Neverwinter: Mountain Of Flame

In the Mountain of Flame module, the smoking volcano, Mount Hotenow, is rumbling once again and threatening to erupt. The mighty fire giant Gommoth, who lives deep within the mountain, plans to use the growing magma to free the sleeping Primordial within the volcano.  Adventurers must band together to do quell the flames and battle against Gommoth and his forces before the powers of the primordial destroy all of the Sword Coast!  Heroes who take on this blazing adventure will find plenty of content in Neverwinter, including:

  • Unvaulted Adventure Zone – Mount Hotenow

    • Prepare to quell the flames as the Mount Hotenow adventure zone will be unvaulted, re-worked and re-populated in this new module! In addition to dangerous lava flows and ashen geysers, Gommoth’s elemental forces have overrun Mount Hotenow. Adventurers will encounter fire archons, twisted cultists, and other fire foes as they explore the craggy terrain.

  • Unvaulted Dungeon – Lair of the Mad Dragon

    • Under the guidance of prophet Rohini, Ashmadi cultists have overrun Helm’s Hold for the Hex Locus, an artifact with the power to piece realities and warp the nature of beings. Rohini has warped the mind of a green dragon Chartilifax to guard the Hex Locus. Convinced his true form is a green elf and subservient to Rohini’s wishes, Chartilifax stands guard over the Hex Locus and will devour any who come to claim the artifact.

  • Quality of Life Improvements
