Overview of the Ancient Lair.

Ancient Lair is a location in the Lower City Sewers of Baldur's Gate in Act Three. It is accessed through a passageway to the west of the Undercity Ruins waypoint.

Area Information

The main chamber is filled with chests surrounding an open sarcophagus. A hidden (DC 10) locked (DC 20) door on the north wall opens to a second room. Opening any of the chests or unlocking the door will trigger an ambush by a horde of undead. Your party won't be surprised, but you will be inflicted with the Spell Rot curse, which causes each character to take 2d5 Necrotic damage per spell everytime they cast a spell (cantrips don't trigger the curse). The curse will be removed when you leave the lair.

The norther door leads to a workshop with a chopped up body and a dead half-elf. The Jar of Mystic Carrion's Brain is found on the central table, while Jar of Mystic Carrion's Liver is in the locked (DC 20) Gilded Chest. Destroying either of the jars will cause a large explosion (8d6 Fire damage). Reading the book Funerary Jar Form and Function on the nearby table, you will find out that Mystic Carrion has hidden his heart in a zombie (Thrumbo).
