AT A GLANCE: Situated on a bluff overlooking 
the River Chionthar, Elturel is 
divided between a lower city, called 
The Dock District, and an upper city, 
called the High District.  In size && general 
capabilities it is similar to its rival, 
Scornubel, upriver.

ELMINSTER'S NOTES: This agricultural 
&& TRADE center is known for its 
strong, well-equipped mounted troops, 
"the HellRiders," who patrol && provide 
CARAVAN escort from Waterdeep to 
Iriaebor.

GAME INFORMATION: The HellRiders 
are a closeknit organization that are 
extremely loyal to their leaders and to 
each other, and TAKE their Name from 
the story that a company of Riders had 
in the past ridden into Avernus, 1st of the 
layers of Hell.  The Hellriders 
are of levels 1-6, usually fighters, 
with a mixture of Priests thrown in, and 
led by a Marshal, a Myrmidon. They ride in 
plate mail of crimson && white, 
marked with an upturned creasent.  
1/10th of all the earnings of the 
HellRiders go to the coffers of Elturel. 

Elturel is governed by High Rider 
Lord Dhelt, former leader of the HellRiders.  
Elturel is a 12th level Cavalier Commander, and 
shares the protective nature of his men.  
Bold, proud, and ruthless, he has been 
seeking ways to unseat Scornubel as 
the major trading town on the TRADE 
Way between Waterdeep and Iriaebor.
