Lord's Alliance
The Lords’ Alliance is a confederation of cities and towns up and down the Sword Coast and throughout the North, including (among others) Baldur’s Gate, Mirabar, Mithral Hall, Neverwinter, and Silverymoon. Members of the alliance must come to one another’s aid in times of need, and the organization uses field operatives (diplomats, spies, and assassins) to safeguard its interests.
Waterdeep is one of the most influential and invested members of the Lords’ Alliance. Waterdeep’s Open Lord, Laeral Silverhand, uses spies to keep tabs on adventurers in the city, rewarding those who place Waterdeep’s interests above their own. Laeral employs adventurers as agents of the Lords’ Alliance, among them Jalester Silvermane.
Laeral spends most of her time in the Palace of Waterdeep. Within walking distance of the palace are well-maintained government residences set aside for the use of representatives of other Lords’ Alliance cities and towns.
Lords’ Alliance support comes in these ways:
- City Watch officials are notified that the characters are on “official business” for the Lords’ Alliance and instructed to provide support whenever they can.
- Mirt invites the adventurers to dinner at his dilapidated mansion as a pretense for sharing rumors and imparting pearls of wisdom.
- The characters are granted a brief audience with Laeral Silverhand.
