Renard Wing¶
A male human, a son of a wealthy mercantile family in Waterdeep.
He was the Logistics advisor to Larell Silverhand.
He set up the Rising Star and summoned the Worm Bois to take control of Waterdeep from the Masked Lords Of Waterdeep.
He can see through illusory magic such as Invisibility and Seeming.
We killed him in Renard’s Lair.
Timeline¶
First Meeting¶
We first encountered him at Renard’s Parents House during a Worm Bois attack on it. We assumed they were attacking him.
He did not reveal that he was a trusted advisor of Larell Silverhand.
We also encountered the White Mask there but could see no reason why they were targeting Renard.
Quest Contact¶
He was our contact and point person for the “What Is The Link Between The Worm Bois And Waterdeep?” quest.
He gave us the Waterdeep Sending Stone to contact him with updates on the situation.
At each meeting he pressed us for any information we had found.
Post Caoimh Inn Attack¶
He came to check up on us after the Attack On Caoimh Inn. It was clear he was suspicious that we were holding something back.
He took the book we found in the Sewer Room.
Sending us to the Down Shadow Mine¶
He instructed Fargas Thorngage to take us to the next meeting after the one at the Night And Shadow.
Fargas’ soul informed us that “Renard set up the sect”. It’s unclear if he meant the Rising Star or just the sect Fargas was in charge of.
After killing Fargas Thorngage we contacted Renard to say via the Sending Stone:
Attended cultist meeting in Night And Shadow. Following leader into Down Shadow. Probable trap. Send reinforcements ASAP.
He responded that he would send reinforcements to find us and that “you seem like capable people, I’m sure you’ll be fine”.
We have assumed that “find” means he’s more likely working for Rising Star than working against them from within.
Given what we found in the mine it seems likely he was sending us to our death.
Attempt to Derail The Party¶
While the Party was walking to speak with Larell Silverhand he spotted them, despite Seeming, and attempted to redirect them to his office.
In Larell Silverhand’s office Knuckles asked our Guard escort to testify that Renard did this.
Fleeing the Palace¶
Larell Silverhand led the Party to Renard’s Office to confront him. He jump out the window and teleported away using a scroll.
Final Showdown¶
Kellah, and the The Black Network, tracked him underground multiple times and discovered he was vising a location we discovered to be Renard’s Lair. Kellah and Miss Hope lead us all to that location. We killed Renard Wing there and destroyed his sigil which bound the Worm Bois to the Material Plane.
Aftermath¶
He was listed as one of the fallen souls by Larell Silverhand to the city so as to hide his hand in the events and protect the city’s image.
