The Wish Mother

'What do you desire, oh killer mine?'- The Wish Mother's dying question.
The Wish Mother was an ancient extraplanar wish-naga, a snakelike black dragon with a body made of stars, capable of controlling wisps and granting wishes. 
== The Old One of Desire ==
Her domain was desire and greed. Her mark was often of an ouroboros, a snake eating its tail, or otherwise serpentine and starry in nature. 
== Actions in the 16th Century ==
After corrupting the mind of Dagult Neverember around 1500, she found he was already hugely inclined toward greed. She possessed him to incline him to build a vault beneath Jarren's Well, which she then settled in for a few years amongst half a million gold coins. However, unbeknownst to her, Dagult left behind a family heirloom, a shield capable of killing her, and clues to its whereabouts. This stone set off a goose chase in 1502s Waterdeep. 
She was vanquished by the Naysayers - Fionn McCullen, Venom Neverember, some others, and Jed Wood fought her after taking up Dagult's shield. She possessed gold coins into shapes of knights and serpents to fight them, and she herself whipped at them with a starry tail that chilled them to the core. She whispered deeply into their minds as she died.
Jed used some catapulted Waterdhavian (cheese) to kill her, losing an arm in the process after venturing into her black-and-white wispy demiplane, the only place her heart could be damaged. 
In her death, she granted several wishes, one of which to Jed Wood - he wished that as long as Velarin Naysayer lived, the God Wars could not happen. This wish became a very important point later, especially for The Agents of Chaos. The others wished for metal arms and hammers of thunderbolts. Pretty nifty.
