Harpers

Founded in 324 DR, the Harpers are a covert network that protects the innocent, the weak, and the poor from the shadows. They pride themselves on being incorruptible, rarely noticed by powerful tyrants, rulers or others with evil intent. Their symbol is comprised of a silver harp and crescent moon, set upon a field of black or royal blue.   Individual Harper normally agents operate alone and they rarely operate openly. When there is no other choice however, there is always another Harper in the shadows ready to aid at a moments notice. Harper bonds are deep, unbreakable friendships.   They know that knowledge is power, so gathering intelligence beforehand is their primary strategy. They rely on networks of informants and access to magical aid, often from powerful items they themselves kept out of evil hands. Agents use various guises and identities to gain access to carefully guarded secrets such as ancestral maps, buried cities, and mages’ keeps. Veteran members have access to secret caches of knowledge stashed all over Faerûn, along with trusted sources in every major town and city.
