Vigilent Order

The Vigilent Order is a loosely organized society in Waterdeep dedicated to furthering the ends of the god Asmodeus. In the years prior to 1480 DR, the Vigilent Order was nearly destroyed by the deva Jinnaoth Ir'Gadohn who ruthlessly hunted down members of the Order. Until fairly recently, most members of the Order were poor, desperate people who hoped to improve their situation through Asmodeus' power. The Order began recruiting members of Waterdeep's nobility who wanted more wealth and power. The Order was one of the groups attempting to complete the ritual of the First Flensing which would have created a gateway for Asmodeus to the Prime Material Plane.
