'''Cazador's Dungeon''' is a [[location]] in [[Act Three]] where the player can find and confront [[Cazador Szarr]].

It can be accessed through a dais in the ballroom of the [[Szarr Palace]]. 

This area was part of a vast subterranean realm of dwarven make by exiles of Bhaerynden, originally known as [[The Tourmaline Depths]].

===Cazador's Room===
Cazador's room is a small chamber found by taking the first left though a sealed Crypt Gate when entering from the ballroom in the [[Szarr Palace]].

Inside his room are several lore-related [[books]]. Interacting with the inanimate skull of the vampire [[Vellioth|Velioth]], Cazador's progenitor, leads to a series of three {{Ability check|Wisdom|15}}, providing information about his and Cazador's shared past. Whether you succeed or fail the checks, you will receive the [[Black Mass Scroll]], which contains information about Cazador's Ascension Ritual and will progress the quest [[The Pale Elf]]. 

===Lower Floor===
The lower floor can be accessed from the upper floor using [[Feather Fall]], [[Misty Step]], or [[Fly]] from the halls northwest of the elevator. Alternatively, a button on a pillar in the room to the west {{Coords|1=-1964|2=842}}raises and lowers a massive chandelier {{Coords|-1964|832}}which can be used as an elevator to enter and leave this level.{{Bug}} 

The center of the room to the west is filled with a damaging caustic brine. Additionally, there is a locked crypt gate ([[DC]] 30) connecting to the [[Lower City Sewers|Lower City Sewers - Gloomy Ascent]]. The dungeon cannot be entered from the sewers prior to unlocking the gate from this side. 

In a room to the east, hidden in a dirt pile ({{Ability check|Perception|15}}) in a trapped ([[DC]] 15) rosewood casket {{Coords|-1926|853}}, is the {{ItemIcon|name=Pelorsun Blade|size=20|show_name=1|show_rarity=1}}. This weapon deals radiant damage, which is highly effective against Cazador.{{Bug}}

=== Cells ===
[[Sebastian]], one of Astarion's first victims, can be found in a cell here; speaking to him progresses the quest [[The Pale Elf]]. [[Chessa]], one of the abducted [[Gur]] children, can be found on the other side, advancing [[Investigate Cazador's Palace]].

===The Grand Chamber===
The Grand Chamber is found at the northernmost point of Cazador's Dungeon. In this room the player can find and confront [[Cazador|Cazador Szarr]].

==Notable loot==
Notable items obtained in this location, whether looted, purchased, or obtained as a quest reward:
* {{MdRarityItem|Pelorsun Blade}} - on the lower level, in a trapped rosewood casket {{coords|-1925|851}}:
''Looted from Cazador Szarr:''
* {{MdRarityItem|Woe}}
* {{MdRarityItem|Szarr Family Ring}}
* {{MdRarityItem|High Security Vault n°3 Key}}
* {{MdRarityItem|Rhapsody}}

== Bugs ==
* The chandelier which serves as an ersatz elevator sometimes works correctly, but other times party members may be "left behind" after jumping onto it and fall to their deaths. (Most recent test Path 6, Hotfix 25)
* The trapped casket with the [[Pelorsun Blade]] may not be present on some platforms. One player reported that his playthrough on console did not have the casket or weapon, either before or after defeating Cazador or after reloading. Although the casket may require noticing and then digging up.
