Harpers

return to Factions

The Harpers are a secretive organization operating in Northwest Faerun dedicated to ward against tyrany and to protect the liberties of the people. They also were keen on preserving history and the arts of old and new.

Operations
The Harpers are a loose collective of like-minded idealists who believe in fairness and liberty for all, opposing tyrany and exploitation wherever possible. Harpers prefer to work outside the spotlight and the conventional ways of civilization, remaining in the shadows while observing and making precise incursions to achieve their goals.

Operating in Northwest Faerun, the Harpers are neither allied nor opposed to the ruling faction: the Lord's Alliance. The Harpers often pass critical information to agents of the Lord's Alliance, making the militaries of the alliance handle threats too big for the Harpers to handle themselves.

Most Harpers are Elves and Humans allied to Elvenkind, and as such most Harpers do enjoy the decentralised government of Northwest Faerun in 1770 DR. A Fear among Harper's is the establishment of a human kingdom spanning the region, as it could potentially weaken the liberties of both the citizens of the Lord's Alliance, and threaten the very survival of the elven communities remaining in the region.
