Show Notes
In this episode of Roll for Lore, we dive deep into the dark and calculating mind of Szass Tam, one of the most dangerous necromancers in the Forgotten Realms. From his rise within the Red Wizards of Thay to his transformation into an immortal lich, Szass Tam’s story is one of ambition, cruelty, and long-term planning on a truly terrifying scale. We explore his role in Thayan politics, his repeated attempts at godhood, and how his schemes have shaped Faerûn across multiple editions of D&D. Whether you see him as a classic villain or a masterclass in lawful evil, this episode breaks down why Szass Tam remains one of the greatest undead threats in D&D history.
