Three Thrown Daggers Alley
Three Thrown Daggers Alley is located in Dock Ward, Waterdeep.
Linking Blackstar Lane and Spiderweb Alley this winding way is famous for the curse cast here by the mage Arundoom. Struck in the back by three daggers hurled by a treacherous apprentice, he survived to take revenge. Once for each of his eight years of apprenticeship, the apprentice was driven by magical fear to flee up the alley and there face three animated daggers that swooped out of thin air at random points up and down the alley.
The spell survives, despite the efforts of later wizards to eradicate it. Because of this, anyone using the alley must beware three random attacks.
Thugs sometimes lure or chase intended victims into the alley to get them injured. This route is sometimes called just "Thrown Dagger Alley".
