Gunhild the Watchful was a dwarf who served as a guard captain in Hal Stoutheart's Tethyamar expedition during the 1480s DR.[1][note 1]

By the gods, now is the time to strike! We found the Drow Stronghold after sending countless scouts to search the mines.
There's not a moment to waste. I need to send someone in, and you'll do. Your mission is to infiltrate the Stronghold and kill the Drow's commander, a Priestess.
Now, make haste!
— Gunhild[1]

Description[]

Gunhild had dark brown skin, brown hair, and wore a suit of sturdy plate armor.[1]

History[]

Forget the Jewels! I will not allow any distractions. Our top priority is ensuring the safety of the Dwarves here in the Mining Outpost.
— Gunhild[1]

Gunhild was the guard captain of Stoutheart's group, and worked to protect the dwarves from the myriad threats beneath the earth as they looked for the jewels of ardor. Unfortunately, a House Argith drow expedition from Sschindylryn arrived as well and began enslaving the dwarves to mine the jewels for them. Once the drow stronghold was located, Gunhild sent a team to destroy their forces and slay their leader, the High Priestess Talice Argith. She waved off any mention of focusing on recovering the jewels of ardor, and so her team fought their way into the drow outpost and slew the High Priestess, saving many slaves in the process. When they returned Gunhild's mood had changed precipitously, and she was greatly angered that they had not recovered any jewels of ardor while on their assault. Only the fact that they had destroyed the drow army stayed her wrath.[1]

Notes[]

  1. The Mines of Tethyamar is dated to 1487 DR, as it seems to reflect Graz'zt's activities during the Rage of Demons event.
