Notes
The heroes descend into the sublevels of Durlag's Tower. On the first sublevel, The Hall of Honor, the adventurers find four statures of the Dwarven gods Moradin *(the Shorn)*, Vergadain *(the Hunter)*, Abbathor *(the Delver)*, and Gorm *(the Crafter)*. The statues animate as clay golems as chase the adventurers from the hall and down the stairs. The second sublevel, Vergadain's Crusade, featured a number of walls of force and a vast quantity of dwarven firespirits, an ancient, potent and flammable alcohol. Hidden within the thousands of gallons of spirits were gelatinous cubes that tried to drown the adventurers in the spirits, but ingenuity (and a lot of held breath) prevailed. The third sublevel was Gorm's Gauntlet, a dynamic tilting walkway device over a magma pool and surrounded by moving walls that nearly burned the adventurers while they dealt with swooping *horned devils.* Sublevel four is themed to Abbathor's Greed & Avarice, with the room filled with piles and piles of illusory treasure, all cursed to any who would take it. By solving the riddles of the statues of the dwarven gods, the group were able to descend to the lowest level, Durlag's Tomb. Within Durlag's Tomb were trophies from his heroic deeds in legendary times, but also an ancient copper tablet that seems to hold clues to the magic used to create trolls in ancient times, as well as Durlag's favorite battle-axe, Skeggox. While removing the tablet and Skeggox from the Tomb, the adventurers are attacked by Baron Rajiram's forces: a simulacrum of the *cloud giant smiling one* himself, supported by several *warlords* and two *master thieves*. After vanquishing the foes, the adventurers return to SEER with the tablet. *Found one Potion of Superior Healing, one Potion of Invulnerability* **Story Award: Favor of Candlekeep.** Your surrender of the copper tablet to the acolytes of Oghma at Candlekeep has them overjoyed. The Great Readers spend many weeks poring over the ancient artifact’s hidden meanings and may one day puzzle out where the missing section is located. The next time you visit Candlekeep or interact with the faithful of Oghma, any Charisma ability checks you make are made with advantage.

Magic Items
| Character | Name | Rarity | Location | Table | Result | Counts? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kalte Snowbound | Skeggöx (+3 Battleaxe) | Very Rare | Durlag's Tomb, laid to rest with the ancient Dwarven hero | true | ||
| This impressive battleaxe possesses a massive haft with a huge gear turning gently atop it. Connected to the gear are a series of gnashing blades that extend when the weapon is wielded against giants. As a bonus action, a dwarf or a character that worships a dwarven deity may brandish this weapon and gain advantage on one Charisma (Intimidation) check. Once this property has been used, it can’t be used again until the following dawn. | ||||||
