Davil Starsong (pronounced: DAH-vil) is a Sun Elf agent of The Black Network, operating within the city of Waterdeep. He is known to keep a room at The Yawning Portal, conducting all his business in the taproom.
History
Davil was once an adventurer but together with his adventuring companions he decided to join The Black Network. In the year 1489 DR, they were directed to establish a foothold in Waterdeep.
In 1492 DR, Davil was seen riding a carriage with a Half-Orc bodyguard, Yagra Strongfist , in the Dock Ward (Waterdeep). It was said he could put people he favored into contact with other acquaintances from the Black Network, who in turn provided profitable loans, sold magic, weapons, mercenaries, and even arranged assassinations.
After noticing the absence and strange behavior of one of his fellow Black Network Commanders, Davil started an investigation and discovered that this commander had been taken out by Skálmöld who had been living his life for a few months now. He wasn't very upset at this development, seeing as there had started to develop a rift between the more honourable members of their Black Network in Waterdeep and those who would use their positions to do evil just for the sake of it, and the commander Skálmöld killed was known to lead a group of their worst members. He later sent a message in the form of a winged snaked to Skálmöld inviting him and The Trollskull Crushers for a meeting in the Yawning Portal. During this meeting he explained to the party that he would consider letting them join the Black Network if they would take care of a quick job for him. There had apparently been a string of Elven murders in the Dock Ward. The Party managed to capture the one responsible.
