Neverwinter, often called the “Jewel of the North”, is a city known for its skilled craftsmen and its enduring beauty, which includes lush, enchanted gardens that remain warm throughout the year, thanks to the heat provided by volcanic action underground.
This feature also gives the city its name, as it seemingly experiences perpetual spring weather.
Neverwinter is located on the northwestern coast of the continent Faerûn, along the Sword Coast — a region that encompasses several other notable cities and locations within the Forgotten Realms.
It lies near the Neverwinter Wood, south of the city of Luskan, and north of Waterdeep, making it a pivotal location for trade and politics within the region.
The city has been featured in various Dungeons & Dragons campaign settings, novels, video games, and other media. Notably, it is the setting for the video game Neverwinter Nights and its sequels.
