This guild represents those who slaughter and cut for sale all manner of livestock from ankheg to yeti, although cattle and hogs are more common.
Guild law ensures that meat is properly bled, hung, and smoked or seasoned in certain ways, so that it is as clean and in as good condition as possible. Without exception, the butcheries in business in the wards of Waterdeep are guild members. Many premium restaurants buy only from this guild, as they typically provide the highest quality ages and cuts of meats.
The guild's headquarters is a recently-renovated timber-frame two-story, with a massive multi-level cold cellar for guild members' overstock.
