Nezznar
(a.k.a. The Black Spider)
Nezznar wore a long purple cloak with a red interior, and wielded a black quarterstaff known as a spider staff.
He was quite intelligent and curious, and had knowledge of the arcane arts. The drow did not break into a combat at any given opportunity, but preferred to first study and understand the motives of potential foes. He would, though, betray his enemies after they had exhausted their usefulness. Nezznar was a skilled wizard, and focused on different schools of magic, from evocation to illusion to abjuration.
The ambitious drow had many spies reaching all the way to the Land of Mulock, as well as several giant spiders, which acted as guards. He was eventually defeated in Wave Echo Cave by the Crimson Eclipse.
History
Circa 1240 EG, the drow promised a share to Iarno Albrek of the Lords' Alliance in exchange for his loyalty and aid. Nezznar was the true leader of the Redbrands, controlling them (as well as the Cragmaw tribe of goblinoids in the hopes of finding Wave Echo Cave and unlocking its secrets while also keeping it a secret for himself. After finding the mine, Nezznar came across two of the Rockseeker brothers, Nundro and Tharden. He slew Tharden, but kept Nundro as a hostage, as he thought the dwarf knew more than the he was letting on. From then on, he focused on getting to the legendary forge, but was set back by hordes of undead, and rooms full of poisonous fungi.
