Neverwinter: Lost City of Omu is a campaign expansion module for the Neverwinter massive-multiplayer role-playing game. Released in February 2018, the expansion added a number of new features and raised the level cap of the game.

The location of the Lost City of Omu has been revealed! Adventurers from across the Sword Coast have traveled to Chult in search of a cure for the mysterious death curse that prevents resurrection and causes those brought back from the dead to slowly rot. The strange malady has no known cure, but investigations have revealed the source of the problem may lie in these jungle lands.

Plot[]

The Heroes of Sleeping Dragon Bridge journeyed to the ruins of Omu and met up with a guide named Eku. She explained that Omu once honored nine trickster gods, whose power was being constrained by Acererak and his yuan-ti minions. Eku's communications with the trickster gods eventually revealed that the death curse was being caused by an artifact called the Soulmonger that was harvesting the souls of the dead and resurrected, though what Acererak intended to do with these souls she could not say. While helping to restore the gods' power, the heroes rescued Tristopher Chettlebell, who had been captured by the yuan-ti and taken below the city. They also met a mysterious woman named Val, who insisted that the Soulmonger be shut down without destroying it so that she could study it.

The heroes found an entrance to the Fane of the Night Serpent deep beneath the city. They were joined by Celeste, who had received a vision from Selûne regarding the evil serpent god Dendar. After slaying the yuan-ti priestess Fenthaza and clearing their way to Acererak's tomb, Makos arrived and made his own plea that the Soulmonger could be used for good. By denying liches souls to feed on they could be destroyed forever, and Nanny Pu-Pu's ritual could be used to save those who must be raised. Celeste furiously accused him of being a lich himself, swearing to personally destroy his phylactery if he ever advocated for Acererak again. Through Eku, the trickster gods revealed that Acererak had somehow found an atropal and intended to use the Soulmonger to nurture it into a new evil god. The heroes descended back into the Tomb of the Nine Gods, where the trickster gods severed the atropal's connection to the Soulmonger, destroying the artifact.
