## Villains
### Zhentarim (Manshoon)
A clone of the wizard Manshoon, one of the founders of 
the Zhentarim, is hiding in Waterdeep. He wants to rule 
the city, by claiming the cache of dragons and by using 
that wealth to bribe the Masked Lords into making him 
the new Open Lord. He also wants to regain control of 
the Black Network.

Manshoon lurks in Kolat Towers, a 
pair of wizards' towers in the Trades Ward. This residence is described in chapter 8. 
Manshoon creates copies of himself using the simulacrum spell and takes great pains to conceal his identity, 
since his success hinges on not attracting the attention 
of others who would seek to thwart him before his plans 
come to fruition. Manshoon avoids unnecessary confrontations with adventurers; only those who enter his 
extradimensional sanctum are likely to incur his wrath.

### Xanathar
Xanatharisa paranoid, megalomaniacal beholder crime 
lord whose goal is to wipe out anyone it perceives as a 
Zhentarim operative or sympathizer, retrieve the Stone 
of Golorr, and secure the cache of dragons. Its base is a 
dungeon under Skullport, a subterranean settlement beneath Waterdeep. This lair is described in chapter 5.

Xanathar has a healthy fear of Laeral Silverhand and 
is inclined to spare those in her employ, to avoid provoking a conflict with Waterdeep's Open Lord. Adventurers 
who incur the wrath of the beholder can use its fear of 
Laeral to escape certain death.

### Jarlaxle Baenre
Jarlaxle Baenre is a drow swashbuckler and the secret 
lord of Luskan, the City of Sails. Jarlaxle plans to use 
the cache of dragons to buy his way into the Lords' 
Alliance, a confederation of cities and towns that band 
together against common threats. Jarlaxle also wants 
the dragonstaff of Ahghairon for leverage in his negotiations. In the magical guise of a human sea captain 
named Zardoz Zord, Jarlaxle runs a traveling carnival 
called the Sea Maidens Faire and lairs aboard a ship in 
Waterdeep's harbor that has a submarine (the Scarlet 
Marpenoth) underneath it, as described in chapter 7.

jarlaxle delights in thwarting his enemies, enjoys the 
complications that arise when adventurers try to meddle 
in his affairs, and loves to see the looks on their faces 
when he finally gets the better of them. He doesn't suffer 
fools who threaten him, however. If forced into a violent 
confrontation, he swiftly and brutally kills someone to 
make an example of them and then walks off.

### Cassalanters
Victoro and Ammalia Cassalanter are Waterdavian nobles and secret devil worshipers. The Cassalanters plan 
to use the cache of dragons to buy back the souls of their 
children, which they traded to Asmodeus for power.

Their estate, Cassalanter Villa, has a temple of Asmodeus hidden underneath it, as described in chapter 6. 
The Cassalanters try to misdirect and discredit the 
characters rather than murder them. Victoro and Ammalia rely on their noble status to protect them, and the 
last thing they want is the City Watch on their doorstep.
