 The [[Council of Waterdeep]] has tasked [[Deez Nuts]] with locating [[Maccath the Crimson]], a tiefling sorcerer and member of the [[Arcane Brotherhood]] who is the world's foremost expert on dragons and the [[Draakhorn]]. Maccath disappeared months ago while researching white dragons and the Draakhorn in the frozen north. Finding her could provide crucial intelligence on how to stop the Draakhorn's call to dragons or even destroy it.

== Find Maccath the Crimson ==
The [[Council of Waterdeep]] has tasked [[Deez Nuts]] with locating [[Maccath the Crimson]], a tiefling sorcerer and member of the [[Arcane Brotherhood]] who is the world's foremost expert on dragons and the [[Draakhorn]]. Maccath disappeared months ago while researching white dragons and the Draakhorn in the frozen north. Finding her could provide crucial intelligence on how to stop the Draakhorn's call to dragons or even destroy it.

=== Quest Giver ===
[[Council of Waterdeep]]

Specifically mentioned by:
* [[Ramalia Haventree]] of the [[Harpers]]
* [[Lady Dalla Silmerhelm]] of [[Waterdeep]]

=== Objective ===
Locate [[Maccath the Crimson]] in the [[Sea of Moving Ice]] and learn what she knows about the [[Draakhorn]] and dragons. Her knowledge is considered unparalleled, and she may have discovered information about the Draakhorn's location or how to neutralize its effect on chromatic dragons.

The Draakhorn is currently being sounded around the clock from the [[Well of Dragons]], calling dragons to the Cult's banner. If Maccath's research can help stop or destroy the Draakhorn, it would significantly disrupt the [[Cult of the Dragon]]'s plans.

=== Locations Involved ===
* [[Sea of Moving Ice]] - Maccath's last known location
* [[Luskan]] - Suggested starting point for gathering information about Arcane Brotherhood movements in the north
* The frozen north of [[Faerûn]]

=== Factions Involved ===
* [[Council of Waterdeep]] - Quest givers and sponsors
* [[Harpers]] - Providing intelligence support
* [[Arcane Brotherhood]] - Maccath's organization; members are generally not circumspect about their activities
* [[Cult of the Dragon]] - The enemy whose plans this quest aims to disrupt

=== Progress ===
'''Active''' - Quest assigned by the Council of Waterdeep in [[Session 43]]. The party has been deputized by the Council to pursue this mission. No progress has been made yet, as the party chose to first investigate [[Garmok's Mine]] to address [[Xanphina]]'s ancestral quest.

'''What the Council Told the Party:'''
* Maccath is a tiefling sorcerer of the Arcane Brotherhood
* She is the world's foremost expert on dragons
* She has been missing for months
* Last known to be researching white dragons and the Draakhorn in the Sea of Moving Ice
* The Arcane Brotherhood is generally not secretive, so asking around in northern settlements about an Arcane Brotherhood mage should yield information
* Specifically recommended starting in Luskan to gather leads

'''What the Party Knows (but Council may not):'''
* The Draakhorn is actually located at the [[Well of Dragons]] (learned from [[Lord Valtheran]])
* It is being sounded around the clock to call dragons to the Cult
* Even if the Draakhorn's location is known, Maccath may have knowledge about how to destroy it or counter its effects

=== Rewards ===
* Intelligence on the Draakhorn and how to stop or destroy it
* Potential alliance with a powerful sorcerer and dragon expert
* Disruption of the Cult of the Dragon's ability to summon chromatic dragons
* Recognition and support from the Council of Waterdeep

=== Related Quests ===
* [[Find Varram the White]] - Alternative quest path offered by the Council to disrupt the Cult
* [[Investigate Garmok's Mine]] - Quest the party chose to pursue first
* [[Stop the Rise of Tiamat]] - Overarching campaign objective

=== Sessions ===
* [[Session 43 - The Council of Waterdeep (2025-08-31)]] - Quest assigned by the Council
