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 Uppers Towers are a pair of imposing, four-story torchtowers located along Waterdeep's Trollwall, serving as vital guard posts for the city. Each tower is equipped with a debriefing room, a small armory, and six holding cells capable of accommodating up to ten individuals during emergencies. The towers also feature storage rooms for evidence, bedchambers for the watch, and garderobes. Three beacon-fires atop each tower are kept on standby, ready to signal for aid or alert the city. Manned by the vigilant City Watch, the Uppers Towers stand as a symbol of safety and order, separating the bustling North and Sea Wards from the more chaotic Field Ward.

Appearance

The towers are constructed of sturdy stone, adorned with the insignia of the City Watch, and feature large windows for visibility. The flickering light of the beacon-fires casts an ever-watchful glow over the surrounding area.
