Design details

In the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game, Astilabor (As-TIL-uh-bore[1]) is the dragon deity of hoards.[2]

Publishing history

Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd edition (1989-1999)

Astilabor was first detailed for the Forgotten Realms campaign setting in the original Draconomicon (1990).[1]

Dungeons & Dragons 3.0 edition (2000-2007)

Astilabor's priesthood and her role as a draconic deity are further detailed in the third edition Draconomicon (2003).[2]

Description

In the game, Astilabor represents the desire in all dragons to acquire wealth and power. However, she dislikes greed. She cannot abide thievery unless such an act is done in the name of building one's hoard.

Worshippers

All of her followers are neutral in some aspect of their alignment.[2] She discourages her clerics from becoming involved in draconic politics and seeks to reward dragons with unusually impressive hoards.
