The Underdark is a series of underground caverns in a variety of places that is mostly inhabited by Drow, deep Gnomes and Duergar. Due to it being underground, there was very little light and limited water. Due to the malevolent dark creatures inherent in this environment - any 'surfacer' would have trouble surviving the myriad hazards in the unfriendly caverns and terrible tunnels.
Plot[]
In the Shadows of Amn saga, Gorion's Ward will have travel to the Underdark in pursuit of Jon Irenicus and Bodhi - either through a portal in Spellhold Basement or through a shaft in the City of Caverns.
While the party is down below, they will probably have to assume a magical disguise to impersonate the hostile drow denizens. This can be facilitated by Adalon and present the option of retrieving her eggs from the drow city of Ust Natha in order to return to the surface world. Many adventures, quests, risks, moments of danger, treasures and role-playing experiences await.
