Zelenn the White

Oldest (most likely) of the leaders of the Arcane Brotherhood, lived in Neverwinter long before the Spellplague and has strong ties to Dagult Neverember.

Her long life makes her extremely patient and calm in her actions - starkly contrasting the urgency of the other (impatient) leaders, which leads to suggestions she is ineffective, taking too long to do things and should be replaced.

Neverwinter's recent rebuilding and rise and the past Luskan-Neverwinter conflicts finding peace make her connections extremely valuable in making sure the Arcane Brotherhood can influence if not control its leaders.

Her history marks her an enemy of Thay, the Zhentarim, Cult of the Dragon and the Hidden Lords of Waterdeep.

Assigned as envoy to Ship Kurth (and somewhat secretly, a trusted ally of the Bregan D'aerthe).
