently harrassed, ambushed, or go missing in the middle of the night, never to be seen again. Despite the controversy surrounding Ekath's methods, the practice appears to be gradually spreading downwards, into the more rural communities of the Ashlands. There exist several political and renegade groups which have attempted to dismantle this new religion, and to regenerate the mountain to its original values.
