Laeral Silverhand

Formerly known as the Lady Mage of Waterdeep. Together with her partner Khelben "Blackstaff" Arunsun they lead the Moonstars, a dissident faction of the Harpers. She is opposed to behind-doors dealings and will avoid open war at any costs...something learned in her youth.
She has worked to remove the Zhentarim from Faerun. She is known to be at least two hundred years old - and a very powerful wizard.
