Watchrun Alley

Watchrun Alley is located in Dock Ward, Waterdeep.

This northeast/southwest route links Nelnuk’'s Walk with Redcloak Lane and Gut Alley and gets its name from its frequent use by the city watch and the city guard to hurry across this part of Dock Ward. Being in the path of a running (or mounted, and charging!) patrol is itself a danger— - and carters at times race each other along this route.

Thieves and cruel pranksters have been known to stretch tripwires and stranglewires across this alley by night. It is common knowledge in the ward that major gangs in this area have hired eyes watching this route to keep track of the city guard and the city watch.
