This is a custom adaptation of Waterdeep. Designed for narrative-rich, exciting experience.


Author's Note: Welcome to Waterdeep, The City of Splendors! A WIP with more characters, monsters, locations, and more to come! Updates will be frequent. This is a custom adaptation of Waterdeep, one of the most iconic cities in the Forgotten Realms. Designed with plans to supports both Waterdeep: Dragon Heist and Dungeon of the Mad Mage, letting you explore the city above and the madness below. Though these will be optional as you are free to explore the city as you please. This is meant as a way to learn or enjoy Dungeons & Dragons and not to replace the original experience. Nothing replaces the experience of a real table, a real Dungeon Master, and a group of friends. If this inspires you, support the official releases and pick up the books! Even if you never play in person they're nice to own and use for reference. Remember to sync often! I update frequently, roadmap and recent updates below.
