New sewer-people popping in.
Lots of door checking. Mostly empty rooms apart from a vampire that was quickly killed.In one room, about to grab a golden horn from the wall, Lyria had a vision of a large room with pillars and 6 adventurers tied to them. Lyria was a dragon with necrotic breath getting to kill them in the form of the dragon Umraxal. A voice was telling them to kill the adventurers.
Corridor to the south east: Two obsidian statues, faceless women, holding two silver threads between them. Conjuration magic.
Necromantic shadow curtains cover the wall between them.
Cael steps through the curtain, then Lyria. Double door says, “The shadow is the key”. The rest steps through. The rod we found last time fits the indentation on the floor.
Light shadow of the key on the door.
Piles of skulls and bones, shadowy, grey and miserable. World goes sepia.
Long corridor to the south.
Umbraxal’s lair.
welcome to umbraxakar's lair,

Tiziano found the dining room and had a vision of Vanrak, Tiziano was a dragon.
Several visions, all from the dragon’s view.
While the group are discussing visions in the corridor Deyrus checks another door and finds three vampire spawn in a room to the south. A double door leads to Gaston, a yeti and more enemies.
Raven senses the dragon further south. Through some corridors and secret doors, finding an amethyst sarcophagus. After much effort stored in Cael’s portable hole.

Heroe’s Feast still active

Opening doors to the dragon. Fight. Tiziano ran out of strength. Cael starts convincing. The oth-ers except Lyria helps. Glyster saved. Moonstar family.

Unwilling to give up hoard, but will reward.

Telling the story of Vanrak. The Lords of Waterdeep ordered him arrested and he fled to Un-dermountain. Glyster tried to go after and stop him. Vanrak and the cultists were deperate and convinced Glyster to be part of a ritual to transform Vanrakdoom to the shadowfell. Vanrak failed and destroyed himself by blade.
Giving Midnight Tears
Midnight Tears (Ingested). A creature that ingests this poison suffers no effect until the stroke of midnight. If the poison has not been neutralized before then, the creature must succeed on a DC 17 Constitution saving throw, taking 31 (9d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Glyster gives us a Pendant to Shar, valuable. Lots of coins. Electrum and silver. Bah.
Reward from house Moonstar:
In exchange for their help, Helion promises the friendship of House Moonstar, which comes with tangible benefits.

Short rest.
Glyster reluctantly let us see the hoard room. Tiziano running around opening doors and check-ing all corridors.

Descending to next floor 19. Oozy feeling. Effluvium. Eyes carved on the walls and ceiling follow us. Lyria and Cael go invisible.
Further in is a band of pirate orcs around a fireplace. Leader lady talks to us in orc. They start lobbing sylinders at us. We fight back.

There’s a broken pirate ship to the south in a big cavern. There is no treasure and it falls on top of Tiziano and Lyria. Deyrus and Bobbert strips the orcs of plate mail and burns the bodies.
Cael leads way through three water curtains before we find a huge singing fish. He asks to be called “mylord”.
Ichthyglug is a type of genie. Cael thinks Maruk?
He promises riches for a quest. Destroy a lich Ezzact and get his phylactery. Head down a floor. He needs the phylactery to leave this place.
Out of cave, stick to the left.
Going north and then left, there is more ooze and a tentacled ship. We climb it and get attacked by ballistaorcs.
Lyria: Remember to start with Mass Cure next time!

Save the Dragon
Prerequisite: Complete the “Throne of the Coronal” or the “Eye of the Spider” quest
Word reaches Lady Wylynd Moonstar, matriarch of the Moonstar noble family of Waterdeep, that a party of adventurers has had some success in Undermountain of late. She learns all she can about these adventurers before sending her grand-nephew, a well-mannered half-drow named Helion Moonstar, to meet with them. Helion is Wylynd’s heir apparent, and this mission is as much a test for him as it is for the adventurers.
Lady Wylynd is well over a hundred years old and senile, but she has never forgotten the dark blemish on her family’s honor left by Vanrak Moonstar, who lorded over House Moonstar long ago. Vanrak and his small army of Shar worshipers fled into Undermountain to escape punish-ment for their many crimes in the city. It’s Lady Wylynd’s recollection that a longtime ally of the Moonstar family, a bronze dragon named Glyster, was asked or told to find Vanrak and bring him back to Waterdeep to face justice. The dragon found Vanrak but could not wrest him from the depths of Undermountain. Instead, the dragon became corrupted by Shar’s magic. In this evil form, the dragon fought by Vanrak’s side for years, even serving as his mount from time to time.

Lady Wylynd believes it’s her family’s responsibility to free the dragon from Shar’s evil grasp one way or another. She asks Helion to meet with the adventurers and convince them to find the shadow dragon in Vanrakdoom one of the deeper levels of Undermountain, and break Shar’s hold over him. Failing that, they should put the dragon out of his misery. In exchange for their help, Helion promises the friendship of House Moonstar, which comes with tangible bene-fits:
House Moonstar magic item trading (downtime activity). Housemoonstar offers any tier appro-priate items for trade (player choice) this downtime activity can only be done once per charac-ter.

Clan Ironeye 6th floor.
Dragon 5th floor.
Room, tapestry, dwarven kingdom mountain, ancient.
We’re in the temple of Dumathoin. Looking for tomb of King Malair.
This floor was once a dwarven kingdom. King Malair was the leader.
After a long rest, venturing west out of the main hall. Around a couple of corners there’s an Umberhulk, who’s ruined the bottle storage.
Northwest corner guarded by two metal dwarf statues. Shrine of four deities. The statues represent the dwarven deities Moradin (god of creation), Berronar Truesilver (god of hearth and home), Clangeddin Silverbeard (god of battle), and Marthammor Duin (god of exploration). Tapered brass sylinder on the floor. Part of an instrument? Trumpet piece? Not magical.
Wide corridor south.

Fresco of dwarves throwing gems into a xorn’s mouth. Real gems in the wall, pulled out.
Wall image of a rust monster. Erik touched a rusty spike, stepped through the gate and got restrained for 24h? Small room with alchoves. Ninlar used scroll to help Eric. Eric running back, it seems we are on floor 2 with the goblin market.
Returning through gate, Lyria gets the ability to cast augury 3x without comps or fails.
South door, empty room. Doors in all directions. West door. Furniture removed. Glowing pillars. Corridor north, crushed door, pit. Across the pit, a Xorn. It says something in Terran, Eric attacks with no warning.
Xorn runs, party chasing. Eric and Ninlar killed it. Moving back south after valuables, back past portal and room with doors. Opening south door, new portal. Carved with a stylized image of a mountain with a sun above it. Struggling to open the portal.
Moving on west and south, room with pillars. Stone finds secret doors to the south. Wall opens. Panels. Sarcophagus opens as we enter. Battle axes breaks free from walls and attacks. Lyria kills most with an Ice storm. Valuable crystal panels.
Discussion about what to do, leave the panels and get the duergar to pay for them. Someone coming towards us, invisible. Halaster, casting fireball at everyone except Eric. Eric fighting Umberhulk around the corner.
Halaster turned out to be a grey thing. Two umberhulks? Ruined wall. Large room, doorway with image of a hand pouring ale from a flagon on the south.
Lyria feels treasure to the south west. No secret doors. Back to the axe tomb room. Stone finds a secret door. Lyria finds a pit trap. Stone eventually finds another secret door. Large chamber with four statues of the four dwarven deities.
Lyria hears a voice in her mind promising to aid in revealing the true treasure if the knocks over the statue to the north west. Tiziano helps, devil comes out of the statue and thanks Lyria.
Malair’s tomb. Tiziano finds no traps, opens the sarcophagi. Writing etched in silver. Adamantine warpick, shield of dumathoin (sentinel shield). Stone picks up and throws the shield to Lyria. Eric tries to stop them. Ninlar carries off Eric. Demons have crushed other statues and multiplied, cornering the party to be devoured in a month or so.

Rough tunnel, more chanting to the north. Lots of cultists blocking door for ritual.
More cultists who turn into shadows and suck the strength out of barbarians.
Going back south. More doors in all directions. Double doors to south, finding mithril chain. Erik puts it on and is attacked by more ghosts.
Cael cast prayer of healing.
Scintilmorn and its original purpose: to destroy vampires and other creatures of the night.

New sewer-people popping in.
Lots of door checking. Mostly empty rooms apart from a vampire that was quickly killed.In one room, about to grab a golden horn from the wall, Lyria had a vision of a large room with pillars and 6 adventurers tied to them. Lyria was a dragon with necrotic breath getting to kill them in the form of the dragon Umraxal. A voice was telling them to kill the adventurers.
Corridor to the south east: Two obsidian statues, faceless women, holding two silver threads between them. Conjuration magic.
Necromantic shadow curtains cover the wall between them.
Cael steps through the curtain, then Lyria. Double door says, “The shadow is the key”. The rest steps through. The rod we found last time fits the indentation on the floor.
Light shadow of the key on the door.
Piles of skulls and bones, shadowy, grey and miserable. World goes sepia.
Long corridor to the south.
Umbraxal’s lair.
welcome to umbraxakar's lair,
a dragon held in the grip of despair
conjures memories of his departed friend:
upon sunlight's blade, he met his end

Tiziano found the dining room and had a vision of Vanrak, Tiziano was a dragon.
Several visions, all from the dragon’s view.
While the group are discussing visions in the corridor Deyrus checks another door and finds three vampire spawn in a room to the south. A double door leads to Gaston, a yeti and more enemies.
Raven senses the dragon further south. Through some corridors and secret doors, finding an amethyst sarcophagus. After much effort stored in Cael’s portable hole.
Dragon is behind the doors to the north.

Heroe’s Feast still active

Opening doors to the dragon. Fight. Tiziano ran out of strength. Cael starts convincing. The oth-ers except Lyria helps. Glyster saved. Moonstar family.

Unwilling to give up hoard, but will reward.

Telling the story of Vanrak. The Lords of Waterdeep ordered him arrested and he fled to Un-dermountain. Glyster tried to go after and stop him. Vanrak and the cultists were deperate and convinced Glyster to be part of a ritual to transform Vanrakdoom to the shadowfell. Vanrak failed and destroyed himself by blade.
Giving Midnight Tears
Midnight Tears (Ingested). A creature that ingests this poison suffers no effect until the stroke of midnight. If the poison has not been neutralized before then, the creature must succeed on a DC 17 Constitution saving throw, taking 31 (9d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Glyster gives us a Pendant to Shar, valuable. Lots of coins. Electrum and silver. Bah.
Reward from house Moonstar:
In exchange for their help, Helion promises the friendship of House Moonstar, which comes with tangible benefits.

Short rest.
Glyster reluctantly let us see the hoard room. Tiziano running around opening doors and check-ing all corridors.

Descending to next floor 19. Oozy feeling. Effluvium. Eyes carved on the walls and ceiling follow us. Lyria and Cael go invisible.
Further in is a band of pirate orcs around a fireplace. Leader lady talks to us in orc. They start lobbing sylinders at us. We fight back.

There’s a broken pirate ship to the south in a big cavern. There is no treasure and it falls on top of Tiziano and Lyria. Deyrus and Bobbert strips the orcs of plate mail and burns the bodies.
Cael leads way through three water curtains before we find a huge singing fish. He asks to be called “mylord”.
Ichthyglug is a type of genie. Cael thinks Maruk?
He promises riches for a quest. Destroy a lich Ezzact and get his phylactery. Head down a floor. He needs the phylactery to leave this place.
Out of cave, stick to the left.
Going north and then left, there is more ooze and a tentacled ship. We climb it and get attacked by ballistaorcs.
Lyria: Remember to start with Mass Cure next time!

Save the Dragon
Prerequisite: Complete the “Throne of the Coronal” or the “Eye of the Spider” quest
Word reaches Lady Wylynd Moonstar, matriarch of the Moonstar noble family of Waterdeep, that a party of adventurers has had some success in Undermountain of late. She learns all she can about these adventurers before sending her grand-nephew, a well-mannered half-drow named Helion Moonstar, to meet with them. Helion is Wylynd’s heir apparent, and this mission is as much a test for him as it is for the adventurers.
Lady Wylynd is well over a hundred years old and senile, but she has never forgotten the dark blemish on her family’s honor left by Vanrak Moonstar, who lorded over House Moonstar long ago. Vanrak and his small army of Shar worshipers fled into Undermountain to escape punish-ment for their many crimes in the city. It’s Lady Wylynd’s recollection that a longtime ally of the Moonstar family, a bronze dragon named Glyster, was asked or told to find Vanrak and bring him back to Waterdeep to face justice. The dragon found Vanrak but could not wrest him from the depths of Undermountain. Instead, the dragon became corrupted by Shar’s magic. In this evil form, the dragon fought by Vanrak’s side for years, even serving as his mount from time to time.

Lady Wylynd believes it’s her family’s responsibility to free the dragon from Shar’s evil grasp one way or another. She asks Helion to meet with the adventurers and convince them to find the shadow dragon in Vanrakdoom one of the deeper levels of Undermountain, and break Shar’s hold over him. Failing that, they should put the dragon out of his misery. In exchange for their help, Helion promises the friendship of House Moonstar, which comes with tangible bene-fits:
House Moonstar magic item trading (downtime activity). Housemoonstar offers any tier appro-priate items for trade (player choice) this downtime activity can only be done once per charac-ter.

Wyllow, druid, rules floor 5, wanted party to kill werebats and babies. Party decided not to.
Clan Ironeye 6th floor.
Dragon 5th floor.
Room, tapestry, dwarven kingdom mountain, ancient.
We’re in the temple of Dumathoin. Looking for tomb of King Malair.
This floor was once a dwarven kingdom. King Malair was the leader.
After a long rest, venturing west out of the main hall. Around a couple of corners there’s an Umberhulk, who’s ruined the bottle storage.
Northwest corner guarded by two metal dwarf statues. Shrine of four deities. The statues represent the dwarven deities Moradin (god of creation), Berronar Truesilver (god of hearth and home), Clangeddin Silverbeard (god of battle), and Marthammor Duin (god of exploration). Tapered brass sylinder on the floor. Part of an instrument? Trumpet piece? Not magical.
Wide corridor south.

Fresco of dwarves throwing gems into a xorn’s mouth. Real gems in the wall, pulled out.
Wall image of a rust monster. Erik touched a rusty spike, stepped through the gate and got restrained for 24h? Small room with alchoves. Ninlar used scroll to help Eric. Eric running back, it seems we are on floor 2 with the goblin market.
Returning through gate, Lyria gets the ability to cast augury 3x without comps or fails.
South door, empty room. Doors in all directions. West door. Furniture removed. Glowing pillars. Corridor north, crushed door, pit. Across the pit, a Xorn. It says something in Terran, Eric attacks with no warning.
Xorn runs, party chasing. Eric and Ninlar killed it. Moving back south after valuables, back past portal and room with doors. Opening south door, new portal. Carved with a stylized image of a mountain with a sun above it. Struggling to open the portal.
Moving on west and south, room with pillars. Stone finds secret doors to the south. Wall opens. Panels. Sarcophagus opens as we enter. Battle axes breaks free from walls and attacks. Lyria kills most with an Ice storm. Valuable crystal panels.
Discussion about what to do, leave the panels and get the duergar to pay for them. Someone coming towards us, invisible. Halaster, casting fireball at everyone except Eric. Eric fighting Umberhulk around the corner.
Halaster turned out to be a grey thing. Two umberhulks? Ruined wall. Large room, doorway with image of a hand pouring ale from a flagon on the south.
Lyria feels treasure to the south west. No secret doors. Back to the axe tomb room. Stone finds a secret door. Lyria finds a pit trap. Stone eventually finds another secret door. Large chamber with four statues of the four dwarven deities.
Lyria hears a voice in her mind promising to aid in revealing the true treasure if the knocks over the statue to the north west. Tiziano helps, devil comes out of the statue and thanks Lyria.
Malair’s tomb. Tiziano finds no traps, opens the sarcophagi. Writing etched in silver. Adamantine warpick, shield of dumathoin (sentinel shield). Stone picks up and throws the shield to Lyria. Eric tries to stop them. Ninlar carries off Eric. Demons have crushed other statues and multiplied, cornering the party to be devoured in a month or so.
