Description Location
This district caters to adventurers, with a wide array of businesses aimed at explorers and Upper Dura
fortune hunters. It is the home base of the Clifftop Adventurer's Guild.
Daggerwatch holds garrisons for both the Sharn Watch and the Brelish army, along with busi- Upper Dura
ness and residences for those who support the garrisons.
A district built by dwarves for dwarves, Highhold has strong Mror influences in its architec- Upper Dura
tu re. It's a good place to find Mror goods and is home to talented smiths and brewers.

camaraderie between them.
A comfortable residential district, Stormhold is home to the few powerful families that have Middle Dura
remained in Dura. It's in better condition than most of Middle Dura, and Deneith mercenar-
ies protect the streets.
A poor residential district, Tumbledown has experienced recent incursions from Daask. Middle Dura
The center of Sharn's nightlife before Menthis Plateau was built, Underlook is a collection of Middle Dura
poor taverns and inns.
Home to an assortment of squalid and poor businesses, Callestan is a nexus for criminal ac- Lower Dura
tivity and known as a stronghold of the Boromar Clan.

district during the Last War. Now it's a collection of wretched ruins.
A squalid slum, providing miserable housing for desperate people.

strous immigrants from Droaam and Darguun, along with members of Daask.
