100 years ago, the evil mage Damodar -- formerly TheDragon to Jeremy Irons' BigBad in the previous ''Dungeons & Dragons'' movie -- fought against the people of Ishmir and was cursed with a century of suffering as one of the undead. Now he has is back and intends to free Faluzure to take his revenge on Ishmir.

3000 years ago, Faluzure, the evil dragon god of decay and undeath, attacked the kingdom of Turan. The Turanian mages (with the help of the god Obadhai) were able to repel Faluzure and imprison him.

100 years ago, the evil mage Damodar -- formerly TheDragon to Jeremy Irons' BigBad in the previous ''Dungeons & Dragons'' movie -- fought against the people of Izmir and was cursed with a century of suffering as one of the undead. Now Damodar is back. He intends to free Faluzure and take his revenge on Izmir.

* DontTouchItYouIdiot: Nim stops Lux from impulsively grabbing the chest in the Goblin village, [[GenreSavvy knowing that it's been trapped]].

* DungeonCrawling: Quite possibly the best part of the movie.

* FiveManBand: The party fits just about perfectly into the following roles.
** TheHero: Berek.
** TheLancer: Nim.
** TheBigGuy: Lux.
** TheSmartGuy: Ormaline.
** TheHeart: Dorian.

* InNameOnly: Izmir bears absolutely no resemblance to the one in the first movie, and Damodar might as well be a new character played by the same actor if he hadn't offhandedly mentioned the events of the first movie once. Otherwise there is no connection whatsoever to the first movie. On the other hand, it is much more of an adaptation of the board game than the first one is.

'''''Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God''''' (also known as ''Dungeons & Dragons: The Elemental Might'') is a 2005 made-for-TV live-action movie set in the ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' universe. Unlike the ''Film/DungeonsAndDragons'' film released in 2000, ''Wrath of the Dragon God'' is clearly based upon its source material -- to the point at which it often seems as if its characters are simply explaining various aspects of the Player's Handbook to one another.

The people behind this produced a third film called ''Film/DungeonsAndDragonsTheBookOfVileDarkness'', which premiered on SyFy in November 2012.

* AnticlimaxBoss: [[invoked]] Both times they fight him, our heroes have no trouble beating Damodar in physical combat. Well he ''is'' a wizard. They beat him in combat both times by being physical, which wouldn't really be a wizard's strength. However, he was a fighter in the previous movie... His loss of that skill makes him quite an anticlimax. He must be a century out of training.

* DarkestHour: Just before [[spoiler:Melora uses her faith to defeat the dragon. Recap: [[GameBreaker Dorian's]] dead, Lux and Nim are incapacitated, Ormaline is incapacitated and has lost an arm, Melora's slowly turning into an evil undead creature from a curse, the king is dead, the captain of the guard is dead, the Head of the Council of Mages was killed and replaced long ago, and the rest of the city guard and remaining council mages are putting up a fruitless fight against the dragon god while he rains destruction upon the land.]]

* EvilIsNotAToy: Subverted/Averted Faluzure seems quite amicable to his releaser. Although since Damodar had released him from thousands of years of imprisonment, you can assume he'd probably be grateful. Plus, Damodar said that he wished to rule over Izmir "As your thrall", meaning that despite freeing him, he still acknowledged Faluzure as his master and better. Faluzure even pauses to set a tithe rate.

** Maybe he's only half-halfling?
*** [[MindScrew A quarterling?]]
*** [[OverlyLongGag Or would that be a three-quarterling?]]

* SacrificialLion: [[spoiler:Dorian. Pretty much required for the rest of the plot, since he had [[GameBreaker healing magic and powerful anti-undead abilities.]]]]

* TeleFrag: Due to an unfortunate flaw built into the pool of sight, Malek died by teleporting himself directly into a wall.[[spoiler: Later, Ormaline does the same thing, but only loses an arm in the process.]]

--> '''Berek:''' Did malek have a wife or children?
--> '''Nim:''' ''*Gives Berek a'' "really?" ''glance*''

* TokenEvilTeammate: Nim, who is officially stated to be ChaoticGood but comes across as ChaoticNeutral ''at best''. His ''introductory scene'' has him nonchalantly tricking a couple of fellow thieves into triggering a trap that roasts them alive, after which Nim steals their stuff.
** [[AssholeVictim Though, they did try to rip him off.]]

* {{Hobbits}}: According to WordOfGod and AllInTheManual, Nim is a halfling even though he is only a little shorter than everyone else.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: A scene that was written but never filmed showed how Berek obtained his Vorpal sword (which inexplicably shows up in his possession directly after the Dark Mantle attack), and how Lux lost her own sword. It showed a classic D&D scenario of a treasure in the center of a room over a lethal fall/bottomless pit, where Berek obtains the sword but falls and Lux has to save him. Time and Budget restrictions prevented it from being filmed.

* DarkestHour: Just before [[spoiler:Melora uses her faith to defeat the dragon. Recap: [[GameBreaker Dorian's]] dead, Lux, Ormaline and Nim are incapacitated, Melora's dying from an undead curse, the king is dead as is the captain of the guard, and the rest of the city guard and remaining council mages are putting up a fruitless fight against the dragon god while he rains destruction upon the land.]]

* ActuallyPrettyFunny: When Ormaline's animal companion Ona gets killed by the lightning floor trap in Malek's vault, Nim can't help but laugh. Needless to say, everyone stares like he just cracked a dead baby joke, though Lux and Berek can be seen [[{{Corpsing}} stifling their own laughter]].

* IOweYouMyLife

* LargeHam: Everyone has their moments, but Damodar is king of the ham heap with Lux coming in at a close second.

* SacrificialLion: [[spoiler:Dorian. Pretty much required for the rest of the plot, since he had healing magic and powerful anti-undead abilities.]]
* SamusIsAGirl: Lux's introductory scene fools the viewer into believing the barbarian they're talking about is another character - until she knocks said character out with a punch to the head.
