As a young maidservant at Snome Villa in Waterdeep’s North Ward, the common born Trilena captured the heart of Toblen, scion of House Snome, a Waterdhavian noble family whose fortune was built upon brewing, distilling, importing, and exporting alcoholic beverages.

When whispers at the villa told the tale of Toblen’s affections resulting in their maidservant’s swollen belly, Trilena had been cast out of the family’s service, labeled as a lowborn strumpet with designs far above her station. Incensed, Toblen chose love over his noble birthright, forsaking the Snome family name and title for a life with Trilena and their son, Pip.

Leaving Waterdeep behind them with little more than the clothes on their back and a Snome family heirloom (an alchemy jug), the couple eloped and dwelt in Neverwinter for a time before selling Toblen’s heirloom in order to relocate to the newly resettled town of Phandalin. There, far from the intrigues of Waterdeep, Toblen and Trilena build an inn and took a new family name: Stonehill.
