I'm extremely intrigued by the Harpell family of the town Longsaddle.Does anyone know if there is a Forgotten Realms book about any of the Harpells. If there is such a book would someone please tell me. Oh, and another thing in a campaign how would one use the Harpell's consistency to blunder so to speak. Thanks for reading this

Ed created Malchor (sp?) and he was written up in the City of Splendors box set, and maybe in one or two of the older Waterdeep related products. RAS also expanded the family in his dark elf novels. (Sorry I forgot which ones, since it's been years since I read the first Drizzt novels.)

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

As far as which books they were in, don't they make an appearance in the Icewind Dale Trilogy? I know they also make an appearance in the Legacy of the Drow series (book three Siege of Darkness). but I'm not exactly sure. its been a while since I've read them as well.

"What's that," asked Mogget.
"Sardines," said Sam. "I knew they were standard rations, so I got a few tins for you."
"What are sardines?" Moggest asked suspiciously. "And why is there a key? Is this some sort of Abhorsen joke?"

The Harpells were in The Streams of Silver from the Icewind Dale of that you are correct. They r also in the Siege of Darkness and Harkle(my personal fave) makes an appearance in the last book of Legacy of the Drow

It's a good thing they're not a family of divine spellcasters, since if one goes by Mr. Salvatore's books, the family has an average Wisdom score of around 5.

Why would this be a problem? That low of a Wisdom score would prevent them from casting spells that were too horrible!
