Waterdeep The God Catcher

The God Catcher is a tenement building in the Castle Ward of Waterdeep,situated near The Market, at the intersection of Sul Street and Heard Lane. The building was originally one of the colossal Walking Statues of Waterdeep. During the Spellplague all the guardians of the city were animated and they walked around Waterdeep wreaking havoc. The Blackstaff at the time, Tsarra Chaadren, turned the ground to mud underneath the statue and it sank partway into the ground. As mysteriously as it animated, it stopped and settled in the Castle Ward, just north of the Market at the intersection of Sul Street and Heard Lane.   Over time, the statue was hollowed out and partitioned into living quarters. The leg that sank into the ground penetrated a sewer line so a stairway was hollowed out inside of it allowing access to the sewer system of the city. As of 1 YA, the statue/building was owned by the reclusive sorcerer Aundra Blacklock, who lived in the hollowed-out stone sphere that floated above the statue's upraised right hand.
A fallen statue, caught in the cobbles of the city it tried first to save, and then to destroy
