Xonthal's Tower

Xonthal's Tower was a tower in the Western Heartlands that housed the wizard Xonthal after 1361 DR.

History
The tower became famous in the Realms for its unusual magical defenses, including the magical hedge maze that surrounded it.

In 1365–1366 DR, a group of Zhentarim under Hansibal Droun, a shopkeeper of the village near the tower, tried to conquer it for its strategic commercial value. However, Xonthal always defeated them.

Just before the Tyranny of Dragons, the Cult of the Dragon managed to acquire the tower.

Inhabitants
During the Tyranny, the Cult's leaders based at the Tower were the dracolich traditionalists Jorgen Pawl and his lieutenant Iskander.
