Background
Karakathar is a bronze dragon who was possessed and controlled by a golden tooth — an artifact looted from Chult. While under its influence, Karakathar landed on Gum Gum's ship, a direct and dangerous confrontation between the dragon and the Moonshae Pirates.
The party retrieved the golden tooth from Karakathar, breaking the possession. Gum Gum subsequently used the tooth — the exact nature of that use and its outcome is unestablished.
