With the Sundering and the return of the Dark Maiden, the Sword Dancers of Ardeep received an unmistakable message: the time had come to return and reclaim the Promenade.

With the Sundering and the return of the Dark Maiden, the Sword Dancers of Ardeep received an unmistakable message: the time had come to return and reclaim the Promenade. The years since its fall had not been kind, however, and the Moonspring network of portals was long-since devastated and disrupted. Moreover, the night they arrived in Waterdeep, as they came upon the city gates, they saw an unmistakable blessing: the Dark Maiden herself, dancing along the cliffs, above the level of the walls so that many Waterdhavians saw her, and dancing above a portion of the Field Ward.

Since then, the new temple without a temple, the Promenade-in-Exile, has taken upon itself a two-fold goal: to reclaim the Promenade, yes, but also to found a temple and dancing place above ground, within the city itself. Rather than a hidden dell tucked away in the forest, they will raise a hill within the city's walls, to show that the time for drow to take their place in the Lands of Light (even if that light is only the moonlight for some).

In pursuit of this goal, they have set up what community they can, finding homes and work for the drow of their temple within the city, and endeavoring to achieve their goals to the best of their ability. Yes, they have found allies in this – the noble elf lady Remallia Haventree, a known Harper, chief among them – but the opposition is terrible and vicious as well. Homes vandalized, and those who travel alone often attacked. But the Lady Leliana Vrinn knows that there is hard work ahead of them all, and it is work she is anxious to see underway.

Rites & Celebrations

  • The Evensong: Daily Rite. xxx
  • The Sword Dance: Any Night. xxx
  • Circle of Song: Any non-new Moon. xxx
  • Moonwright's Blessing: Full Moon. A simple blessing performed upon the materials that the faithful intend to use to create something. These materials must be holy to Eilistraee's faith: silver, moonstone, moonbar, and mithral, in specific. The materials become lucky and easy to work, and hold magic more readily. This is performed with a ceremony cast at the 2nd level during the full moon. The items in question are considered to be worth 25% more than their normal value for the purpose of crafting items, both magic and mundane, although their value cannot contribute to more than half of what is needed to create the item.
  • The High Hunt: Once per Season. xxx
