At a Glance
Aglarond is a small nation, neither rich nor powerful, and frequently ignored even by other Inner Sea nations. Aglarond is noteworthy, however, because it commands a great deal of the Red Wizards‘ hostile attention. As long as Aglarond stands, the rest of Faerûn is a little safer.

Who Rules
Circa 1320-1375 DR, The Simbul rules Aglarond from a palace in Velprintalar. She is rumored to be a member, or at least an ally, of the Harpers, and the nation can count on the assistance of adventurers loyal to that organization, in addition to its leadership which includes four of the Seven Sisters and other Chosen of Mystra.
