Portella's question has me wondering if there is a good index of named Chosen lying around anywhere in these vaults...

Only because there is no proper Trickster deity among the human pantheons of the Realms.

We, years ago, once came up with a list but I'm not sure where it might be due to so many forum changes on the Wizard's boards. However, this list: http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wiki/Chosen looks pretty much the same as I remember that old forum thread to be.

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

Isn't the Srinshee also a chosen of mystra and/or the seldarine?

Didn't see her on the list.

Since Chosen was an Epic Destiny that players could pursue in 4e, I'd say there would be quite a few Chosen running around.

Yea, she should be on that list. Wish I knew where that old forum thread could be found but the Wiki has most of them, as I mentioned. :)

In 14xx DR the shades are searching for every choosen the can find and it seems very difficult for them to find many. Telamount ordered Brennus to use is good scrying skills to search forthem and many netheril lords are searching for every hint they can get too.
So I guess a few choosen are common knowledge (or at least known to a lot of people). But most are unknown.

True but none of them were recognized canonically and the Sundering's crop of Chosen weren't anywhere near that kind of power level for the most part.

When life turns it's back on you...sneak attack for extra damage.
