Okeydoke, hint the fourth.
The source in which this Cook's Tale is told may be older than some, but it still shines. |
My Realms novel, Sandstorm, is now available for ordering. |

Yes! Capnvn, you are correct. "The Bloodrun" rings a bell, but I doubt your question will stand five days! |

I was sure I was going to get this one but then I realised that it's The Twisted Run I was thinking of. |

Looking back at that, I realize that it sounded like I was bragging about how long my question was up, which is not what I meant, sorry! I just meant that I didn't think I'd have a chance to answer yours since I have to wait five days.
And as it happens, what I was thinking was completely off the mark so I wouldn't have got it in any case! I haven't "been up North" yet in my return to the Realms.
Okay, Fillow. What's next? |

Oh, I know who you're talking about now. I don't recall the name, but I know where to look.
But since I don't have another question handy at the moment, I'll leave it alone -- at least until maņana eve. |

So I was going to answer this question, but then it wasn't in the sourcebook I thought it was in... Luckily, I checked the Web Enhancement.
The simply-named Guild of Underdark Guides is described in the first Web Enhancement for Underdark, entitled "Organizations of the Underdark". |

The Sage or Krash will prolly answer this one in five minutes, but we'll go with it anyway. I'm not going to claim obscurity on this one.
This thief, formerly of Amn, has an infectious smile and laughter, and is well-known for her habit of finding great delight in life. Name her. |

Nice!
I don't think it's fair for me to take shot at this one right now though. So I'll leave it to others for the time being. |

Why that sounds like Bronwyn Caradoon from Thornhold! |

Ah, but it's not!

Are you talking of Bronwyn or our mystery thief? I don't believe Bronwyn has ever been described as someone who takes delight in life, and Bronwyn is certainly not from Amn...
No one has broken the code yet, so I may have to give another clue soon. |

Just having fun with ya Wooly one, But Bronwyn is Most assuredly from Amn. She was born there and lived the first part of her life there until she was kidnapped by the Zhents and trained to become quite the skilled counterfeiter of jewelry and coins.
I did not really think she was the answer you were after, but she fits your question

Nope, Bronwyn wasn't born there. I don't think the village she lived in was ever named, but it's near the Dessarin River -- so it's not terribly far from Waterdeep.
Bronwyn did live in Amn for a while, but she wasn't born there. |

I guess I'll have to give another. I already snuck one out there, but no one noticed it.
Our mystery thief is also a member of one of Faerûn's most well-known organizations.

Of course Wooly, we noticed that "our mystery thief has something in common with Bronwyn" but what is it ? Is the second hint the same as the first one ? Or are there two hints in your both posts ?
