Slug Keep Building / Landmark in Eberron | World Anvil

Slug Keep

The original name of this ruin is unknown, however the phospherescent slugs found in the area have earned these haunted stones the name "Slug Keep".   Slug Keep is a daelkyr ruin and a manifest zone linked to Kythri. The manifest zone directly overlaps with the daelkyr ruin, which might be the reason the daelkyr came to the Marches to begin with. Wild magic applies within this area, and transmutation or chaotic spells are more powerful. This area, like other ruins of its kind, is purported to contain a dimensional seal to block the effects of the manifest zone; if the seal is destroyed the usual effects of the zone return.   The Cults of the Dragon Below revere this ancient site. They believe that a tunnel to Khyber exists beneath the tower, but have only been able to confirm its existence by the presence of aberrations and other disturbing creatures slipping into the surface world.   The Gatekeepers, on the other hand, have been actively preventing travelers and pilgrims of The Dragon Below from seeking this site. Druids in the forms of viscious Wild Shapes block the path and intimidate creatures making the journey.

Draconic Prophecy:

  If a Gatekeeper Druid breaks the dimensional seal, the Shadow Marches becomes a new kingdom in three generations under the leadership of The Gatekeeper druids.
