Piergeiron Paladinson

Piergeiron the Paladinson is the current Open Lord of Waterdeep who lives in Piergeiron's Palace in Waterdeep. Usually, the identities of the Lords of Waterdeep are concealed from the people, but Piergeiron is one of only four whose identities are known, the others being Ahghairon, Baeron and Lhestyn. Piergeiron is personally bodyguarded by Madeiron Sunderstone.

Appearance
Piergeiron is tall, muscular and handsome with slightly greying hair.

Personality
Piergeiron does not speak very often and when he does, he speaks very slowly. This has led to some of those around him nicknaming him "the Thickskull," although never in his presence.

Relatives
Piergerion's father Athar, "the Shining Knight", was famed for slaying the great red wyrm Kistarianth the Red. Decades later, during Halaster's Higharvestide, Piergeiron would slay Kistarianth himself when the dragon rose again as a dracolich. Piergeiron was married to Maethiira, but she died in 1344 DR, leaving him with one daughter, Aleena Paladinstar, who left Waterdeep to explore the planes.

Background
Piergeiron became the Open Lord of Waterdeep in 1314 DR and as of 1374 DR, maintains this position.
