Sargauth Level

The Sargauth Level made up the third level of Undermountain. It connected to Skullport by way of a tunnel and the River Sargauth. It once held the ancient town of Stromkuhldur, which fell into ruins before the late 15 century. Drow and goblinoid parties sought to gain control of these ruins, previously inhabited by the Netherese and the Melairkyn dwarves.

Inhabitants

 * Drow: An expedition from House Auvryndar had captured a section of Stromkuhldur—a former temple dedicated to Dumathoin—and turned it into a hatchery for giant spiders.


 * Azrok's Army: Azrok, a hobgoblin warlord, led a legion on this level. He eventually led his forces to Stromkuhldur, ridding the place of troglodytes and grimlocks. He was eventually forced to give up part of his domain when drow attacked him, making many of his subjects turn to the Xanathar's Thieves' Guild.


 * Sea Hags: Several sea hags dwelt in the River Sargauth.
