With Sammaster destroyed and unable to enforce his vision of the cult's missive, Tiamat has been able to sway significant portions of the Cult to instead revering [[Chromatic Dragon]]s as living avatars of destruction, with herself as the pinnacle of everything that makes the chromatics divine, by asserting that the true translation of the prophecy is more along the lines of "dragons will rise up and strike down all who sit upon the thrones of the world, taking their rightful place as its rulers". There are still believers of the old guard around, and the Cult is actually fighting an internal war between old guard and new believers, but the main focus is on the Tiamat-worshippers.

	One of the weirder villainous organizations in the [[Forgotten Realms]] setting for [[Dungeons & Dragons]], the '''Cult of the Dragon''' is a mad cult made up of humanoids who have turned to worshipping [[dracolich]]es as incarnate gods and see it as their holy duty to both entice more [[dragon]]s to undergo the [[lich]] transformation, which they are happy to help with, and to aid dracoliches in their various schemes. They were founded by Sammaster, a former Chosen of [[Mystra]] who went insane when he couldn't accept that he had mistranslated a prophecy about dragons coming to rule Faerûn after some great apocalypse when he claimed that it would instead result in the world being ruled by undead dragons. Sammaster became a [[Lich]] himself to try and make his vision come to reality and was ultimately destroyed as part of a foiled plan to exploit the [[Rage of Dragons]], an event that makes up the Year of Rogue Dragons trilogy of novels.
