There's a shrine of Mask under a mask shop named Nurneene's Marvelous Masks in Waterdeep. This place is detailed in Dragon #321, by Ed Greenwood. |

Thank you!
Sceptic also mentioned the shrine. Do you know where in the city it is located? I do not have that issue of Dragon (typical, the one I did not get), and I could not find it in the CoS pdf (the old box).
Is it mentioned in the new book? (It has not arrived yet) |

On the east side of the Street of Bells in Castle Ward. It has a big black mask which just looks like Mask's symbol in the front window, so you will never miss it anyway...
The leader cleric and the shop-owner is Nurneene (NE female human Clr6/Exp6/Rog1).
And I don't have new Waterdeep. |

Great stuff Any word on her age and looks? She should fit perfect for my game. The mask cleric wants to establish her own temple in the city, and a rivaling cleric is just perfect.
...in a mask shop no less. Ed is a genious
Again, thank you, thank you, thank you! |

She looks young and graceful. White skin, greens eyes, and husky voice. A patient diplomat against hard-to-please customers (among others) too. And I think she keeps her age a secret even to old EL.
You're welcome! |

Whatever they are, they're weaker than my Nouveau Netherese Sceptre of Ultra-Powerful NPC Slaying! Seriously, though, if the PCs see (or hear of) someone being pocket-picked or purse-cut, they should realize that they, too are vulnerable. If you are using a random table to determine the likelihood of someone in a crowd being robbed, the PCs should have an equal chance of being victimized as others of their wealth. If they fail to take appropriate measures, that's their problem. If they do, then they should be immune to low-level thieves (or at least catch them in the act). As for burgling -- did they think that the nine-headed hydra and 2000 orcs they slaughtered to get that chest of gold were adequate to protect it? Obviously not, if they were able to seize it! The time has come for the PCs to start devising protections for their wealth or else call in an expert. (I have a 16th level character with rogue skills "off the chart" who has left a calling card and then hired himself out as a security contractor, guaranteeing that no one of lesser ability will be able to break in where he did, bonding himself for the value of the items protected, but with the caveat that if they are stolen and he pays for them, the stolen goods belong to him and he is authorized to recover them, just as would be an insurance company. He makes it plain, of course, that he will be extraordinarily displeased if one of his customers files a phoney claim.... ) |
I have a mouth, but I am in a library and must not scream.

No not much. However, I did put it somewhere on the map.
See "C84". (Or close to that, some of the numbers changed in editing.)

Found it Excellent stuff.
I finally got City of Splendors: Waterdeep a couple of days ago, and even if I have only begun to skim the surface of this great book, I can tell the cleric of Mask has lots to work with between the clerics of Tyr on one hand, and the clerics of Shar on the other.
I loved the religion section. Can I assume that the religons not covered are significantly smaller than those included?
Waterdeep seems darker and more dangerous than I remember it, which suits me just fine. More adventure opportunities this way. |

Yeah, it's a 3E change, but a nice one. |

I just wanted to let you folks know that the introduction of Nurneene was a success. The mask shop brought grins on the players' faces (so obvious, and yet so clever), and the thought of a competing cleric of Mask in the middle of Waterdeep opened another layer of intrigue to the game.
Your help was very helpful |
