Could someone provide me with the sources where I may be able to find out more information on Trobriand? Has he had any mention post-Spellplague? Also, does anyone know what his wizard's sigil looks like?

Page 28 of that 3.5 book, which presents him as a Male Tethyrian human wizard 12/techsmith 5/archmage 1 (CR 18; 2e puts him as an 18th level wizard). We get a few paragraphs of 1370's info on him, but no mention of his sigil, and I haven't heard him referenced post-Spellplague.

One usually has far more to fear from the soft-spoken wizard with a blade and well-worn boots than from the boisterous one in the ivory tower.

These guys have it- the most comprehensive write-up that I can think of is in CoS:W, along with Muiral the Misshapen. I love these two whacky guys!

I've used him as a NPC before. He's pretty awesome.

As for in my published work . . . well, there are plans. That's all I'm saying.

I guess I will be picking up the Neverwinter Guide when it come out. When will it be released this year?

I totally made it sound like the NWCG is going to have Trobriand in it, didn't I?

Nay, nay, good sir, I was referring to OTHER plans--for my future work, about which I've nothing more to say or tease except that I'm very excited about it, and hope you will be as well.

And I don't know of a firm release date, but since the NWCG was announced for Fall of 2011, I have suspected we're looking at a GenCon launch.

He also features to an extent in Expedition to Undermountain, but I think Ruins of Undermountain II provides better lore, although it's been many a year since I read it.
