The Underbelly is an underground part of Dalaran. You can PvP, pet-battle, fish, buy high rank profession recipes there. There is also an achievement that grants you [item=138387] mount - Underbelly Tycoon. A lot of quests send you into the Underbelly so you better be familiar with how things work or you'll be ganked.
There are three entrances into The Underbelly - sewers near Krosus Landing and The Violet Citadel, there is also a well near the bank which teleports you into random location in sewers.
Zone has it's own currency - [currency=1149]. Almost every activity in underbelly is connected with this currency. You can spend it on a lot of useful things from pet battles to different high rank profession recipes.
How to get [currency=1149]:
- PvP
When you enter Underbelly you get [spell=192229] or [spell=192221] debuff. [spell=192229] means the guards are on their posts and no PvP is allowed. [spell=192221] means there is no guards and Underbelly becomes free for all PvP zone. During that time you can farm Sightless Eyes by killing other players, you get from 15 to 50 Eyes for each kill.
Guard Captain [npc=97359] is the one controlling the guards. You can bribe him to call off guards or call them back for 50 Sightless Eyes. You can even hire personal guard if guards are not on their posts for 5 gold and you'll not be flagged for PvP.- Mobs

There are mini-bosses that will spawn when you have [spell=192229] debuff which means the guards are on their posts and no PvP is allowed. You'll get 50-90 eyes for each boss.
You can double the number of eyes everyone gets from bosses by using [item=139427] on them, you have to use it when the boss has more than 90% health. It increases the health of the boss by 200% and damage by 50%.
All mini-bosses scale their health based on the number of players attacking them.BossNoteVideo[npc=97587]Fire mage, don't stand in aoehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XzKsMZuKdPA[npc=97390]walking in stealthhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hy9nYze2P78[npc=97388]A demon near warlock class hallhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9rf8gVbFnU[npc=97380]Giant rat in the main hallhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfL0uWP9oWE[npc=97387]Mana fiend from the sewer pipehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woF8LNE_14A[npc=97381]Giant bat in the main hallhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZycU6BaWA8[npc=97384]Shark in Black Market watershttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEYGinl1rAY[npc=97589]Spawns lots of spidershttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ia45srdb0_E

When the guards in the Underbelly are bribed, they seem to be off duty for 5 mins.
This area is pretty ridiculous, If you are down here for anything other than PvP. you will die within 10 seconds of the guards going. When you get to the staging area after presumably dying, and the guards are still missing, you can buy a bodyguard for 5g from [npc=97359] which will stop you being PvP enabled.
