Brimstone is a Vampiric Smoke Drake who features in The Year of Rogue Dragons trilogy by author Richard Lee Byers.
Appearance
Brimstone appears to be a normal, adult Smoke Drake. He has reddish black scales, and can change into a cloud of embers and smoke at will. The illusion of normalcy is shattered by the overlarge canines protruding from his mouth. Brimstone is a vampire, and must consume blood to maintain his strength.
History
Brimstone was a former agent of Sammaster, and assisted in his research and plots to further the ultimate goal of a dragon-ruled Faerun. He allowed Sammaster to turn him into a vampire, thinking this would win him favor. Unfortunately for Brimstone, Sammaster realized the disadvantages of vampires far outweighed their usefulness, and he discarded Brimstone. Since that day, Brimstone's only desire is to see Sammaster destroyed. Since the actual destruction however, he has felt a sense of emptiness.
Believed to be dead by his comrades, he remains in the North, in the citadel where the final battle against Sammaster took place, waiting and gathering power. During the Year of Rogue Dragons, he journeyed with Dorn Graybrook and his companions, but also did work on his own. Little is known of the time he spent apart from Graybrook.
He can remain apart from his hoard due to a magical collar that was shattered by Sammaster. A portion of the collar survived, and Brimstone placed it in his body to keep it safe.
Notable accomplishments by Brimstone are reversing the Vaasan Horde that were stirred up by Sammaster to cause confusion, help leading to the destruction of the Mythal that caused the dragon rage, and the saving of Gareth Dragonsbane, King of Damara.
