THE DOOM RAIDERS
The Doom Raiders were five unscrupulous adventurers
who liked to plunder lich lairs (called "dooms" by some).
They gave up adventuring to join the Black Network
and came to Waterdeep three years ago with plans to
establish a Zhentarim foothold in the city. In that time,
they have forged alliances with various nobles and
guilds and run afoul of others, all the while fending off
Harper spies.DAVIL STARSONG
Within the Waterdeep division of the Black Network,
Davil is accorded the title of Master of Opportunities
and Negotiations because he's good at sniffing out lucra-
tive business deals, and he makes friends easily.
Like many sun elves, Davi! has a n affinity for magic
and is gifted with the kind of patience that comes with
a long life span. Unlike most, he's not the least bit
pretentious or aloof. He keeps a room at the Yawning
Portal and does all his business in the establishme nt's
taproom. He negotiates deals with grace and aplomb,
even while drunk, and uses an elven lute as a spell-
casting focus.
Davit can put the characters in contact with other
leaders of the Black Network's Waterdeep division,
namely Istrid Horn (if they need a loan), Skeemo Weird-
bottle (if they need magic), Tashlyn Yafeera (if they need
weapons or mercenaries), and Ziraj the Hunter (if they
need a highly skilled assassin).
