Carp Alderleaf was a young halfling boy that lived in Phandalin.[1]

Description[]

The lad of ten years aspired to become an adventurer. He had high spirits and enjoyed playing in the nearby woods.[1]

Relationships[]

He was friends with Pip Stonehill, and shared secrets with him.[1]

History[]

Circa 1491 DR,[note 1] Carp discovered a secret tunnel by chance. He saw Redbrands come out of it, and rendezvous with others, leading him to believe the bandits had a base under the Tresendar Manor. Carp managed to sneak off without being caught.[1]

Appendix[]

Notes[]

  1. Pages 30‒31 of Lost Mine of Phandelver describe the eruption of Mount Hotenow (1451 DR) as occurring "30 years ago", which would place the adventure in 1481 DR. When the adventure was later remade into Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk, this 30 year time frame was kept (pages 50 & 53). However, pages 103 and 179 of Acquisitions Incorporated, a source published after the former, state that the events described in the adventure happen five years after both Lost Mine of Phandelver and Princes of the Apocalypse. Since the latter is explicitly set in 1491 DR, and considering this answer by Ed Greenwood about dating the adventure, this wiki will use 1491 DR for events related to both versions of the adventure.
