| Dungeon
of the Hark |
|
For many years, a wererat bandit gang has been operating out of these ruins, attacking travelers along the Delimbiyr. Their favorite strategy is a hit-and-run attack followed by a retreat into the depths of the dungeon when organized resistance is encountered. They've shown themselves to be fearless and cunning, never attacking in the same manner twice. They've also infected a great many of the survivors of caravans and adventuring groups with lycanthrope, in some cases swelling their own ranks. At last reports, 25 wererats were operating out of the ruins led by "the Hark".
Talk is spreading about the fate of a well-armed and prestigious adventuring company from Waterdeep that disappeared into the ruins. The Enclave of Echoes pretended to be caravan guards and then counter-attacked as the wererats hurled themselves at the caravan. The group hasn't yet returned from the dungeon, yet the wererats continue attacking travelers in the area.
