Sword Coast, Faerûn

Tumbledown is a somber district situated just beyond the Cliffgate, southeast of Baldur's Gate's Lower City. Nestled at the foot of Dusthawk Hill and adjacent to the River Chionthar, the area is enveloped in near-constant mist and fog. Dominated by a sprawling cemetery, Tumbledown serves as the city's primary necropolis, housing the remains of countless souls. The district's eerie atmosphere is heightened by local legends of hauntings, particularly those surrounding the Szarr family crypts, remnants of a once-grand estate destroyed in a violent feud. Despite its melancholic reputation, Tumbledown is a place of quiet reflection, where residents honor the dead and maintain a respectful distance from the city's bustling life.

Tumbledown presents a landscape of aged gravestones, overgrown paths, and gnarled, leafless trees. The district's architecture consists of simple, weather-worn houses with creaking shutters and flickering lanterns that cast dim glows through the perpetual fog. The air carries the scent of damp earth and wildflowers, mingling with whispers that seem to emanate from the mist itself.
