I've found this listed on numerous maps and have checked quite a few books. Does anyone know where to find or what is actually in the lair. It is between spiderhaunt woods and the desertmouth mountains.

Spoiler warning for Spellfire (highlight to read):
I believe Aghazstamn is dead - killed by Shandril Shessair. This info can be found in Cult of the Dragon, p. 24, but presumably its also in the novel Spellfire. So it cannot be Aghazstamn himself.
As to what can now be found in his lair.... mmmh - no idea. An abonend treasure maybe? Or as can be read on the NOrthern Journey Campaign home page: "Aghazstamns lair reportedly contained a rich load of sparkling, flickering glowstones, known as beljuril."

Since he was a dracolich of the Cult, I'd say one of two things happened upon his destruction. His lair was either abandoned, or given to another dragon (alive or undead). Either way, the Cult would have cleaned it out before doing anything else with it.

That does make sense. Could be a possibility to exploit as nifty dungeon master... |

On a sidenote ... I think I remember that passage in the novel, but as with normal liches, dracoliches are not that easily destroyed. Maybe you asked Mr. "FR-Dragons"* Eric L. Boyd whether he is still about?

Or just check the Roll Call of Dragons, which lists him as "disembodied".  |

The info in Dragons says he is disembodied, so he's not technically deceased.
Edit: Wooly got it first but I checked my NPC file instead. :) |
For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

If you look on the spreadsheet, he's listed on row 7. |

You're right, guess I need to fix that on my NPC file. Dunno where I got the great from.
Edit: Actually I have wyrm on my NPC file. Guess I went brain dead and added great to that for no reason. Ah well. |
