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

Castle Waterdeep stands as a formidable fortress in the heart of the city, its 60-ft-thick walls towering high, adorned with vibrant banners that flutter in the breeze, visible from the southern districts. The castle is illuminated by continual light spells, casting a warm glow on its stone passageways. With provisions to sustain 50,000 for ten days and 90 cells for 540 prisoners, it serves both as a government seat and a stronghold. Garrisoned by 1,400 City Guards and trained City Watch members, the castle's courtyard echoes with the sounds of drills. Seventy warhorses reside in the stables, ready for swift action. The battlements, grimly, are used for the execution of non-nobles, a stark reminder of the law's reach. Construction began in 963 DR, marking the castle as a symbol of strength and authority just outside the city walls.
