Watch of Waterdeep

Watch of Waterdeep

A Waterdeep Classics Sourcebook

By Joseph Carriker

“Lend me the wit of the Blackstaff, o gods, and where that fails me, give me the patience of a Watchman.”

– from “Waterdhavian Sayings,” published 1356 DR, editor unknown

The City of Splendors can be a rough place, with adventurers, sailors, criminals, barbarians, and even a smattering of fell beasts walking its streets, causing all manner of mayhem. We are proud to present the shining light of order in these wild streets, the Watch of Waterdeep! This sourcebook contains:

• The hierarchy of the Waterdhavian Watch, from the lowliest 'prentice Watch to the rank held by the Open Lord of Waterdeep!
• Uniforms, traditions, and everything else you need to depict these stalwart defenders, whether as a player character or as NPCs.
• Stat blocks for a full Watch Patrol, including a Watch-wizard to keep the peace.
