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.

Description

The City of the Dead: Watch Tower is a four-story torchtower nestled within Waterdeep's graveyard district, the City of the Dead. This imposing structure serves as a vital outpost for the City Watch, featuring a debriefing room, a small armory, holding cells, and storage for evidence. The tower is equipped with three beacon-fires, always ready to illuminate the night sky. Inside, four members of the Watch maintain vigilance, while one officer patrols the surrounding alleyways, ensuring the peace in this somber area. The tower stands as a sentinel over the resting places of the city's departed, a reminder of the balance between life and death in Waterdeep.

Appearance

A tall, stone structure with three flickering beacon-fires atop, casting an eerie glow over the graveyard. The walls are adorned with symbols of protection and vigilance, and the air is thick with the scent of damp earth and aged stone.
