Ikuda

Ikuda in an ancient gold dragon, residing on the island of Snorkeldamp in the Underdark. Ikuda is the current patron of The Dragon Knights and bestowed a boon upon them after they fought with the Aboleths building a psychic amplifier at the bottom of the sea.

Ikuda is the quasi-spiritual leader of the island that is populated primarily by Deep Gnomes that revere him and covet gold that they incorporate into their own bodies. Visitors often remark that the residents are almost annoyingly polite.

Ikuda has a tendency to True Polymorph those that annoy him into Deep Gnomes, going even to the point of modifying his victim's memories so that they think they had always been a gnome.
