The Underdark, and Faerûn's Underdark in particular, have been written about in guidebooks so many times that what possibly more could be said? Well, aside from some very cool Underdark specific druid and ranger stuff (I love the Favored Terrain spells in this series), we also visit areas of the Underdark other than Menzoberranzan, Gracklstugh, Blingdenstone, the usual suspects as it were. I was particularly interested in the 5e update of the Sharn Wall. We also find, in addition to the usual excellent write ups in this series of flora and fauna, a few interesting statblocks: a set of alternate deep dragons to the ones found in the more recent Fizban's Treasury of Dragons, at a higher CR across the board, and then a different take on the phaerimm than the one found in Minsc and Boo's Journal of Villainy - these ones come in different age categories, like a dragon. Which versions you prefer is up to you!
