The Earthroot is a vast domain in the Underdark. Since it lies beneath the Unapproachable East - burried deep below Thay and the Sunrise Mountains few people know of its existences and even less explorers have mapped its tunnels and caves.
In its northern reaches, it is a frigid area containing numerous ice formations and caves. It southern portions extend beneath Raurin, the Dust Desert.
The Earthroot is home to the Drow society of Undrek'Thoz, as well as the duergar realm of Fraaszummdin. It also harbours the ruins of the ancient empires of Nar, Raumathar and Imaskar once built in and around the region of the Dust Desert. These empires rank among the oldest human civilizations of Faerun. The most mysterious and greatest hidden realm in the Earthroot is the realm of Deep Imaskar itself. It lies below the Endless Wastes in the most eastern part of the Earthroot.
