Hails, Good Sages!
I'm preparing to run a few sessions in Waterdeep (a first for me) and am seeking resources that describe the locales outside, but near the city.
From the novels, I know there are lots of manors scattered near and far but I suppose there also must be a few outlying villages. Any hooks would be useful too. (Perhaps what to expect in the Rat Hills, for example.) Here, I refer to places within a day's travel from the gates, not Daggerford or Goldenfields.
I own a copy of the 3.5 City of Splendors accessory, and am willing to pick up used/PDFs of 1st and 2nd edition products. I can't seem to recall which ones (if any) detailed what I'm looking for.
Any help is welcomed.

Also the Environs of Waterdeep article in Issue 128 of DRAGON, by (who else?) Ed Greenwood. He later detailed the Stag Lass ceremony in one of his far more recent "New Adventures of Volo" DRAGON columns.

You'll find that parts of Volo's Guide to the North and The North boxed set provide brief tidbits on the immediate areas around the City of Splendors.
There's bits in Volo's Guide to the Sword Coast too, that may prove useful.

It was the second one -- the fabled second web enhancement that we waited several months for.

Aelf,
I recall a small forested area being described not far from the city in the novel Blackstaff. |
