==Description==

==Relationships==

==Home==
Dragotha makes his lair in the [[Wormcrawl Fissure]], near [[Rift Canyon]].

==History==
Dragotha was formerly a powerful red dragon, the mightiest consort of [[Tiamat]]. At some point, Dragotha formed at alliance with [[Kyuss]], and for this affront was slain by his mistress, and was forced to leave [[Baator|Avernus]]. Given undead life by Kyuss, Dragotha soon became the Wormgod's greatest servant. 

Approximately -900 [[CY]], Dragotha led an army of minions of Kyuss against the druidic [[Order of the Storm]], until the Order stole Dragotha's phylactery and forced him to retreat. The phylactery was hidden away in the fortress of [[Kongen-Thulnir]].

In 318 [[CY]], the [[Company of Seven]] disturbed the lair of Dragotha while seeking out the lost citadel of [[Veralos]]. While taking shelter from the dracolich's servants, they managed to blunder into their goal.

==Dragotha in Greyhawk literature==
An expedition to Dragotha's lair is told of in the song, "[[Greyhawk literature|The Claws of Dragotha]]," which is believed to have been penned sometime in the [[fifth century CY]].
