Zhentarim

The Zhentarim, previously known as the Black Network, is a mercenary company and greater mercantile organization in Faerûn. Over their 200 years of existence, they have had a storied history as a cadre of self-serving thieves, spies, assassins and malevolent wizards, who for a time, were indentured by their leaders to serve dark gods Bane and Cyric.

The types of commodities they smuggle are poisons, drugs, contraband goods, and antiques. They formerly have dealth in slavery but the group abolished this practice publicly in 1412 DR.
