Harpers of Waterdeep

Open Harper Missions

The following are unassigned or open missions for the Harpers of Waterdeep.

The Red Book

Contact: Lady Remallia Haventree
Mission: Lady Remallia seeks a book for the Harpers' library. It is a rare book, printed over a hundred years ago, called the Red Book of a Thayvian Mage, by Thaelrythyn of Thay. Though not itself magical, it is a book of rare knowledge of both magical formulas and schema, and will greatly enhance the library.

Reward: Remallia is offering 100gp plus the imbuement of the Harper's pin with the Arcane (Greater) quality, allowing the bearer to cast detect magic once per long rest. The Harper's cell also gain +2 Connections investment.

Caravans of the Delimbyr Vale

Contact: Lady Remallia Haventree
Mission: Lady Remallia is concerned about some attacks on caravans passing through the Delimbyr Vale. She needs Harpers to find caravans who are passing through there who would be amenable to allowing one of her agents to accompany them. They are willing to provide additional fighting support, but they are fact-finding above all. Find a caravan-master and convince them to take on an additional sell-sword; you may tell them the agent is a Harper if you deem them trustworthy.

Reward: Remallia is offering 50gp. The Harper's Cel also gains +1 Connections investment.

Identifying Zhentarim

Contact: Lady Remallia Haventree
Mission: Waterdeep's Harpers need to keep tabs on the local Zhentarim agents. If a Harper discovers the identity of a Zhentarim agent, they should bring it to Lady Remallia immediately.
Reward: Harper Renown +1, plus 100gp. The Harper's Cell gains +2 Connections investment.

Wise Owls

Though there is at least one other Wise Owl who operates out of Waterdeep, the Lady Remallia is the only one of them who operates with anything like openness.

Lady Remallia Haventree Wise Owl (Rank 38) Though she is a sun elf, Lady Remallia is also the defacto matriarch of House Ulbrinter. She is also an important figure among the local Harpers and indeed, throughout the North, acting as a liaison with the Lords' Alliance. In her role as Wise Owl, the Waterdhavian cells report to her. She also maintains the Harper arcane library and workshop in Waterdeep, so that the Harpwrights of the city also work for her in that capacity.

Waterdhavian Cells

Dusken Glade Cell (Waterdeep)

Denabria Faez Brightcandle (Rank 12) Denabria is not what most folk think of when they think of the Harpers. Most of her career as one of Those Who Harp has been defined by taking on roles and duties that take advantage of that. She now owns the Dusken Glade Inn, which she uses as the base of operations for the Dusken Glade Cell, over which she is the Brightcandle.

Solitary Agents

	Melila Mentor (Rank 22) A lythari elf and ranger, Melila has been a Harper for quite a number of years at this point, on the verge of being a Master Harper. She often wanders great distances, having traveled the whole of Faerûn at one time or another, though these decades she tends to remain all along western Faerûn from Calimshan to the North, including the island realms of the Sea of Swords. She has been sticking around Waterdeep and its environs a little lately, training up a pair of apprentices, although they have received their pins now, and it is clear her wanderlust is boiling up within her once more.
	Zavelinda Mentor (Rank 11) Denabria's ladylove is a far-wanderer and restless soul. They met while on mission together in Neverwinter ten years ago, and have been romantically involved every since. Zavelinda's missions still frequently require her to go far afield, and Denabria always waits for her to return. Zavelinda is a monk of some skill.
	Eldroth Karn Mentor (Rank 8) A relatively young half-elven priest of Silvanus, Eldroth's years of ranging about the North are over. These days he helps to tend the shrine to Silvanus at the Shrines of Nature and to help teach younger Harpers the Code. Though he does not wield magic of any sort, Eldroth is a fine archer.
	Fendus Bern Agent (Rank 5) A courier and Harpsinger, Fendus is an old hand at travel alone, and the dangers thereof. He is a swordsman of some note, and an even better harpist. Fendus was recently killed by members of the Old Church of Bane seeking the Tyrantstone he was bringing to Denabria, but he was avenged and his remains recovered by the Dusken Glade Cell.
