Ziraj the Hunter (pronounced: /zɪərˈɔːdʒ/ zeer-AWJ[2]) was a half-orc agent of the Zhentarim, operating within the city of Waterdeep during the late 15th century DR.[1]
Personality
A taciturn man, Ziraj would only kill a target if asked to by one of his friends.[1]
Abilities
Ziraj was a master archer and a skilled assassin.[1]
Possessions
He carried an oversized bow, with which he fired equally oversized arrows.[1]
Relationships
Ziraj was a member of the Doom Raiders adventuring company. He and his former companions composed the leadership of the Zhentarim of Waterdeep.[1] After Ziraj saved the life of Fala Lefaliir, they became friends. Ziraj frequently visited Fala, who kept a room reserved for him.[3]
History
Ziraj was once an adventurer but together with his adventuring companions he decided to join the Zhentarim.[4] In 1489 DR, Ziraj and his allies were sent to establish a Zhent foothold in Waterdeep.[5]
In 1492 DR,[note 1] Ziraj was seen riding a carriage with Davil Starsong in the Dock Ward of Waterdeep.[6]
Appendix
Notes
- ↑ Canon material does not provide a year for the events described in Waterdeep: Dragon Heist, but Christopher Perkins answered a question via Twitter and stated the year was 1492 DR. Corroborating this, Dragon Heist page 20 refers to events of Death Masks (set in 1491 DR) as being "last year". Unless a canon source contradicts this assertion, this wiki will use 1492 DR for events related to this sourcebook and Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage (which is referenced on pages 5 and 98 of Dragon Heist).
