I was just wondering if there was any source that mentioned what Noumea Drathchuld looks like, particularly circa, say, 1365 DR? Granted, if I get it wrong its pretty easy to say she was in disguise, and it would still work out, but I'd like to know what the "right" answer would be.

| Wasn't she in Elminster's daughter? You could get a description there (if I'm correct). Of course, she could have been spell disguised there <g> |

That's a different Noumea. :)
And Knight, did you check Magic of Faerun or Secrets of the Magister? She has more in the 2nd book then in the current sourcebooks. |

| Yeah, I already read through Secrets of the Magister, and I liked her so much I wanted to Cameo her in my new campaign, but unfortunately I couldn't find a description of what she looked like, only what she did while Magister, which is the more important information . . . |

| She features in Shadows of Doom, but it may not have a complete physical description. |

Well, hmmm. Page 84 of Secrets in the 3rd paragraph from the bottom on the right side has a little about her hair.
I'd say also that the pictures on page 83 and 86 are of her. Course, not sure how accurate they are. |

It seems to me that they would be since in the second one she is holding the two skulls of the two mages she had to kill when she was asked to stab them. |

That was Noumea Cardellith. So, as Kuje noted above, you're thinking of a different Noumea.

KEJR, I also recall Noumea Drathchuld receives a brief mention in The Magister [in the 'Forward' as I recall]. But I don't have the book with me at the moment to check for a description...

<<That was Noumea Cardellith. So, as Kuje noted above, you're thinking of a different <<Noumea.
That was her maiden name. After she met Elminster, she wasn't a maiden any more so she had to choose a new last name.... the dirty old lech <g>.
Seriously though, sorry, didn't notice. |
