You have to be more descriptive when naming your threads. I thought for sure this meant Waterdeep nobles were to be described in Serpent Kingdoms.

Tren have appeared in previous Realmslore in "The Dream Spheres" (as noted above), in "Drizzt Do'Urden's Guide to the Underdark" (down around the Lake of Steam), and in one of the 2e FR compendiums, IIRC.

They are not a major part of "Serpent Kingdoms," but they do get brief mention and a monster write-up.

I'm glad to see them since I recall their horrific appearances in Elaine Cunningham's novel.

Indeed, the Tren show up as early as 1991, in the Forgotten Realms Monstrous Compendium Appendix (MC11). I was both surprised and delighted to hear that they'd be updated in Serpent Kingdoms, for no other reason than that they are an interesting monster type both native to FR and easily transported to other worlds.

Hooray!

Now that, as they say, would be telling.

Well, that's a start. At least you did not say something like, "I cannot confirm or deny another contributor did the write up."
