Common huckster and starmaker, the agent of Signet the Significant. He organized the Signet '04 tour, where Signet met some of the adventurers who would form the New Significants, the group of which Naz is a member. He has some ability to charm people into agreeing with him.

Nebiros
Necropolis
Undead realm beneath Annwych, recently opened by the mad priestess Corinna and eventually resealed by Rhynwa and Luthien.
The city that I saved, all those years ago, as one of my first heroic deeds. To be honest, I'm still not quite sure how I managed it. Still, when I arrived, they were cheering for their Savior, their half-elven thief of glory. It took me a second to realize that I, in fact, was a half-elven thief. Look at my pointed ears. Look, I'll steal something.
--Signet
I am, in fact, the one and only true Savior of Neporris. I was the one who killed the Vampire who held the whole city in its thrall. Kynvelyn stole the credit, of course, like he steals everything, but I truly deserve it.
The largest of the Dark Islands off the western coast of the Doomlands, now inhabited by immigrants from the world of Gila. (Click here for a map.)

All I know is that the Brotherhood of Gila have moved into the Doomlands. Their nation they call New Gila. Personally, I don't trust them. Why? I'd rather not comment on that.
The Nylevian city of Lianth under the new guidance of the Objectivist philosopher Randall Thrayn.

Now that's one powerful ass.

Nina
Tilas old apprentice and one of the few members of her guild to survive the Madness. Tila brought the young thief with her to Javin, and she is currently serving as her ambassador to New Trade.
A member of the Ravagers, upon the defeat of Malcar, she surrendered and in return for her freedom, swore a non-violence pact with the
Sewer Tour.
--Who's Who V1
Norna is a piece of work, let me tell you. She rejoined our numbers when fucking Ragnarok turned everything upside
down--not that she RIDES with us, or does anything ELSE she's supposed to, no, she wanders around the fucking sphere pursuing her own goals
with the Valkyrie powers now. We're sworn not to kill each other, of course, but the next time I see her I am going to kick her ASS.
--Sigrid of the Valkyrie
Don't you wish all villains would buy you dinner and pay your hotel tab, though?
--Ebreth Tor
Variously known as Norna of the Skeins or the Fallen Valkyrie, Norna was a Valkyrie who broke ranks with her sisters under unknown
circumstances and joined a mercenary group called the Ravagers. Defeated by the Sewer Tour on one occasion, she swore an oath not to harm
any of them again, which she honorably upheld. Absent from the Valkyrie at the time of Ragnarok, Norna lost much of her sanity, but still managed,
with the help of some time-travelers and an inordinately patient Flicker and Luthien, to avert the destruction of the Valkyrie. She then, in classic
Wagnerian fashion, died.
A misnomer, for this partially settled wilderness lies in the center of the continent. At one time, though, this was as far north as Nylevians could voyage, due to the Wall erected by Lord Warp, and it has been known as the Northlands ever since. (Click here for a map.)

A sleazy, hedonistic elf from Liratyn in the employ of John Tucson. Nox is apparently rather attracted to Vas, to the latters embarrassment.
--Who's Who V2
But I am NOT attracted to him. Ebreth did the world a favor by relieving him of one of his lecherous hands; if ever we meet again, I will be sure
to finish the job myself.
A charming werewolf detective with the LSRIA, he joined the Sewer Tour when they intersected in their missions against the Huntsman. Needing to recover the lycanthropic magic, he accompanied the party, aiding
it against the Giants and Malcar. After returning, he was kidnapped by the Web to use against the Sewer Tour, but before he could be broken, the Tour rescued him. He helped them find the City on the Edge of Forever, and is now back working for the LSRIA.
--Who's Who V1
There's a wolf where? (Sorry ole buddy. Just had to say that one more time.) Noyarc is a cool guy, good hair and a slick operator. Plus, his name spelled backwards is "crayon". It doesn't get keener than that.
--Schneider
Nth, Prime Vizier
Prime Vizier of the Brotherhood of Gila, he was killed by the Sewer Tour during their rescue of Palmer Khan.
This large southern country is primarily a loosely feudal network of small to large towns, each presided over by an hereditary lord or elected mayor. Traditionally Nylevian towns have owed their allegiance to the Duke of Lianth; there is no one filling that position at present, though, and most Nylevian townships are cautiously proceeding on their own. The bravery of Nylevian mercenaries and heroes is famed across Ataniel. (Click here for a map.)
--from the Reference Almanac of Ataniel, 813
Four stars. Not the most exciting of travel destinations, but there's a lot to be done here, and few real drawbacks. The best bar on Ataniel, the Mithril Dagger Inn, is in Lianth.
