So...you think you are so powerful, hero? That no number of enemies may stand before you without meeting their demise? That your spell and steel shall triumph over all who stand in your path to glory and riches?

Well then...I say prove it...
THE QUIVERING THUMB ARENA
NW-DKL6MAOG6
A mild-length quest for 2-3 players, but is completely solo-able given that you know how to play your character well. Based off the famous (or, if you prefer, infamous) gladiatorial enterprise known as The Quivering Thumb from traditional Forgotten Realms lore. Enjoy a thrilling (and rewarding) arena battle that puts your Crowd-Controlling and multi-engaging skills to the test by pitting you against wave after wave of enemies, each wave a different species, culminating in a terrifying battle with an entire legion of undead and a high-intensity brawl with a pack of werewolves. Enjoy humorous opening/closing dialogue that sets the simple story for the otherwise straight-forward quest, and be reminded that you are not the first to brave The Thumb's bloody arena as you fight your foes surrounded by the damage and debris left behind by those who emerged victorious, and the bodies of those who were not as lucky.

Please enjoy this humble quest that I hope will at some point make it to the top of the list in the Neverwinter foundry, and leave reviews and tips to tell me how I can improve to get it there. New updates to the arena are a regular occurrence as I learn more and more about the foundry's options, and get the undying urge to move that one discarded sword a few feet over for no apparent reason other than to make me feel as though I actually did something that day.

Thanks for your time and please have fun!

UPDATES:
1.6.2: Added better scenery, several new effects, and background music.
1.7.1: Added a Mindflayer wave, additional scenery, more story, and a final "boss" wave that sets up sequels to this quest.
1.8.1: Major bug fixes and naming updates to comply with PW's new and "improved" list of profane words.
1.9.0: Dramatic scenery updates, bug fixes, dialogue fixes, and placement improvements, as well as other tweaks and edits to make The Thumb more entertaining!

    Also, if anybody has any ideas for it, please share them here so I can see what people think would be cool to do with an Arena-battle quest!

    So YOU'RE the guy who kept me from getting the username I wanted!

    I was wondering why I found a foundry by myself when I can't even use it yet lol then I remembered "oh yeah, I had to put a "the" at the beginning of my name.

    Great foundry though! I loved the arena lord and the last wave of undead. I gave you a 5/5 rating and would have tipped you but I don't have any Astral Diamonds yet haha
