Slitherswamp

Slitherswamp was the eighth level of Undermountain. Originally a collection of temples dedicated to evil yuan-ti gods, the yuan-ti were wiped out by spirit nagas. In light of this event, Halaster Blackcloak brought in a bullywug tribe, governed by a cruel death slaad.

Exits
The following ways could be used to leave Slitherswamp:
 * A tunnel in the north-west part of this dungeon up to level 7, Maddgoth's Castle.
 * A tunnel in the south-west part of this down to level 9, Dweomercore.
 * An archgate in a three-fork 5-meter-high cave and a mirror gate to level 10, Murial's Gauntlet.
 * A standing gate to level 11, the Troglodyte Warrens.

Inhabitants

 * The Ssethian Scourges: These were three spirit nagas who once fought the yuan-ti on this level, eventually emerging victorious. The nagas maintained a stable of thralls, controlling them with a rod of rulership.


 * The Blacktongues: Sent in by Halaster Blackcloak, this bullywug tribe acted quickly, enslaving four carrion crawlers and a hydra. The death slaad king's control gem was kept on level 9, Dweomercore, and Halaster Blackcloak forced the slaad to rule over the bullywugs.


 * Karstis of Dweomercore: The mages on level 9, Dweomercore, had sent a spy of their own, a mage named Karstis.
