History
In life, Muragh was a talkative cleric of Lathander. He was considered both a touchy and opinionated individual, these traits combined with aforementioned talkativeness got so much on a certain wizard's nerves in repeated fashion that the wizard cursed Muragh, who got killed in a bar fight. The curse was one that made it impossible for the priest's consciousness to move on, instead it remained on Toril inside his skull, attached to his increasingly rotting body. Some soldier got scared of the talking skull. So he cut the head off and kicked him into water. There, two things happened, first fishes ate his remaining flesh and Muragh became a clean skull. Second, the resident merman population was freaked out by the talking skull and brought him on land to the authorities, namely a wizard employed by the City Watch called Thandalon Holmeir. This wizard came to the conclusion that Muragh was ultimately harmless and started to use him as ornamentation for his table in the Piergeiron's Palace's spell library where Muragh worked as a watch-skull, which was a duty he was quite successful at. Some thieves broke into said library and misjudged Muragh for a powerful magic item, because he talked to them. Said thieves brought him to Undermountain, left him on a table in a room that lay south of the Entry Well where he still remained in 1371 DR.
