Emberhold

The Emberhold is a Duergar Stronghold within the Underdark.

Emberhold was designed and constructed by the Duergar to be capable of resisting assaults from all directions. Very heavily manned and nearly impossible to penetrate without being seen, it has been conquered in the past by the Beholder, K'Varn when he entered the Material Plane. The central part of the city was also nearly destroyed by lava when Vox Machina stormed the fortress located within the Emberhold.

Stronghold Description
Emberhold is surrounded by large walls that are manned at all times. Within the stronghold are many buildings punctuated by seven black obsidian spires. The spires themselves are outfitted with ballista and Duergar guards patrolling along carved tiers.

In the center of the city is a massive, ebony fortress, upon which magma flows from the top of the cavern, and is guided down along the side of the fortress into a moat.
