Cloaked Ascendancy

The Cloaked Ascendancy was a group of wizards who attempted to take over the city of Neverwinter in the late 15 century DR.

History
When the Spellplague hit, in 1385 DR, several members of the Many-Starred Cloak were pulled into the Far Realm. One of them, Gyrion, took charge and tried to help them survive. Eventually, four of them managed to find their way out: Gyrion, Nostura, Kabal, and Lukan, though they had all been affected physically and mentally by their time in the Far Realm.

Upon returning to Neverwinter in the late years of the 15 century, they were angered by what they saw as an illegitimate successor to Nasher Alagondar in the form of Dagult Neverember, and attempted to take the city from him by force. To that end, they took charge of the remaining Nashers and recruited heavily for adventurers and others who wished to see Neverember's rule end. In truth, however, their real goal was to open a massive portal to the Far Realm within the city.

Headquarters
The Cloaked Ascendancy operated out of the newly reopened River District of Neverwinter.
