King-Killer Star

The King-Killer Star was a reddish cometary body, visible from Toril, once linked to the Dracorage mythal. Its periodic appearance in the skies of Abeir-Toril caused dragons to go mad with rage, destroying and killing without reason.

History
An attempt was made around -3500 DR by dragonkind to destroy the King-Killer Star. The missed shot nicked Selûne and created the Tears.
