Erik Sliphand was one of the ancient heroes interred within one of the crypts within the catacombs. In 1369 DR, the armor of shadows was still within its original owner's sarcophagus. Erik's spirit, along with several other heroes' in the same crypt, was still trapped inside the ruined city and corrupted by the magics of the Weeping War.
