Renaer Neverember

Renaer Neverember was a noble member of the Neverember family, and son of the Open Lord of Waterdeep, Dagult Neverember.

History
Renaer was born to Dagult Neverember, who served as the Open Lord of Waterdeep. Renaer's mother died in his youth. Renaer began managing his family's extensive property holdings while his father spent time at the palace.

In Nightal of 1479 DR, Renaer was confronted by Laraelra Harsard about suspicious happenings at a property owned by the Neverember family. When he entered the house with Laraelra and her bodyguard Meloon Wardragon to investigate, they were kicked out by Khondar Naomal, who was using the house with the permission of Dagult Neverember. Renaer and friends returned at night and found the Blackstaff's Heir Vajra Safahr, who had been imprisoned and tortured by Khondar beneath the house in a plot to seize control of the city. The group rescued Vajra fled with his companions through a portal in Neverember Manor to Varadras, disused estate outside Waterdeep. Khondar publicly accused Renaer of murdering Vajra.

The still semi-lucid Vajra recovered somewhat at the estate and the group used another portal to travel to Waterdeep where Vajra regained her senses. As Laraelra, Meloon, and Osco Salibuck tried to head Khondar off, Renaer met with his father, the Open Lord, and threatened to reveal Dagult's involvement in Khondar's actions unless Dagult rescinded the charges against Renaer and his friends and allowed Renaer additional autonomy in the Neverember household, including restoring Neverember Manor to its original name Brandarthall. Renaer and Dagult returned to Blackstaff Tower in time to witness Khondar be killed by spectral hounds of the Black Hunt.

With Vajra's approval, a tenday later Renaer founded a group similar to the Moonstars to serve as heroes of the city. The first members of this group included Renaer, Vajra, Laraelra, Meloon, and Eiruk Weskur.
