Gemwarm the Tax of Bejeweling

Gemwarm the dragon (associated with wealth and fire) was one of the most powerful beings in The Ageless Realms. She existed since before the dawn of time and lived for more than one thousand years afterwards. During this time (known as the Age of Dragon and Forest Titan) she almost single-handedly destroyed the civilizations of the humans, elves and kobolds.

She made her lair in Fierysweltered (a cave) where she hid a hoard of trinkets stolen from surrounding settlements. With the death of the Forest Titan Nemo Peltoranges in 1009, Gemwarm became the single strongest creature to walk the Ageless realms and thus commenced "The age of Gemwarm"

In 1013, Gemwarm attacked the dwarven fortress, Delersholid in an attempt to stamp out the remnants of dwarven civilization. While she did manage to kill a small number of dwarves in the attack she was eventually captured in a wooden cage trap and was transferred to a stockpile where she stayed for 7 years. In 1020, The dwarves of Delersholid made an attempt at taming Gemwarm. While at first it seemed to be working, soon after she blew a gout of flame into a nearby stockpile where the fortress's children were playing. 8 children and an adult were killed including the dwarven baby, "Babybeard"

After the mishap, Gemwarm was trained to attack properly as a "War dragon" and was moved farther from the fortress into a side passage where the dwarves intended to use her as a guard against zombies.

Possibly due the the confusion of her move to the hallway or possibly her new training; when zombies finally entered the hall, Gemwarm was easily overcome and was killed, ending her reign. Due to the magics of The Scabrous Prairies (Where Delersholid was located) Gemwarm's corpse soon reanimated as a zombie and once more proceeded to attack Delersholid, albeit briefly. She was soon caught in another cage trap. Because Gemwarm died in the The Scabrous Prairies (an evil biome) the energies of the surrounding land reanimated her corpse as a zombie and she proceeded to attack Delersholid once more, albeit briefly. She was once again captured in a cage trap.
