Xanathar's Guild

The remnants of the old thieves' guilds of Waterdeep were unified into a single, powerful organization by a strange and charismatic beholder who calls himself the Xanathar. The Xanathar deals primarily in slavery, but also has his eyestalks in the trade of drugs, extortion, blackmail, gambling, and the acquisition and sale of smuggled magical goods. The Xanathar Thieves' Guild operates out of Skullport, but has agents hidden in Trustenfall above, if one knows where to look.
