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 House of Heroes stands as one of the largest temples in Waterdeep, dedicated to Tempus, the Lord of Battles. This grand three-story structure serves as a sanctuary for warriors and a place of worship, where the tenets of honorable combat and respect for war are celebrated. Located at the corner of Lions and Jelzar's Stride, across from the bustling Field of Triumph, the temple honors not only the champions of battle but also victors of local sports competitions, immortalizing their names and visages within its hallowed halls. The temple provides services for combatants and spectators alike, including healing from the clergy. Following local competitions, winners are celebrated with parades through the temple, carried on the shoulders of the crowd. Despite its tragic destruction during the Night of Temple Fires, the House of Heroes was rebuilt and continues to thrive, led by High Sword Turik Bloodhelm and Prior Maxtilar Rhebbos, fostering the fighting arts and the spirit of valor.
