House of Thorne

The House of Thorne is a dilapidated old mansion in Waterdeep's Sea Ward. The home is named for the thorn vines that grow on its walls.

Three hundred years ago, it was the site on which the wizards who later became the Circle of Skulls attempted the ritual of the First Flensing. In 1480 DR the noblewoman and wizard Rilyanna Saerfynn attempted to complete the ritual in the house's basement but was killed by Quessahn Uthraebor.
