Waterdeep, City of Splendors Mysteries! This supplement is designed to aid Dungeon Masters in creating and running mystery-themed adventures in the course of Waterdeep: Dragon Heist or any other campaign set in the Crown of the North.
We begin in Trollskull Alley, where Dragon Heist adventurers set up shop near the Tiger’s Eye detective agency. You’ll learn the story of its proprietors, Vincent and Katie Trench.
Why merely grant your adventures investigative results for 50 gold when you can lead them through the investigation on their own? Young Katie Trench is presented as an investigative sidekick to assist, gaining new abilities alongside the adventures as they progress through level 10.
Next is a framework for creating your own mystery adventures, with advice drawn from prolific authors in the pulp detective genre.
Fifteen mysterious locations follow, spanning all the wards of Waterdeep. Providing flavorful settings for scenes in your adventure, they feature interesting NPCs and ideas for plot hooks.
Rounding things out are three new magic items utilized by the Trench family. Give them to your villains to assist their dastardly schemes and as rewards for your investigative player characters.
Mystery awaits you in Waterdeep!
