The Singing Sword

This busy three-story tavern enjoy one of the largest menus in Waterdeep, where patrons are dine while entertained by the high-voiced ballads of the wondrous magical blade for which the tavern is named.

This black-bladed long sword was brought to Waterdeep long ago and customarily stands upright in the open central well of the tavern, encircled by the spiraling stairs to the upper floors, and is silent. Once an hour, one of the tavern staff lifts the blade and holds it high to activate its song.

The will of the holder determines the song, and angry or upset holders' thoughts have been known to make the blade segue into a second song after it has begun singing. The sword's magic has never failed, and it in fact seems immune to anti-magic spells. Its voice is high, clear, and almost bell-like, and it has been known to mimic the voices of others who sing along with it in order to better harmonize.
