perhaps you could solve its mysteries and overcome the mad mage dungeons and dragons water deep dungeon of the mad mage is an adventure set in the undermount for those who prefer your classical dungeon delve here i will detail the events that occurs in the adventure while it is 5th edition's version of a mega dungeon there's more to it than just a hack and slash adventure smart role playing and quick wits may take you a long way down when exploring the undermountain i will try to guide you through as much of the story as i can but please understand that this adventure is absolutely massive not everything will be covered as this video is nearly an hour long it would take me ages to cover it all that being said i'll be covering what happens at each of the levels along with a bit of the backstory without further ado let's explore the story of waterdeep dungeon of the mad mage [Music] under mountain overview over a thousand years ago a wizard named hallister black cloak journeyed from a distant land to the base of mount waterdeep some believe he hailed from the nearly forgotten empire known as the cradle lands others give hallister less ancient origins placing him among the early wizards of netheril whatever his origin scholars have recorded that hallister brought with him seven apprentices to mount waterdeep with the seven guarding his back hollister tapped into his immense power to summon beings from other planes of existence to help him build a wizard's tower to dwarf all others as the seasons went on the seven apprentices saw less and less of their master hollister continued to use creatures from distant planes for construction beneath his tower and the wizard kept the nature of most of his underground dealings a secret from the seven eventually hallister's exploration broke into the underhalls a complex of tunnels and rooms built by the dwarves around a mithral mine beneath mount waterdeep the architects of the underhalls the malarkin clan had long ago been killed or dispersed and warring duergar and drow has settled in the ruins hallister began a crusade against both the drow and the duogar participating in wild hunts with extra planer allies through the tunnels the stubborn durgars dug in until the mithra was largely mined out then they abandoned the underhalls leaving the drought to fight hallister and his minions alone the mad mage rounded up the remaining dark elves trapping some of their souls for use in his dark magic while twisting the bodies and enslaving the minds of others once he had rung the drow of their usefulness hallister black cloak tunneled on ever downward indulging in his compulsion for delving deeper and deeper into the mountain using his underground complex as a base of operations hallister traveled to other plains and distant lands collecting strange and dangerous creatures to live as prisoners servants or guardians in under mountain over time the mage's preoccupation with undermountain electrified his eccentricities and infused him with an air of unconcealable madness hallister's apprentices came and went some left only to return drawn down into undermountain steps others remained by his side as they began dedicating more attention to their private obsessions madness settled into their souls as well during the years hallister quested on other planes and sequestered himself in his tunnels his magnificent tower and its surrounding walls fell into ruin in time the city now known as waterdeep developed in the shadow of mount waterdeep and spread down to the harbor as the city sprawled outward over the years it came to surround the ruins of hallister's home undermountain was known to those early settlers and they often sent criminals into his endless depths as punishment so it was for many years until an adventurer named durnam delved into the labyrinth beneath the tower and returned alive laden with richest and countless harrowing tales durnam used his new fortune to demolish the remnants of hallister's tower and built an inn over the well he had used to descend into undermount calling it the yawning portal durnin owns and operates the end to this day serving patrons and inviting the brave and foolish alike to test their medal in the dungeon of the mad mage whether the allure of treasure or the strong urge to discover the dungeon's forbidden secrets you find yourself at the yawning portal requesting to descend into the dungeon durnam who runs the yen charges you a mere one gold piece for your descent into the void after paying the man you climb down into the well in the middle of the end and descend into the dungeon of the mad mage level 1 dungeon level you descend into the first level of the dungeon and find a gang of neutral evil human bandits calling themselves the undertakers that prey on gullible adventurers along with them are 9 bug bears that represent the xanathar guild one of the most powerful criminal networks in the sword coast the bandits are failed actors and singers who use disguise kits to appear as vampires these disguises are elaborate and convincing but you can see through their ruse the leaders of the gang aktaral kronak and harya velashtar were lovers once but their relationship soured recently they're fed up with each other and each is plotting to eliminate the other and take control of the gang barya is likely the winner of this conflict because she recently acquired a flesh goal that wandered up from the second level of the dungeon struck by haria's resemblance to his creator the golem has been pressed into service the undertakers demand a toll of 10 gold pieces for safe passage through this level of the dungeon you deny their request and the bandits ready themselves for battle you eliminate each bandit one by one and clear the area of the extorting bandits additionally you eliminate the bugbears and outposts left from the zainatar guild defeating the undertakers means that the future parties of adventurers can explore this level of the dungeon without paying tolls for safe passage the gang's removal however has also allowed bug bears goblins wear rats and other xanathar guild operatives to set up new watch posts and abandons former hideouts destroying the xanathar guild outpost makes this level much safer place for a while but also spells the end of the force and kept other predatory monsters in check such creatures begin to expand their territory occasionally bumping up against one another with predictably bloody results one thing that never changes is the steady influx of new blood from the awning portal through your carnage of the first level you encounter halith the revenant who was once a half elf stuck in a pit he requests your aid he tells you that he once belonged to an adventuring party called the fine fellows of daggerford when the half elf accused his adventuring companions of withholding treasure from him the other members of the fine fellows of daggerford beat halith to death and threw his body into the pit halleth awoke the next day as revenant compelled to find and kill the three who murdered him unfortunately for him he is unable to climb out of the pit without assistance and has been pacing down there for days you pull him up and halleth points to a secret door in the south wall and offers to join you until he locates his friends together the two of you make your way into the second level level 2 arcane chambers descending into the second level of the dungeon you find yourself in the arcane chambers a tribe of goblins has claimed an old throne room and turned it into a bazaar the xanathar guild wants to shut down the market before it attracts too many surface dwellers while the goblins fight to keep it open admission into the goblin bazaar is free but non-goblinoids are closely watched the goblin boss yek recently found a magic circlet that transformed him into a human after his initial surprise passed yek warmed to the transformation after all it made him taller the other goblins quietly resent taking orders from a human would like to see yek return to normal after learning of the goblin's resentment to their human leader you identify the circling and remove it from yek earning the favor of the goblins in addition to the goblins you find more members of the xanathar guild the xanathar guild aims to secure this level plunder it thoroughly and return valuable items to skullport to be sold thus boosting the town's sagging economy there are two xanathar guild watch posts on this level each one has a leader a drown named shun spider-eyes sheriff commands the northern watch post a human berserker named nadia the unbent leads the southern watch post werat recently stole a stone key from the southern outpost shun believes that the key unlocks something important wants to reclaim it he intends to capture a wear rat and ransom it for the safe return of the ki unknown to him a drow mage in league with the centaurum has set up a hidden base on this level the drow named rizzarel has eight where rats in his employ the xanathar guild is aware of the wear rats but not their drow master rizzarel has the stone key that the werat stole from the zenatar guild he thinks it might unlock a vault hidden somewhere on this level the drow offers to give up this key to you in exchange for the destruction of the xanathar guild outpost on this level you agree to his task proceed to each outpost defeating the design with our guild members that reside there along the way you encounter the treacherous party members of halith exacting his revenge the refnet thanks you for your aid and passes onto the afterlife the rest of the dungeon is infested with sentient magical experiments and leftovers from the days when hallister's apprentices use this level as a laboratory while horrifying to say the least most are avoidable and traverse through them with relative ease you make your way past the creatures of this level and climb down a set of stairs to the third level level 3 sargoth level you hear the sound of flowing water and smell the stench of sea water permeating the air along with the stench you find the subterranean town of strom colder it lies divided in chunks by ancient cave-ins that drove away its original inhabitants this level of undermountain is also connected to the subterranean settlement of skullport by way of tunnels as well as the river sargoth itself since then many factions have fought over this outpost currently the drow of house avrandar and the goblinoids of the legion of azeroth are teetering on the brink of war that hollister and the xanathar guild both seek to instigate a drought priestess of loath named teresa avrandar and her retinue have assumed control of a section of strong calder and converted a temple once dedicated to dumathion into a hatchery for giant spiders under taurus command the draft begun secret experiments using humanoids as incubators for the giant spider eggs eager to expunge the drought occupying his dungeon hallister has summoned a coven of sea hags from the frigid waters of the river sargoth the hags have gathered followers that opposed the drow including grimlocks and troglodytes in regards to azeroth he was the son of a hobgoblin warlord and born blind such a curse would ordinarily have spelled his doom in hobgoblin society but asrock's mother was a sorcerer and she refused to allow her son's misfortune to dictate his destiny she crafted a dagger of blind sight which young asrock used to defend himself and perceive his surroundings the dagger allowed asrock to become the powerful soldier and leader he was fated to be and he was quickly promoted up through the ranks until none stood above him other goblinoids believed he was blessed by maglubiyet the great god of war asrock wisely hid the true source of his god side to perpetuate the myth age granted asrock wisdom and the desire to carve out a domain of his own he led his forces to strongholder and they rid the place of grimlocks and troglodytes that dwelled there he sired in air ensuring that his legacy would last beyond his lifetime his son as rock [ __ ] chafed at his father's sedentary nature and left to wage wars on his own eventually returning to the undermount with a new name doom crown and a new purpose the legion of azeroth which has lived in strom coulter for three decades is in turmoil azeroth was recently forced to give up a portion of his domain to encroaching drow and did so with nary a fight disassent shock waves through his legion what caused this strange lack of courage in their great warlord has age finally taken its toll in reality a band of duragard thieves posing as merchants recently stole azeroth's dagger of blind site and had fled using their invisibility news of the death reached the drow house of aubrydar and spurred them to take over the eastern section of strongholder lurkana asrock's wife and strongest captain tried to cover up her husband's blindness but her efforts were undone by a mine flare acting as skullport's ambassador this mine flare secretly implanted intellect devourers and the skulls of several goblins in azeroth's court and these goblins are spreading the truth of azeroth's blindness throughout strom colder to further besmirch his reputation and demoralize his troops the hobgoblins under asrock remain loyal to him but many goblins and bugbears have fled to skullport to join the xanathar guild compounding azeroth and lurkana's woes is the likelihood the house aurindar is planning another attack to seize more territory fears of a xanathar guild offensive emerging from skullport also play in the back of asrock's mind meanwhile lurkana searches for aid in finding the duergar thieves who stole the dagger of blind sight you enter strom colder and are brought before asrock and lurkana as a manner of protocol azeroth guarantees your safety in his settlement and larkana takes you aside and offers a reward for the safe return of her husband's magic dagger she emphasizes that without the dagger the invading drow and the xanathar guild might conquer strom calder become immensely more powerful she reminds you that the legion of azeroth has never once threatened water deep but the drow or the guild might leap at the chance to do just that larkana knows that the thieves who stole the dagger are duragards of clan irony she thinks that they might be hiding in skullport you accept her quest and lurkana suggests you search sculper first and points you in the right direction she also suggests that you speak with skullport's ambassador to strom colder to see if it knows anything she cautions you not to harm the ambassador in any way so as not to harm any further relations you make a quick stop to skullport and learn that a large contingent of duragar from clan iron i resupplied in skullport and shrank ale at a local tavern called the black tanker before heading deeper into the undermount the tavern's tight-lipped durgar proprietor drew in stone dark denies everything keeping this in mind you make your way back to the undermount and note that the iron eye clan may appear later in your journey learning that the drought that resides here wish to unleash a full-scale attack on skullport eliminates some of the drows of house of rendar to prevent the disaster making your way to the entrance of the fourth level the goblinoid stationed there under the leadership of the legion of azeroth allows you passage as you continue your journey level 4 twisted caverns the growth of fungi along the cavernous walls of this level brings to you the site of a beautiful yet eerily creepy cave here you find an aboleth the kuatos and remnants of house avrandar control of this level is contested between an abylith and a tribe of kuatoa the drow of house arfendar watch this conflict intently waiting to see who comes out on top before making any push of their own elune the abylith along with his pet tools and enslaved troglodytes have taken over the lake cavern and pushed the kuato out its presence has tainted the underground river killing off fish and other river dwellers that provide sustenance to the kuatoa you learned that elune plans to take over the entire level as a step toward gaining control of undermountain and then water deep the abylith rarely leaves this watery layer and relies on its servants to capture new slaves the kuato on this level were pushed out of the lake cavern and away from their nesting caves by the abylith they have taken refuge while the kuato arch priest nullgalu creates an idol of the new god the arch priest hopes the god will come to life and destroy the ability noolga loop is using random items and the body parts of various creatures to craft the idol the kuatua don't trust drow and attack them on sight when you encounter these strange beings they request that you help bring nuka-loop's vile god to life or face the abolite in battle aiming to avoid the disaster of creating a new god you decide it would be best to just travel to the ability and eliminate it the death of the appellate allows the surviving kuatoa to reclaim their grotto having saved the strange creatures you climb onto a boat descend further into undermountain by following the flow of the river here all is not well however as the kuatoa victory is short-lived due to the drow attacking them soon after your descent these attacks continue until the kuatoa are wiped out or forced to retreat upriver after taking over the grotto the drow enslaved the troglodytes and used them to farm fungi and crystals [Music] level 5 willow wood traversing through rapids and small waterfalls he followed the river into the fifth level of the under mountain contained within this level is a forest of trees these temperate forests were magically created by hallister and the sky high above you can fool anyone into thinking they have escaped undermountain and found their way back to the surface birds insects and tree dwelling mammals live here alongside willowitz fiercer denizens the forests are real and nourished by magic and hallister repopulates them with birds insects rodents and larger mammals the main caverns have tall ceilings hidden by illusions that can't be dispelled the illusions flawlessly duplicate the sun the moon the stars and clouds though there is no wind or breeze to speak of during the day the warmth of the sun can be felt that night the temperature drops as one would expect a magic calendar stone in the area allows one to change the time of day the weather and the seasons in willowitz forest willow the archdruid of the level is the only one permitted to use the calendar stone she is a moon elf druid with eyes as green as emeralds butterflies nest in her tangled black hair and small critters gather around her feet over two hundred years ago willow fell in love with jenark a wizard in league of hallister and returned with him to the under mountain her happiness faded quickly when the dungeon proved to be a far cry from the woods she called home determined to keep willow in the under mountain hallister used several wish spells to create a magical forest for her but even this gift wasn't enough to offset the druid's language when yanark forbade her from ever returning to the surface willow grew positively despondent the relationship soured and turned violent a volley of spells on both sides resulted in yanark's death after willow's fury abated all that remained was undying grief and encroaching madness she remains in undermountain in accordance with leonard's wishes a prisoner of her own guilt undermountain is willow's home now and all memory of the surface world has faded from her mind she is distant but kind towards those who pass harmlessly through her domain but turns violent whenever her force or its peaceful denizens are threatened willow's displacer beast's companion kristen is named after our human mercenary whom the elf befriended many years ago before this relationship could blossom into a romance hallister intervened and used his magic to turn willow's new friend against her the heartbroken druid slew christened in the woods and vowed never to let another mortal touch her heart so deeply willow has conflictive feelings about hallister she is grateful to him for providing her a home and keeping willowood alive with his magic but she blames him for gennard's death she also pities him for the mad mage 2 appears to be trapped in a prison of his own making willow believes he is no longer human but an immortal entity composed of pure magic thus she has given up any hope of being rid of him in addition to willow hidden within these trees is a young green dragon named tyrolye this green dragon once a lawful evil creature experienced a change in alignment and personality when an adventure impaled it through the skull with a sentient emerald-bladed sword of sharpness named tiruli the dragon now refers to itself as tyrlai and has the longsword's neutral good alignment it sleeps atop a platform overlooking the river of deaths guarding its treasure willow once sent adventurers against the green dragon hoping to destroy the evil dragon but the dragon's change of alignment caused willow to reconsider their relationship now that the green dragon and teraly are won the archdruid considers the dragon part of willowood's ecosystem the two currently enjoy a peaceful coexistence south of willow's tower stands a large complex of ornate stone buildings and used to be the home to a cult of malar the beastlord willow allowed these evil humans to hunt in her forest but they abused the privilege so the archdruid and her green dragon ally eradicated the cultist the village stood empty for years until a congregation of goblin wherebats took residence in the caves around the buildings the werebats prefer the caves to the structures which have largely remained abandoned willow allows the warebas to feed on any stray vermin and adventurers they wisely acknowledge the archdruid as masters of the forest and leave her animals and her dragon ally alone as you explore the forest you meet willow and tell her of your journey deeper into the under mountain the friendly druid shows you the two passages one that leads down to the sixth level and another that leads into the seventh she warns you to steer clear of the wear bands and show the green dragon the respected stew heating below's words you make your way past the whereabout caves and into the tunnel level 6 lost level as you trek through the tunnels you note the strange markings on the walls that are eerily similar to the markings of an umber hulk the end of the tunnel leads you to a massive temple complex that was once dedicated to the dwarven god due methion known as the lost level until recently the lost level was physically cut off from the rest of the undermountain but when the umber hulks burning through the mountain stumbled upon it they left tunnels in their wake for treasure hunters to follow hidden inside is the tomb of malar king of the malarken dwarves that once resided in the undermount before the conquest of hallister the durgar of clan iron i led by a half duergar prospector named skella ironai have come to plunder this level of undermountain they are assisted in this effort by two cloakers from the conclave on level 5 which hoped to turn this level into a hunting ground after gaining entry through an umber hulk tunnel that leads down from level 5 the raiders managed to loot several rooms but a combination of traps and unexpected monsters has diminished their numbers and dim their enthusiasm skele is obsessed by artistry and beauty in stark contrast to the usual duragar focus on utility the duragarshi leads are content to follow her for the sake of what their raids will earn them and they care nothing for the historical value of the relics they steal and destroy scala is willing to parlay with you and stay out of your way in exchange for a chance to plunder more of the dungeon and leave in one piece her lawful nature means she will abide by the terms of any bargain while certainly a good deal to be had you remember the request to return the dagger stolen from asrock and strong colder by clan iron eye you battle with the clan and slay the duragarh taking their looted treasure along with the dagger keeping in mind to return the dagger back to azeroth once the under mountain has been explored you set forth into another set of umber hulk tunnels and into the 7th level level 7 madgod's castle the tunnel barreled by the umber hulks takes you to a system of caverns that all leads towards the large room in the center within this large room you find a miniature 112 scale fortress this castle serves as the home base of madgoth a serial killer who lures other wizards to his lair to murder them and keep their arcane focuses and spell books as trophies madgoth isn't home when you first arrive matgoth comes and goes from undermountain with the aid of a horned ring similar to one worn by hollister while he is away his homunculus watches over the castle a fairy dragon has also discovered the castle and claimed it as his lair to reach the castle you travel through caverns inhabited by a family of forgetful stone giants ten years ago hallister lured a family of stone giants to undermount and stripped them of most of their memories the giants remember who they are and can recall events that happened within the last eight hours but everything that occurred before then is lost in a haze and soon forgotten all their memories of the surface world and its inhabitants faded long ago the stone giants are irritable and self-serving but not evil they are unaware of the miniature castle and the heart of their domain because it floats in the middle of a great cavern beyond the range of their dark vision the giants are tormented by the fairy dragon that layers in madgoth's castle it emerges while invisible and uses illusion spells to close off passages create false tunnels and make temporary alterations to the giant's caves the fairy dragon's mischief has only heightened the stone giant's irritability and the giants having never seen the creature suspect that you might be responsible to earn the giants trust you must seek out the fairy dragon and put an end to it approaching the fortress you are reduced to 1 12 your normal size as you approach mad god's castle enabling you to fit better inside either by design because of some failing the shrinking magic doesn't affect all creatures the violet fairy dragon named otto was drawn here by the magic that hallister wove into these caves upon discovering madgos castle otto decided to move in fairy dragon was unaffected by the castle's shrinking magic and settled comfortably into its new home it feeds on bats and other vermin it finds in the surrounding cavern when it's bored the fairy dragon sneaks out invisibly and uses its spells to make illusionary modifications to the stone giant's caves confounding the giants for its own amusement the giants have no clue who or what is responsible for this magical mischief the fairy dragon would like to get rid of mad goss homunculus which has been a troublesome reminder of the castle's true owner otto has defeated the homunculus in physical combat more than once but it keeps coming back the dragon has concluded that the only way to get rid of the homunculus for good is to forcibly remove it from the castle and trap it somewhere else if you do this for the fairy dragon in exchange auto will allow you to use this castle for rest and relaxation provided you don't overstay your welcome or loot the joint in mad god study you find a room ravaged by that of the homunculus your arrival prompts the homunculus to begin rooting through the mess on the floor after a minute of searching it finds a torn page on which is drawn a smiling dragon with butterfly wings the homunculus shows it to you tears the page into tiny pieces throws the scrap into the air like confetti and gives you a long stare the fact that the humunculus hasn't perished suggests that madgoth is still alive but their telepathic bond has been severed indicating that two are no longer on the same plane of existence whether the separation is of mad god's choosing is unknown the lonely humongous longs to be reunited with his creator it also wants to rid mad god's castle of the fairy dragon that has invaded it whether to dispatch the fairy dragon or the homunculus the choice is yours what happens in the miniature castle has little impact on the stone giants and vice versa killing all the giants would sat in otto the fairy dragon but its goals don't change if you help the giants by dealing with the fairy dragon all is forgotten within a few hours when the giant's memories fade away whatever the outcome may be it ends with you walking past a cavern containing a petrified bacillus making it onto the eighth level [Music] level eight slither swamp having passed the strange fortress in the seventh level you are greeted with the sight of murky waters this level consists of muck filled caverns and decaying temples dedicated to evil deities of the yuan t the serpent folk lived here until they were defeated by nagas known as the sethian scourges afterward halster replaced the unt with the bullywook tribe governed by a cruel death slot overlord the sethi and scourge were three spirit nagas that fought the unt of the slither swamp eventually claiming victory only two spirit nagas remain ex-gruta and sarah cath along with their thralls in the remnant of the third spirit naga hexacali who was destroyed and transformed into a bone naga by the yuan t the spirit nagas maintain a stable of thralls and use a rod of rulership to ensure their obedience every day at dawn the nagas gather their thralls and target them again with the recharge rod and each naga has the special ability to increase the duration of the charm effect humanoid thralls that resist the rod's magic often choose to maintain the appearance of being charmed for the sake of their own survival because the nagas kill or chain up those they can't magically enslave shortly after the sethian scourges defeated their uont foes a tribe of bullywugs left by a death slot appeared in the slither swamp frustrated by this new obstacle in their dominance of the level the nagas now seek allies to slay the bullywugs in their leader a year ago hallister used this magic to transport the black tongue tribe of bollywood's along with this small army of giant frogs and giant toads from a remote marshland to this level of the under mountain he seeded them into those parts of slitherswamp once controlled by the uont the bullyworks were quick to capture and domesticate four carrion crawlers and hydra hallister also summoned a death slide named kuketh to slitherswamp the mad mage keeps the sloth's control gem in his sanctuary and forces kuketh to serve as the bullywook's king the black tongues live in fear of their new king the slot hates being under hallister's control and takes out his frustration on its subjects the mages of demacor an organization found on the ninth level have sent one of their own a human named karstas to monitor this level he is an ally to those looking to thin out any of the factions in slither swamp but a foe to anyone who tries to gain access to democore here you have the option of helping kuketh and the black tongue tribe or the sethi and scourge if you help kukuth destroy or reclaim its control gem the death slot abandons the bullywugs if all the black tongue bully wigs are defeated the temple becomes a safe place for you to rest killing the sethian allowed the black tongues to overrun the naga's cave karstus in the mages of democore might be there already though wanting to hold those caverns such gains are short-lived because the spirit naga's rejuvenation trait ensures their return in a few days regardless of the results you press on past a warded cavern and continue on to the ninth level in the under mountain level 9 demacor having traveled through jungles and swamps you've seen it all when it comes to exploring a dungeon regardless you weren't expecting to find an academy of magic at the end of the cavern dimachor is an academy of magic designed to test trap and confound its students in our caneloth in a nighthack preside over this level the arkanaloth and league with the mad mage runs the mccourt's academy of evil mages it keeps his true name secret and uses ultra self spells to appear as hallister the arcanaloth employs nykoloth and mezaloth as guards in a trade safe passage through demacor for magic items evil mages in search of arcane knowledge or hallister's tutelage come here with their followers to train and be tested worm riddle is a nighthag who has four flesh golems at her command she strikes foul bargains offering spells and secrets of magic in exchange for evil acts that allow her to claim souls the nighthag wears a mummified kitten's head around her neck as a talisman though has no magical properties it testifies to her fear of cats for worm riddle is frightened while there is feline creatures within her sight you become embroiled in academy politics and form tenuous truces with certain students while making enemies of others the loss of one or more students has little effect on the day-to-day affairs of demacor since the facility has no emotional attachments to the pupils within a 10 day the headmaster replaces dead students with new arrivals begin their orientation finding a secret door set into a wall you push it open to reveal a corridor following the corridor brings you to a stone staircase that descends onto the next level [Music] level 10 murals gauntlet descending the staircase you are greeted by a network of rooms that are a parallel shadow of their former glory having fallen into disrespect and neglect mural the mishappen one of hallister's apprentices claimed this drow built level as his private hunting grounds after the dark elves were forced to abandon it long ago despite being recruited by hallister as a bodyguard mural also studied magic under the mad mage he is no longer human having grafted his upper torsto onto the body of a giant scorpion with no hope of repelling the drought on his own and no help coming from hallister mural does his best to hold on to what he has left under the leadership of a priestess named vlonwell avrandar the drow have recently returned to reclaim the level house avrandar and its allies hope to establish a permanent stronghold here complete with a fully renovated temple dedicated to lolth the house uses mural's gauntlet as a staging ground for raids into other levels and as a base from which to launch attacks against house breth a rival drow house that has a fortress on the 12th level leading them is vlonwell of avrendar lonwelv is the mother to teresa who was encountered on the third level the priestess is a diplomat through and through although angered by your presence in her fortress she treats you cordially at first offering you food drinks shelter and safe passage in return she demands that you hunt down a slave mural who has become an unwelcome distraction if you refuse she threatens you with death eliminating mural or vlon wealth are options you can take or you may decide to avoid them all together whichever option you may choose you eventually make your way out of the facility and enter a natural cavern that descends to the 11th level level 11 troglodyte warrants the passage from the drow stronghold leads you to a wreaking cavern troglodyte inhabit this level of the undermountain their dominance is contested by drow determined to enslave them trolls twisted by halster's magic and a magically enhanced bahir intent on terrorizing all drow from house avrendar on the 10th level in house freth on the 12th level are fighting each other for control of this level all the while capturing troglodytes to use as slaves and doing their best to steer clear of the year houses operand are infrared continue to send forces to this level until their strongholds are destroyed making it past the bahir takes a bit of luck but eventually you make it through and onto the 12th level [Music] level 12 maze level having escaped the hellish landscape of the previous level it seems like the giraffes of house breath are battling more than you had expected this level is known as the maze level and is a battleground between the drought of house frath and a tribe of minotaurs the minotaurs hold sway over a maze of tunnels riddled with magical effects and traps while the drow occupied the caves around an elegant fortress called spider watch keep a staging ground for house fret's goals of conquering all of the honor mountain hostilities between the drow and the minotaurs have recently abated in the wake of devastating losses on both sides driven freth a drow archmage hopes to use this respite to his house advantage by summoning a gyristro demon that will force the minotaurs to submit to house fresh control from their dark bastion the leaders of house breth strive to keep their enemies house avrandar from conquering the eleventh level the troglodyte warrants leading the effort is iral frath a drow priestess of lolth her older brother driven works at her side iral has communed with lolth and believes that the key to securing the troglodyte warrens begins with the capture of the minotaurs on this level once the minotaurs are subservient to house breath the drow will use them to clear out and secure the warrens to this end driven is devising a ritual to summon and control a gerestro demon by passing the gristro off as baphomet the lord of minotaurs he hopes to win the minotaur's obedience but driven has recently realized that his arcane knowledge is not sufficient to allow him to perfect the ritual and he is afraid of admitting his inadequacy to his sister 23 minotaurs inhabit the southern half of the maze level they spend most of their time fighting the drow their leader is a priest of baphomet named maku a devout follower of the horned king who has tried to summon the demon lord on numerous occasions the minotaur priest believes that his rich will be successful if he can amass a large enough pile of mutilated corpses for the demon lord to feast on additionally tendra nightblade and mateen shadowdust two low-ranking members of the shadowdusk family that resides in the 22nd level of the underdark arrived at spiderwatch keep a few days ago they claimed to be emissaries from shadow dusk hold who were seeking an alliance from house breth the two diplomats have been fed and flattered by airlife breth since they arrived the drought priestess recognizes the potential benefit of an alliance although she is also trying to ascertain whether shadow dusk hold has made similar overtures to house avrandar what iral doesn't realize is that house shadow dusk has no interest in an alliance and the two emissaries have come to the maze level on a secret mission beholden to hallister the shadow dusk have been ordered to convince driven frath to accept an apprenticeship under the mad mage they have secretly informed him of hallister's intent and of hallister's offer to help him perfect the ritual that would bind a gyristra to house fret's service they now wait for driven's decision while doing everything they can to ensure that he makes the right choice sneaking past the strange politics that inhabited the current and previous floors you make your way to a hole that leads to the 13th level eerily enough the hole resembles that created by a purple worm delving in a monstrosity awaits you on the other side level 13 troy bryant's graveyard it may be due to unfortunate circumstances but your delve into the tunnel of the worm happened to coincide with the mindless travel of the bore worm a drilling machine that was modeled after purple worm the piercing sound of drilling fills your ear long before you see it but is certainly a sight to behold it is a metal plated behemoth that resembles a purple worm replacing the skin with metal sheets and mouth with a grinding drill its creator joe bryant known as the metal mage this level serves as his workshop testing ground and junkyard joe bryan himself is an infrequent visitor preferring instead to remain close to his master hallister the metal mages magical constructs populate this level among them lives a gnome named zoxclammersham as a clever rock gnome zoxis the sole survivor of his former parties failed under mountain expedition since the demise of his friends sox has managed to secure a ring that allows him to command this galadre he has put the constructs to work building a device he calls the simulacrux this device will in theory create a simulacrum of any skelator that passes through it zox's intentions are not malevolent he simply needs more skeletal in order to build things he wishes the bounty of salvage on this level has not gone unnoticed by the fire giants on the 14th level they send hobgoblin minions to steal scrap metal which the giants are using to build a great construct of their own the hobgoblins raid in small bands using trained rust monsters to distract sox's constructs these raiders are naturally violent but can be parlayed with the hop goblins recently figured out how xoxox controls the skelator and now they aim to kill the gnome and take his control ring so far sox has managed to elude all the hobgoblins sent to murder him you may detour from the tunnels and interact with zox and the hobgoblins or collect some scrap metal to claim as your own in the end all roads lead back to the worm tunnels in which you follow down into the 14th level level 14 arcturia doom the worm tunnel deposits you into a dungeon housing a truly evil being the lich arcturia who dwells on the lowest level of the undermount is one of houston's most accomplished apprentices arguably the most powerful of the seven and a master of transmutation magic arcturia doom is her personal retreat doom being archaic term for a lord's domain hidden on this level is arcturious phylactery arcturia doom has been taken over by fire giants in the service of hallister amberosa a fire giant has come to undermount with six of her kin on a mission to raise fire giants to the top of the giant ordning dethroning the mighty storm giants amberosa hopes to obtain a lost ruin of power created by the giants more than forty thousand years ago she believes dorr stole the rune from the giants and hid it under mount waterdeep hallister found the ruin and hid it on the 23rd level but he has agreed to part with it if the fire giants use their exceptional metal forging abilities to build a giant construct for him the fire giants are accompanied by a large force of hobgoblins the force of hobgoblins came to under mountain along with amberosa and her fire giants this force is commanded by a hobgoblin warlord named doom crown who's the son of warlord azeroth found on the third level doom crown wants fire giants to ascend to the top of the giant ordning envisioning their brutal tyranny sweeping across faerun he expects to play an important role in amborosa's conquest and he dreams of ruling what remains of the high forest once the elves and other forest denizens are purged and the trees are reduced to ash and spines since arriving in arcturia doom however doom crown has developed strange habits he spends more and more time locked away in his quarters chasing some strange new obsession his followers remain loyal but they worry about the mental state of their warlord you go through the level defeating amberosa and obtaining arturia's phylactery through a bit of investigation and some personal knowledge you learned that the object can only be destroyed after being digested in the stomach of a mimic for 30 days you take it with you and destroy the phylactery whenever you have a chance destroying this phylactery leaves arturia with no means to rejuvenate once her physical form is destroyed additionally defeating amberosa and her fire giants stall the progress on hallister's creation but only until hallister finds new metalsmiths to continue the work opening a door in the dungeon it leads you to a staircase that descends hundreds of feet to the 15th level [Music] level 15 obstacle course upon entering the 15th level of the under mountain you find a magical mouth next to some minecarts that speak to you welcome to the obstacle course place all weapons and magic items in the carts for safe keeping you won't need them hurry time is running out this is the voice of hallister and you've just entered his obstacle course as a visitor to this level you must contend with mechanical traps left behind by the milarkin dwarves magical traps crafted by the mad mage and an undead beholder named netherskull many years ago a beholder floated up from the underdark and infiltrated undermountain after carving out a layer for itself the beholder dreamed itself into undeath becoming a death tyrant called netherskull when hallister and netherschool met in battle the wizard emerged triumphant but he couldn't bring himself to destroy such a formidable dungeon guardian instead hallister agreed to let another skull remain the undisputed lord of this level on the condition that it permits halster to tinker with and maintain the level's traps as well as add a magical mean-spirited announcer that taunts visitors as they blunder from one room to another this magical voice narrates things similar to that of a sports commentator spouting things such as swing in a miss and ouch that'll leave a mark during your run of the obstacle course you also encounter trouble from the elemental planes of earth and fire and a band of gifts or eye on a special mission several lava children brought to undermountain by halster's apprentice troy bryant have migrated from the 13th level to the obstacle course and have taken residence around a lava-filled chasm in the heart of the level joining the magma methods that dwell there netherschool terrorizes the lava children magma methods from time to time but not enough to force them to leave the warmth of the chasm the evil methods trick or goad the lava children into attacking all other creatures that blunder into their territory four gifts arise earths have taken refuge in the obstacle course they use their psychic abilities and natural stealth to hide from houster's magical gaze and the death tyrant's watchful eyes the gifts of their eye are aware that the githyanki have conquered the crystal labyrinth on the 16th level and are waging war against a mind player colony on the 17th level the gethserai wait patiently to see the outcome of the conflict between the two but stand ready to assist should the githyanki need help the leader of the github sarai in this level irlakka is a member of the shasta code a faction of renegade gift yankee and gitzerai who seek to reunify the gith race by helping the githyanki defeat a common foe erlaka hopes to demonstrate the merits of a single unified geth race not only to the evil gethyanki but also to younger gitzerai's earths who follow him irlaka is concerned because his most headstrong pupil a gitzerai named ezria has disappeared he fears that ezria was captured by the githyanki in the crystal labyrinth while trying to find weak spots in their defenses while a bit tough the obstacle course poses no match for you and you clear the level vanquishing those who stand in your way although most of the obstacle course's remaining inhabitants have no intention of leaving anytime soon the gifts arise stay only as long as they must to reunite with their missing comrade and ensure the destruction of the mind flare colony walking past the statue of halister you descend down a sloping tunnel that leads to the 16th level level 16 crystal labyrinth a crystal golem is what greets you at the end of the tunnel in the entrance of the 16th level the crystal labyrinth it protects the githyanki that reside here from those who would threaten them the githyanki recently turned the crystal labyrinth into an outpost of their interplanetary empire it houses a gate to star dog a hollowed-out asteroid in orbit around the planetorile one of many that formed the asteroid cluster known as the tears of sulphine an adult red dragon named ash tiranthor defends starduck as well the githyanki tracking a splinter colony of mineflares to undermount seized this level and turned what was once a crystalline maze into a fortress from here they launch attacks against the mind flares on the 17th level the gith yankee also transforms starduck into a crochet a fortress dedicated to raising and training young warriors because creatures do not age on the astral plane the githyanki must bring their offspring to the material plane to mature unfamiliar with the asteroid's actual name the githyanki referred to starduck as crochet killer the githyanki are led by alkaya a knight who is cruel to her trainees and soldiers al-qayya recently acquired a manual of gainful exercise in a tomb of clear thought and she has promised to award both items to her most accomplished soldier in truth she plans to read these tomes to gain their benefits herself when uses the promise of this reward to trek her troops into running themselves ragged alkaya's second in command uraion is tired of the abuse and plots against her whether you decide to engage the alien race and infiltrate their asteroid base or proceed on your way past them you end your journey of the 16th level by slipping down some tunnels located beyond two crystal golems level 17 c deeps the natural tunnel you traverse through levels out before splitting into several passages navigating these tunnels you occasionally come across the body as a flumps slain by the githyanki and floor above something surely strange in these parts of the dungeon deep in the underdark a githyanki vanguard force attacked a large colony of mind flares controlled by an elder brain fearing the colony's destruction the elder brain instructed its most loyal vassal an olitherid called extremiton to establish a splintered colony somewhere else safe from the githyanki's incursions extremiton made its way to undermount with a group of mind players laid claim to the 17th level of the dungeon began fortifying it against attacks from the githyanki and others the dungeons proximity to waterdeep guaranteed the mind flares and endless supply of brains to feed on while undermountain's existing defenses offered an unmatched level of security extremiton has built an enormous dynamo that channels the energy of an underground river to power a series of interconnected metal capsules called cypods the illithids under extremiton's command have kidnapped humanoids and put them to sleep in these capsules which link their dreaming minds to the olathari's dizzying intellect these captives believe they're in water deep but the city they see and experience around them is a fabrication within this alternate reality of water deep extremiton appears as any character it wants its favorite role is to play that of durnum the gruff tight-lipped proprietor of the yawning portal through methods unknown to the illithids the gift yankee vanguard force tracked the survivors of their attack on the colony to undermountain having recently secured the nearby 16th level the githyanki now wage war against the mind flares and sea deeps uncertainty about its own future has forced extremiton to hold off on transforming into an elder brain instead it is focused on defending the colony and destroying the gift yankee neighbors with only a dozen mind flares remaining under its rule extremiton has resorted to breeding a neothelia and plans to set it loose in the crystal labyrinth to finally wipe out the githyanki force killing extremiton would deprive the surviving elephants of their leader forcing them to disappear into other corners of undermountain return back to the underdark if the githyanki are wiped out an extremiton is allowed to live it eventually turns itself into an elder brain which attracts more elephants to the colony whichever path occurs you eventually descend another sloped tunnel that is guarded by two duragards level 18 van rack doom exiting the tunnel from the 17th level you encounter a tall corridor of smooth-worked stone in the beginning of the 18th level van rack doom the level is named after van rack moonstar a water deviant noble who turned to the worship of shar he descended into undermountain and became a death knight to grasp what's happening on this level and why one needs to know the fate that befell lord moonstar adherents of shar have been active in the shadow of mount waterdeep ever since a disastrous expedition to the black jungles by lord vanrock moonstar a charismatic outgoing swashbuckler vanrack was but a pale shadow of his former self when he returned a few 10 days later his father lord and varun moonstar died of a strange wasting disease that could not be cured by healing magic upon assuming leadership of house moonstar vanrack publicly broke with the temple of saloon the goddess of the moon which he blamed for his father's untimely death consumed with bitterness the dark ranger as vanrack came to be known secretly embraced saloon's sister shar after some years house moonstar was an open schism family members who still venerate a saloon aligned themselves with lord vanrak's sister lady alitheen meanwhile lord vanrack and his followers extended their dark influence over much of the city's harbor with the aid of a small army of mercenaries bolstered by followers of shar lady alethien appeared in open court and asked the lords of waterdeep to strip her brother of his title and banish him from the city for his multiple crimes such as slavery and murder the lords ordered the immediate capture of the dark ranger but by the time the city watch had reached the gates of this villa vanrak and his followers had already fled through a secret portal into undermountain he and his followers remained there until they conquered the level of undermountain that came to be known as van rack doom operating from his new base vanrak extended his influence throughout much of undermountain and even periodically dispatched elite strike teams to battle followers of saloon in the city above he achieved his most dramatic success when his followers infiltrated the high house of stars through its cellar slaughtered most of the inhabitants before they could raise an alarm engulfed the temple in black fire and burned it to the ground the invaders also acquired enough treasure from the temple vault to fund lord vanrade's personal quest for immortality within a few years the dark ranger has transformed himself into a death knight the lords of waterdeep hired ways of adventures to descend into undermountain to bring vanrak and his followers to justice although none of these adventures succeeded they winnowed down in vanorak's army to the point where he could no longer threaten the city hallister compounded vanrak's woes by urging other utter mountain dwellers to invade vain rapturing from time to time in a desperate move the few remaining priests of shah perform rituals to harness the despair of vanrack's shadow dragon mount abraxakar and use him to transport van rackdoom into the shadowfell in the end hallister's magical hold over undermountain proved too strong to overcome yet a small section of van rack doom crossed over into the plane of shadow and became its sconce there confronted by failure vanrak came to believe that shah had deceived him and had orchestrated his downfall solely to spite her nemesis saloon in the following years he renounced his faith in char and begs saloon's forgiveness for the destruction of her temple and its followers in a desperate act of redemption the death knight destroyed his undead form using a sun blade a vampire cleric of shar named karista delvingstone has ruled van rack doom ever since carista delvingstone grew up in the streets of waterdeep and is no stranger to hardship hoping to make a better life for herself she became an adventurer and sought fame and fortune in the undermountain caresta met her end in the layer of a vampire and became a vampire spawn under his command after vanrack destroyed the vampire and conquered his lair he took caresta under his wing consumed by darkness and loss kresta was drawn to shah like a moth to a flame and rose to become a vampire cleric of the evil god she now leads shar's debase cult in van rack doom and intends to send the group on a mission to destroy the spires of the morning the temple of lathander and waterdeep she also has her sights set on destroying waterdeep's temple of saloon whom she blames for the destruction of van rack moonstar the history of this level is rich but to you it's just another floor to traverse through you sneak past shadow creatures vampires and agents of charista's army to a tunnel that seems centuries old traveling down the air moistens as humidity begins to build level 19 cavern of ooze you're tracked down into the 19th level brings you to the cavern of ooze where you find a cavernous ecosystem filled with primordial ooze here you find a spell jamming vessel and his crew followers of an evil god of oozes and two genies competing among one another a down and a married lived here having struck bargains of hallister to rid of the lich as it that resided in the 20th level the genies compete with one another whichever one obtains the lich's phylactery wins its freedom damning the other to spend the remainder of its existence in undermount by the rules of hallister's game the genies can use adventurers to get the job done but they can't cause bodily harm to one another either directly or indirectly a disgruntled mud method named erm has been forced to act as the genies go between additionally the mad mage captured a space-faring pirate ship called the scavenger stole the magic device that propels it and left the derelict vessel and its crew to rot in the caverns of ooze the ship's mind flare captain was forced to eat the brains of several shipmates to survive the remainder of the crew fled into the caverns having taken refuge in the oozefield caverns around the ship now the illithid waits for new humanoid brains to deliver themselves into its waiting tentacles the caverns of ooze have at various times served as a temple and sanctuary for worshipers of gennader the evil god of oozes slimes and other subterrarian horrors hallister rewards these mad zealots by transforming them into oozes that retain most of their memories and intelligence these servants of gennader believe that god himself has blessed them the mad mage does nothing to discourage this impression followers of gennader whom housed their alerts to under mountain invariably visit a floating orb that weeps femorial ooze thor is thought to be part of ganatar himself his worshippers sometimes refer to the object as the weeping eye in truth alistar found the oozing orb and brought it here solely to flood the caverns and mislead gennader's vile devotees your time here is brief as you make it past the abominations that dwell here and proceed onwards to the layer of the lich that resides in the 20th level of the undermountain [Music] level 20 runestone caverns throughout your journey of undermountain you've encountered many that have been under the control of hallister some more willing than others your arrival into the 20th level brings you to the runestone caverns here of which houses the lich that wishes to usurp the mad mage the runestone is a large magic crystal created by hallister black cloak that is embedded in the top of a huge hollowed-out stalagmite that rises from the center of this level's main cavern this spire serves as the layer of a lich named azit who has long been hallister's enemy as it has become obsessed with destroying hallister and usurping his control over undermountain as his mania endures for power grows the lich becomes more like hallister with each passing day in an effort to destroy as it hallister created a legion of stone golems called stone cloaks modeled after himself placing a fragment of the runestone in each one to imbue it with more intelligence and personality when azad learned what hallister was up to the lich placed wards on the stalagmite tower to prevent construct from assailing it this countermove prompted halster to abandon his golems and stop making new ones having witnessed the mayhem that halster has created within this dungeon it may be wise to end esset before he replaces the mad mage you may decide to destroy the lich especially if you made a deal with the genies on the 19th level but doing so will allow the mad mage to place an apprentice of his here to rule over this level perhaps it'd be wise to allow the lich to continue his feud against hallister either way you carry on and proceed down another set of tunnels into the 21st level [Music] level 21 terminus level the tunnel that you follow dumps you into the 21st level a layer filled with mine carts rails and failed experiments of the mad mage also known as the deep mines this level of the undermount originally revealed its riches to dwarves and later to warmongering duragar the grey dwarves have long controlled the mines first depleting them of mithril then excavating the iron to supply their forges now hallister's whims and depraved planar influence have surpassed the duragar as the most dangerous inhabitants of the level the 21st level is where hallister dumps his failed monster experiments some time ago a planetary named fosreon slew most of these blasts from his horrors but succumb to his own bloodlust fasrian is a planetary formerly in the service of torm god of courage and self-sacrifice the planetary was summoned to undermount months ago by an adventure and cleric sickened by the foulness it beheld fawzerian sought to cleanse the terminus level of corruption but the magic suffusing houster's abominations corrupted the planetary's divine seal the more horrors it destroyed the more joy fasrian took in their slaughter fosrean's fall from grace was swift culminating in the murder of the clerics and her companions the planetary now passes judgment on all who stands before it those who lack the willingness to sacrifice themselves for the greater end are found guilty and executed a moat of goodness still burns within the planetary if you can make fawzerine realize that it has become what is sought to destroy the planetary will end itself and with its self-sacrifice earned torn's forgiveness in addition to the planetary in the failed experiments you meet an unlikely ally a durgar prince named valtiger steel shadow traveled to undermountain to plunder its mind and used the wealth to buy his way back into the court of his older brother king horger steel shadow the deep king of grackles doug voltiger's problems began years ago when he led a hunting expedition into a region of the underdark patrolled by the drow houses of menzo bronson voltiger was captured by drow scouts and horgur was forced to pay a king's ransom in coins and slaves to free him hungry for vengeance valtiger and his followers began attacking drow outposts hoping to fament war between grackle stug and menso bronzin when drow ambassadors confronted horger with proof of valtiger's plot horger banished valtegar and his co-conspirators they would henceforth be known as colossa brock outcasts no longer welcome in crackle stug after long holding the deep mines baltigar and his duargar followers were forced back into the underdark by the planetary sudden arrival and subsequent bloody crusade weeks after retreating they returned to discover that the mines were much changed and even deadlier than before the planetary slaughtered a number of valtaker's followers until the prince stood before the planetary alone empty-handed and daring the angel to kill him voltegar's gesture of self-sacrifice moved fasrian who judged him worthy of remaining alive valtagar now holds a tenuous position as lord of the minds one of the fallen angels advisors despite now being vassals of fosreian all the doergar on this level remain loyal to their prince and follow valtegar's orders without question voltegar intends to overthrow fawzrian buy off the yugolos and seize control of the terminus level towards that end he is quick to forge alliances with you if you are also interested in bringing about the planetary's downfall agreeing to ally with the duergar you rid the level of the planetary and end its overly cruel judgement vasarina's death enables the duraguard to regain control of the terminus level valtigar has no immediate plans other than to fortify the level and prepare for his eventual return to grackle stug the yugolofs that remain make the best of a bad situation regardless of the outcome the mad mage continues to use the terminus level as a dumping ground for his failed monster experiments you proceed through a secret door that is guarded by an ultraloft and descend the stairs that lead to the 22nd level 22 shadow dusk hold the staircase that descends from the 21st level opens up to a grand foyer belonging to the home of a once noble family the shadow dusk the shadow dust family like many other water deviant noble lineages made its fortune in trading three sisters named aaron draya malween and jarlethra shadowdusk became famous for sponsoring and then leading adventuring expeditions into undermountain one of the items they recovered from the dungeon was a tablet of black crystal that allowed contact with entities of the far realm their brother zirian came to possess the tablet and used it to contact other worldly beings in an attempt to destroy his family's business rivals and political enemies this contact drove zirion mad and it didn't take long for the madness to spread to the other members of the shadow dust family and come into public view as the family's behavior grew more bizarre local broadsheets circulated rumors that the shadow dusk had been replaced by aberrant horrors and human guys their ancestral villa shadow dusk hold was burned to the ground years ago the water deviant authorities who investigated the blaze never made their findings public but the commonly held belief is that the city's watchful order of magist and protectors was responsible zirion escaped and fled to his sister's readout in the depths of the undermountain from there he used sending spells to contact shadow dust family members living abroad and brought them to live with him in a twisted underground version of shadow dust hold among those who answered the call was margaret's shadowdusk a distant cousin whom zirion would later marry in the end zirion and margaret stepped through a gateway into the far realm and were never seen again in their absence the torch of leadership passed azirian's niece and nephew desmere and zalter the twin children of his late sister yarlethera these former paladins of torm abandoned their faith long ago becoming death knights over the years hallister black cloak has kept his eye on the shadow dusk and their plots even as he allows the family free reign in their corner of his domain the mad mage has decided that these are the kind of nobles that need to be making decisions and wielding power in waterdeep so that he can secretly rule the city using them as puppets as such he encourages the shadow dust to consolidate power in preparation for a triumphant and bloody return to water deep after which hallister will seize power as the city's shadow lord the shadow dust family motto used to be no secrets without truth after the family's fall its motto changed to we do not fear the darkness the family's crest was a lit torch with three embers rising from the flame set against a purple background in the wake of the family's descent into under mountain and madness this crest had literally turned upside down so that the torch flame points downward your journey through this level brings to face to face with the current leader of the shadow dust hold zaltar and desmere deeming them too great of a threat to live you battle through their minions and eventually slay the two along with their family while certainly a noble cause it may be for naught when zalter and desmer are destroyed they eventually reform as death knights their ambition and hatred burn too fiercely for them to be able to give up their dreams of conquest and they are too corrupted by the far realm to be redeemed when they return to find the rest of their family destroyed the death knights expand their hatred to include you out of desperation the twins try to forge alliances with the other denizens of undermount such as the draw of house avendar or house fred in the mind flares of sea deeps or the cult of shar and van rack doom if no such allies remain desmere and zathar looked deep into the underdark in the far realm drawing forth aberrant horrors by offering them promises of a new life in the undermountain regardless of the outcomes that unfold you make your way to the last passage into the undermountain no longer will you descend any tunnels for the last path into the furthest depths of the undermount is an arch gate beckoning a sacrifice of a magical item placing any magical item that you found in the dungeon activates the gate allowing you to step through onto the 23rd and final level of the undermountain [Music] level 23 mad wizards layer stepping through the arch gate you finally made it into the mad wizard slayer the final level of the undermountain here you find hallister along with the mad mages two apprentices arcturia and trobriand having made it this far hallister is equal parts impressed and curious he is ready to grant you an audience having kept an eye on your progress true to the nature that earned him the moniker mad mage halister's demeanor towards you changes on a whim he alternates between seeming furious baffled annoyed amused or simply bored if you and your actions support halster's current goals the mad mage is not necessarily hostile the apprentices octuria intro brian on the other hand may be incredibly hostile depending on your actions in the undermountain arcturia is a lich and a master of transmutation magic she has altered her form dramatically over the years now appearing more alive than undead gossamer wings sprout from her shoulders and bone spurs just from her forearms and elbows having destroyed her full actor in the 14th level arcturia attacks you on sight while a difficult battle her defeat means she will no longer reanimate with the loss of her phylactery the other apprentice trobrian the metal mage specializes in the creation of magical constructs having passed through the upper levels you've certainly encountered some of his creations fed up with the frailty of flesh to brine has transferred his spirit into the body of a specially prepared iron golem this merging of spirit and metal has done nothing to improve his sanity however traversing the mad mage's layer proves to be a difficult feat but it does not stop you from entering houston's tower your exploration of that tower takes you to a door that emanates a sinister aura a warning in your mind shouts the mad mage waits for you beyond the next door prepare yourselves opening the door you are greeted by the throne room of palestine black cloak it doesn't take long before a battle commences callister summons nakara the daughter of the frost maiden oral to fight you swords and spells are exchanged and a long-fought battle is had before the dust fades and you stand victorious hallister congratulates you on the final test before he reveals himself sitting on the throne one final battle commences between you and hallister in the end the mad mage falls hopefully never to return with hallister killed the demi plane around his tower collapses without warning as the tower is torn asunder its content are blasted into the far corners of the astral plane you barely manage to make it out of the tower and eventually out of the undermount and back to the awning portal the patrons of the yawning portal hail you as a hero but it doesn't take too long for a new evil to claim the undermountain [Music]
