During his long and fulfilling life, Rothilion worshiped Lathander, Tyr, and Oghma. He famously took an oath to forsake the Common language in favor of Elven. He focused his life on studying the lore and culture of Myth Drannor. He used that knowledge to develop, implement, and enforce laws that improved the lives of the citizens of the City of Song. The also became a committed patron of the arts, and authored many books. As he died of old age, he received a hero's burial in the Polyandrium district in a big crypt that held any items he appreciated in life.[3]
In 1369 DR, this crypt was unsealed for the first time since his during the Cult of the Dragon's attempt to corrupt Myth Drannor's mythal via a resurgent pool of radiance. The Crypt of Rothilion was one of the tombs they aimed to excavate in search of the Testament of Jade. The cultist named Nevessam was placed in charge of breaching the crypt's arcane seal. The crypt was unsealed by the group of adventurers who started their quest searching kidnapped villagers and were entangled in the plot of defending the ruins and opposing the Cult.[4]
