The Dark Lady's ritual
Inside the sanctuary there are three statues, the party can interact with. Each of the three statues provides a unique Shar blessing until the next Long Rest:
- (+5 to Charisma) - Center statue
- (+5 to Wisdom) - South-eastern statue (on the right as viewed from the center statue)
- (+5 to Intelligence) - North-eastern statue (on the left as viewed from the center statue)
A DC 14 Saving throw for the corresponding Ability is required at each of the statues in order to receive the Dark Lady's blessing(s). Each blessing may only be obtained once. As a cleric of Shar, Shadowheart can bypass the saving throws using a unique dialogue option with guarantees success. However, if the Nightsong has been freed, then Shadowheart rolls with Disadvantage. Warlocks also get a special interaction option with Advantage to the Charisma check statue.
Succeeding all three saving throws opens a door to a hidden chamber, where a sacrificial ritual can be performed. It is not necessary for all three saving throws to be made by the same character.
Failing a saving throw will grant a debuff condition that lasts until the next Long Rest:
- (-5 to Charisma)
- (-5 to Wisdom)
- (-5 to Intelligence)
Interacting with the Shar Altar in the hidden chamber grants the option to perform a blood sacrifice ritual to Shar. Completing this ritual reveals some scrolls and potions, besides earning approval from Shadowheart. The ritual has no negative side effects.
Stealing the Ritual Dagger of Shar or attacking any of the Statues of Shar, even after the ritual is successfully completed, triggers combat against a Charismatic Sentinel, a Wise Sentinel and an Intelligent Sentinel. Taking the dagger also yields disapproval from Shadowheart, unless she's the one picking it up .
If Shadowheart interacts with the statues after freeing the Nightsong, she will have disadvantage on the saving throw(s), which can be countered by having Selune's Spear of Night equipped for advantage, thereby canceling each other out. The Ritual Dagger of Shar is the only item in the hidden chamber,
