Tower of the Order

The Tower of the Order was the headquarters and seat of the Watchful Order of Magists and Protectors in Waterdeep.

The Tower was situated in the Castle Ward on the Street of Bells, near the middle of the block between Selduth Street and Buckle Alley.

Architecture

Stretching four stories tall, the Tower of the Order was fashioned from stone and surrounded by a magical fence of green-sparkling lights that coalesced into the symbols of Mystra and Azuth. A mosaic of the hand of Azuth above the Tower's ingress was said to guard the tower, ready to fire spells at any would-be intruders. As of the 1360s DR, it was considered the most spectacular guildhall in the Castle Ward,

The Tower's cellars were heavily guarded by golems and magical traps.

Tourism

The Watchful Order provided spellcasting for a fee, and could also be hired to stand guard over buildings to prevent and extinguish fires. Members of the Order could purchase spell components and magic items from the Tower's cellars.
