Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide

New Character Options and Progression

The expansion enhances character building by introducing new ways to define and advance player characters. This content is focused on providing more depth for players invested in the core D&D mechanics of the original title.

A notable addition to character classes is the introduction of the Harper Scout prestige class, providing specialized abilities for those pursuing that specific path within the game world.

Expanded Skill and Feat Selection

The breadth of tactical choices during character creation and leveling is increased with the addition of new skills, such as Tumble and Appraise. Furthermore, new feats, including Divine Might and Bullheaded, offer fresh mechanical advantages in combat and interaction.

New Equipment and Magical Arsenal

Adventurers gain access to new consumable items, such as Holy Water Flasks and Choking Powder, to use in challenging situations. The magical capabilities of spellcasters are also broadened with the inclusion of dozens of new spells.

What New Adversaries Await Exploration?

This content pack introduces a host of new creatures drawn from the Dungeons & Dragons universe, presenting fresh combat challenges that require players to adapt their strategies.

Players will encounter formidable new monsters, including the serpentine Medusa, the petrifying Cockatrice, the riddle-posing Sphinx, and the physically imposing Female Fire Giant. These additions increase the variety of encounters within the game world.

Enhancements for User-Generated Content Creation

A key focus of this expansion is the augmentation of the Aurora Toolset, the software included with the main game that allows users to design their own adventures.

For amateur module makers, the toolset receives significant upgrades. This includes all-new tile sets, enabling the creation of visually distinct and new environments for custom quests. Additionally, new "Wizards" are added—these are automated guides designed to streamline the building process and assist gamers in playing their self-created adventures more effectively.

Platform Availability and Integration

This expansion is available for players on PC (Microsoft Windows) and Mac platforms. It functions as a direct extension of the main game and does not operate as a standalone title. The content is designed to seamlessly integrate with the existing mechanics and narrative framework of the original release.
