[[File:Wyrm's Rock Fortress Top.jpg|thumb|400px|right|Wyrm's Rock Fortress]]
On approaching the Wyrm's Rock Fortress for the first time, the drawbridge leading inside will be lifted due to extreme safety measures for the coronation of [[Enver Gortash]]. The passage is guarded by several Flaming Fist and a Steel Watcher.


=== Ground level ===
However, there are several ways to get past the guards:
Quartmaster {{CharLink|Arkleia Oloril}} can be convinced to show her stock of goods. Successfully convincing her earns the[[File:Inspiration Icon.png|24px|link=]][[Inspiration|Inspirational Event]] '''Nothing's Not for Sale''' ([[Charlatan]] background).
* [[Archducal Coronation - Admission Pass|Admission Pass to the coronation]], wrested from {{CharLink|Arfur Gregorio}}
* [[Lower City Pass]] granted by {{CharLink|Valeria|Investigator Valeria}}
* [[Urgent Report for Duke Ravengard]] (found at the [[Sword Coast Couriers]] in [[Rivington]])
* Bribing the patrol head officer {{CharLink|Elin|Blaze Elin}}
* Several other options, based on the class of your character


The Flaming Fist barracks and mess hall can be found on this floor.
Alternatively, the party can walk around the patrol, by, for example, jumping down from the [[Wyrm's Crossing]] side onto the rocky footing of the fortress at {{coords|27|158}}.


[[Wyrm's Rock Prison]] can be accessed from the quartermaster's room.
Entering Wyrm's Rock Fortress for the first time earns following [[File:Inspiration Icon.png|24px|link=]][[Inspiration|Inspirational Events]], depending on the way the party chose:
* Convincing the Flaming Fist patrol into letting you in - '''Rock-Solid Alibi''' ([[Charlatan]] Background), '''Multipass''' ([[Noble]] Background)
* Getting in without a pass - '''Procedures be Damned''' ([[Noble]] background), '''Through Nooks and Crannies''' ([[Urchin]] Background).


=== Audience hall ===
Wyrm's Rock Fortress is connected to the south to [[Wyrm's Crossing]], and to the north to the [[Lower City]]. Behind the drawbridge starts a tunnel that goes throughout the fortress to the Lower City, guarded by three Steel Watchers and yet another Flaming Fist patrol in the far end.
Visiting the upper floor the first time, {{CharLink|Enver Gortash|Enver Gortash's}} coronation will be {{Quest|Get Gortash's Netherstone#Gortash's Bargain|underway}}. Witnessing the coronation earns the[[File:Inspiration Icon.png|24px|link=]][[Inspiration|Inspirational Event]] '''Personal Invitation''' ([[Entertainer]] background), and agreeing to an alliance earns '''Shaking Bane's Hand''' ([[Acolyte]] background).


=== Roof ===
=== Ground floor ===
Gortash's personal quarters are located in a large structure in the center of the roof. {{SmRarityItem|Helldusk Boots}} and {{SmRarityItem|Servitor of the Black Hand Gloves}} can be found in guarded chests inside.
The ground floor of the fortress consists of two parts, located to the both sides of the tunnel.
 
To the right there is the door to the first floor.
 
To the left there are two doors, where the [[Flaming Fist]]s are quartered. The southern door leads into kind of a reception room, while the northern opens into barracks. The plaque near the latter door tells it to be for authorized personnel only, but nevertheless the door is not red-outlined.
 
In the reception room the party can encounter several citizens waiting to be judged for transgressions. There is also Quartermaster {{CharLink|Arkleia Oloril}} sitting behind the counter. She can be convinced to show her stock of goods. Successfully convincing her earns the[[File:Inspiration Icon.png|24px|link=]][[Inspiration|Inspirational Event]] '''Nothing's Not for Sale''' ([[Charlatan]] background).
 
In the barracks the party can find several Fists resting after duties - all but one, {{CharLink|Reynash|Fist Reynash}}, who tries to lockpick others' personal chests to steal something valuable. The party can choose to deal with Reynash or to wake other guards and resolve the situation with them.
Depending on party's choices, they might earn [[File:Inspiration Icon.png|24px|link=]][[Inspiration|Inspirational Event]]
* Intimidate/blackmail the thief - '''Easing His Leave, and His Pockets''' ([[Urchin]] background)
* Turn in the thief - '''Court Marshal''' ([[Soldier]] background)
 
=== First floor ===
The first floor consists of the mess hall and the kitchen. Upon first visiting the fortress, the party can encounter several patriars' bodyguards and attendants in the mess hall waiting for their masters to descend. There is a door that leads to the audience hall on the second floor.
 
=== Second floor ===
The second floor consists of the audience hall. Upon visiting the audience hall for the first time, the party can watch the ceremony of ordaining {{CharLink|Enver Gortash}} as an Archduke of Baldur's Gate. Upon noticing the party, Gortash interrupts the procedure to have a chat with them. Within the dialogue, the party is offered a choice to strike an alliance with Gortash. Witnessing the ceremony earns [[File:Inspiration Icon.png|24px|link=]][[Inspiration|Inspirational Events]] '''Personal Invitation''' ([[Entertainer]] background) and '''Coronation of the Dreadmaster''' ([[Sage]] background), while agreeing to make an alliance earns '''Shaking Bane's Hand''' ([[Acolyte]] background).
 
=== Top floor ===
The top floor consists of Gortash's personal quarters, which can be accessed either from inside (through the door in north-west corner of the audience hall), or from outside the fortress itself, using scaffolds and ladders attached to the walls, as well as various means of spatial movement ({{SAI|Grant Flight}}, {{SAI|Misty Step}} or {{SAI|Dimension Door}} spells and the like).
 
The {{SmRarityItem|Helldusk Boots}} and the {{SmRarityItem|Servitor of the Black Hand Gloves}}, as well as {{SmRarityItem|High Security Vault n°5 Key}} can be found in guarded chests and in the wall safe inside.
 
=== Basement ===
The basement of the fortress consists of [[Wyrm's Rock Prison]], which can be accessed from the reception room through the stairs in the far corner of the reception room.
