Lords' Alliance

The Lords' Alliance, also known as the Council of Lords is a partnership of merchant cities from the North and Western Heartlands, Waterdeep, Silverymoon, Neverwinter and other free cities and towns in the region make up the bulk of the organization. It was formed to oppose the growing influence of the Black Network in the North, as well as the Shadow Thieves of Amn who have clawed out a foothold for themselves in Waterdeep once more.

The alliance has in the past hired adventurers to work for them, both in simple gathering of information, or even to raid Zhentarim strongholds and outposts. Local adventurers can quickly gain status, as well as powerful friends by helping the alliance, but can just as easily make enemies of the sinister Zhentarim because of it
