The Lords Alliance

The Lords’ Alliance is a confederation among the rulers of various northern settlements. The number of members on the Council of Lords, the group’s governing body, shifts depending on the changing status of member cities and political tensions in the region. Currently, the Lords’ Alliance counts these individuals as council members:

Laeral Silverhand, the Open Lord of Waterdeep
Dagult Neverember, Lord Protector of Neverwinter
Taern Hornblade, High Mage of Silverymoon
Ulder Ravengard, Grand Duke of Baldur’s Gate and Marshal of the Flaming Fist
Lady Morwen Daggerford, Duchess of Daggerford
Selin Ramur, Marchion of Mirabar
Dowell Harpell of Longsaddle
Dagnabbet Waybeard, Queen of Mithral Hall
Lord Dauner Ilzimmer of Amphail
Nestra Ruthiol, Waterbaron of Yartar

The Lords’ Alliance includes the strongest mercantile powers of the North. In addition to providing military support and a forum for the peaceful airing of differences, the Alliance has always acted under the principle that communities with common cause that engage in trade are less likely to go to war with one another. By maintaining strong trade ties within the alliance as well as outside it, the Lords’ Alliance helps to keep the peace.
