This Temple dedicated to the Dragon-Goddess belongs to a small branch of the Cult of the Dragon, that have dedicated themselves to the service of the Dragon-Queen. At first glance it is a temple as all others, with offerings and hoards, as is the way of the dragons, and services dedicated to honoring and empowering the malevolent goddess. Five large statues with decorative heads stand imperially, one for each of the heads of Tiamat herself, with the corresponding treasures of each type laying at its base.
Secret
The Cult is hiding something far more powerful and malevolent than mere gold and treasures in the basement of this temple. The adventurers must use their knowledge of dragons and their preferred treasures to gain access to the inner sanctum, or "Egg-Nest" as is called by the cult members. Placing an item that is not favored by that specific dragon type will prompt the statues to unleash a powerful breath attack. If the heroes fail five time at this task, all five heads will unleash their powerful attacks, inflicting deadly damage. If on the other hand, they successfully place correct offerings to the dragon-statues, a glowing light will emit from them, and a spiral staircase will emerge from the center of the temple.
The Egg-Nests
The spiralling staircase takes the heroes deep below the earth, where 5 dragon eggs lie incubating in their corresponding elements. A red dragon egg rests in a pit of flames and lava, a blue one surrounded by water and electric currents, a black one in a foul swamp surrounded by foul toxins, a green one entangled by vines and guarded by plants with deadly poison, and a white one enshrined in ice and frost. These eggs themselves can bestow an astronomical fortune to whoever sells them to the right person, but their incubating areas and the cult, as well as the careful transportation of them, will not prove an easy task. Behind a massive ebony gate, an even greater treasure awaits the explorers.
