  • Manshoon
rdfs:comment
  • For years Manshoon was the lord of Zhentil Keep and leader of the Zhentarim. Completely fitting the archetype of the sly-tongued, sinister and decadent master spellcaster, Manshoon ruthlessly crushed revolts within his own ranks of the Black Network, easily slaughtered his rivals and weeded the weak out of the ranks of the young and ambitions by sending upstarts on nigh-impossible suicide missions. Hated and mistrusted by Fzoul, Manshoon manipulated him much as he did all others - remaining arrogant, untouchable in his power and faintly amused by it all.
  • Manshoon was the founder of the Zhentarim, also known as the Black Network, until he was "slain" by Fzoul Chembryl, his ally, and Lord Orgauth in 1370 DR. However, it transpired that Manshoon had created a dozen or more clones that the murderous duo then found themselves facing.

As Fzoul prepared to face a clone of Manshoon upon his death, he discovered that a dozen of clones had in fact awakened. This spawned the "Manshoon wars" as each clone was programmed to destroy the other ones. To this day, only 3 clones subsist, having overcome their impulse. The one who has rejoined the Zhentarim (under the orders of Chembryl) is considered the true Manshoon.

  • For years Manshoon was the lord of Zhentil Keep and leader of the Zhentarim. Completely fitting the archetype of the sly-tongued, sinister and decadent master spellcaster, Manshoon ruthlessly crushed revolts within his own ranks of the Black Network, easily slaughtered his rivals and weeded the weak out of the ranks of the young and ambitions by sending upstarts on nigh-impossible suicide missions.

Manshoon is the founder of the Zhentarim and was once ruler of the black network, but was overthrown and killed by Fzoul Chembryl in a coup. As Fzoul prepared to face a clone of Manshoon upon his death, he discovered that a dozen of clones had in fact awakened. This spawned the "Manshoon wars" as each clone was programmed to destroy the other ones. To this day, only 3 clones subsist, having overcome their impulse. The one who has rejoined the Zhentarim (under the orders of Chembryl) is considered the true Manshoon. He is the archetype of the evil overlord: extremely intelligent, ruthless and manipulative. He seems satisfied to be under the orders of Fzoul and to focus on his schemes to further the influence of the black network without having to suffer the day-to-day administration. Manshoon is an extremely dangerous adversary to have as he has full access to the ressources of the Zhentarim and, if necessary, is an epic-level wizard.
