Haunted Mansion deep in the Neverwinter Wood

Results of a (post-adventure) Legend Lore on Montarthas Manor

  • Nearly 1000 years ago at this site, a town was a strategic garrison guarding a trade route transferring goods from a now-overgrown road from Yartar and Triboar to a tributary of the Neverwinter River.
  • Barges would carry goods to and from the site where Castle Never was being built.
  • Darkness came to the region as the garrison commander's family fell into ruin and in time the town vanished.
  • But one building stood despite the wastings of time - cursed in an eternal darkness: Montarthas Manor.
  • The forest thickened around the manor like a scab, and it has been largely forgotten but for unfortunate travelers and perhaps the careful watch of knowing druids of the Emerald Enclave - or visitation by dark fey or undead.
