how you been? Hope you’re doing well.
I have a Neverwinter question: besides the Tschavarz (that are mentioned in the Cold Steel and Secrets novella) and the Neverembers, which other noble families live in Neverwinter around 1480 DR? Did the Babrises (from the Drizzt Neverwinter novels) survive the destruction of the city?
I hope you can help me with this one!— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) March 3, 2020

Yes, all of the Babrises survived what befell Neverwinter.
As of 1480 DR, no* noble families make their collective homes, or bases, in Neverwinter, but there are more than a dozen individual nobles (including some from 2)
…Waterdhavian families) resident in the city. They keep low profiles, not ostentatiously spending or riding about in coaches with servants as outriders or hosting large public revels, and not even using their titles in…#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) March 3, 2020

…political.
They include Eltarr Roaringhorn (of the Waterdeep AND Suzail Roaringhorns), Belthrond Thione (of the Tethyrian Thiones, or so he claims; some doubt his lineage), and of longtime families of Neverwinter considered 5)
…noble: Ammacastur Thaland, Melarra Yysabroe (a widow) and her teenaged daughters Immeira and Daunchalace, and the patrician, dabbler-in-investments (and quite possibly as tough and devious a man as Neverember) Teladror Melvaeraghost.#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) March 3, 2020
* = not counting Neverember and the Tschavarz, as you said.#Realmslore

Thanks a lot. So, mostly Waterdhavian families. Are there any Neveren families from the time Neverwinter was a kingdom? Or is this NDA’d? (Sorry, my mind was in Spanish). Oh, yes, there are Neveren noble family INDIVIDUALS living low-profile in the city, but the main family mansions (with lots of family in residence) are elsewhere.#Realmslore
