“Waterdeep. City of Splendors. Crown of the North. Ah, it all comes back to me now...
Are ye so sur ye wish to live and adventure within the City of Splendors herself? Best of luck to you, then, but tread carefully in the intrigue and drama of Waterdeep lest ye stir the attention of the Lords...or something less than kindly...”
~Elminster of Shadowdale
Many of you might not remember December 1987 or a tiny article in Dragon Magazine titled, “Welcome to Waterdeep” by Ed Greenwood. It was more than half-a-lifetime ago for me, but those mental images of his creation are still fresh in my mind. I remember being sucked into that world. I have revisited that place many time since, written more than I should have about it and have introduced many younger people to that wonderful place.
Now, I am going to introduce an entire new ganre to Waterdeep, with the use of a rather unique medium. Minecraft has given me a new perspective into the City of Splendors and a chance to share it with all of you. Wether you are a Forgotten Realms fan, a Dungeons and Dragons enthusiest or just like Minecraft and want to see something different, I know you will enjoy your visit and our trip together, as things develop and unfold in the City of Waterdeep.
This build started by accident and has become the new focus of future development. I like Dwarven Mines, Cities and structures, so this is out of character somewhat for me. The City is an emense project at approxamately 4000 blocks long by 2700 blocks wide (13000ft. x 9000ft.) and will take some considerable time to complete as the pile of information and spacifics has to be gone through and translated into Minecraft format. Not just the thousand some-odd Buildings and Walls, but the City Sewers, Skull Port and Under Mountain. Yes, the build will be a “Complete” representation of Ed Greenwoods creation.
For those of you who follow this build, I thank you.
