    Halaster Blackcloak was the original Magister and the first Chosen of Mystra before Elminster. He went mad from the power. This is actually covered in Ed Greenwood's Elminster book series.

    Netherese didn&apos;t create Mythals, they used magical devices called &quot;Mythallar&quot;, or &quot;Mythallar Engines&quot;. It&apos;s also worth of notice that Skullport never had neither, but rather a &quot;Mantle&quot;. Not to be confused with the personal &quot;Shield&quot; of Elven Arcanists, this was a city-wide Mythal-like effect meant for protection. Maybe the Netherese thought the Elven <i>mantles</i> were so cool they decided to take and use that name for an entire city&apos;s &quot;Shield&quot;? (which was a powerful Netherese form of personal arcane protection, not to be confused with the 1st level spell by the same name. A Netherese shield could protect the caster from anything from the outside of it. It&apos;s strength and vitality depended on the caster, but if you were a smart dude, like Elminster, you could bypass a Netherese lich&apos;s Shield with your wits)

    I remember Undermountain from NWN1: Hordes of the Underdark. That was such a good expansion

    Oh, I have stories about this dungeon.<br><br><br>I play in a regular pseudo-Adventurer&apos;s League game at a game store in my area. My character at the time, a 8th level human Light cleric, only made it down to the 5th level before we switched over to the Season 10 (aka Descent into Avernus) stuff. Here&apos;s a few of the highlights:<br><br>-On level 1, we come to a door with a devilish face on it. Figuring it might open if I did something related to it, my character made a face similar to the one on the door. The DM, who is a totally cool bro, &nbsp;decides to put a minor magic item in the room even though it was supposed to be empty. He randomly rolls something - it&apos;s a <i>robe of useful items</i> with a total of 12 extra patches.<br><br>-There&apos;s one room that has a throne that, if you sit down in it, &nbsp;conjures up a snake that bites you for a lot of poison damage. Of course, our team&apos;s fighter, a shield dwarf Battle Master, sits in it, because he has to sit in every throne he sees. He has Heavy Armor Master, so he ignores the bite damage and resists the poison damage due to making his Con save and having innate poison resistance. &nbsp;<br><br>-Our final battle in Undermountain was against the archdruid on Level 5, with just me, the above dwarf, and a Ravnica minotaur fighter. My character gets dropped by a <i>fire storm</i> spell cast by it, and the dwarf decides to whip out its secret weapon...POCKET SAND. He throws the sand in the archdruid&apos;s eyes, blinding her. The DM decides to make it so she has to make a DC 10 Con save to get rid of the blindness...and of course, she kept failing it, even after turning into a MAMMOTH. As a result, I&apos;m brought back up with a potion, and we manage to beat her. Note, that this is <i>right after</i> after defeating a young green dragon. Three 8th level characters beat a CR 10(?) and a CR 12 enemy back to back with zero deaths! Sadly, we didn&apos;t get any farther...

    Concise summary that doesn&apos;t bog itself down in minutiae. &nbsp;Great job!

    Just started playing D&amp;D this past summer and our cammpaign is based all around Undermountain. Been super fun so far and we&apos;ve discovered and uncovered a lot of Level 1. Highly recommend it

    Currently in Undermountain atm with one of my D&amp;D groups. More specifically Skullport. So far it&apos;s pretty fun and expansive. I can&apos;t wait for Dungeon of the Mad Mage and the opportunity to explore Undermountain further.

    I am currently a second edition dungeon master who is running this here in Barnegat New Jersey with Dwarven Forge at Trottas hobbies.

    I would love to see a similar series on Dragonlance. So much great material.
