Arbiter's Alliance
The Arbiter's Alliance is the formal name of Sundren's volunteer forces. Organizations such as the Triumvirate, Church of Helm, the Red Blades and Hands of Mundus carry this banner. It represents their will to unite and fight against the evils that threaten to consume it.
Black Hand of Bane
Bane has only recently taken an interest in Sundren and why is still yet to be known. The immediate appearance of the Triumvirate following the appearance of banites though has led many to believe that these shadowy agents of the great tyrant are heralds of terrible things to come.
Church of Helm
In a land where danger is prevalent and unseen evil festers, the followers of Helm find themselves most at home. Elrick and his fellow helmites have taken it upon themselves to guard the growing city from the forces that cannot be seen. The Church of Helm has an overwhelming presence in Sundren and is well respected by the people. Their protection is openly valued by Marcus Vae and his subordinates. The generous contributions made by these wealthy benefactors can be seen put to use daily as the expanding army of Watchknights continues to fill the city.
Eboncoin Pact
Little is known about the Eboncoin Pact, who they are, or where they came from, but it is clear that they are here to stay. Deeply rooted in the shadows that surround the City-State's economy, the Eboncoin —or 'the Guild' as they are so often referred to— is thought to be the source of the many nefarious deeds which occur at the night hours and shady deals in dark back alleys of Sundren City.
Exigo Syndicate
Ramas Sepret, like many of the often diverse races and factions that populate Sundren, came seeking riches. Unlike the other less zealous fortune-seekers, Ramas brought an entire league of miners, farmers, and botanists with him. This group of individuals, known as the Exigo Syndicate, is primarily made up from those of Mulhorandi descent; however, some dwarves, gnomes, and even elves exist within their ranks. The clever and industrious group arrived in 1352 and has been taking advantage of the bountiful resources of the land ever since.
Hands of Mundus
The Hands of Mundus, also known simply as "The Hands" were present before Sundren was a city state. When the great wizard Mundus strolled into the valley, he brought with him his two closest friends who he would commonly refer to as his left and right hands, in recognition of their worth to him. They together, with his blessings, formed the Hands. Following a nasty falling out after the death of Mundus and their differing view on how things should be run, the order was forever separated into two halves with members following one of the two leaders. The two hands struggle ceaselessly to assume full control of the order of elite magi, and to prove their interpretation of Mundus' will is correct.

Kurz Cartel
Kurz Vilebelch and his band of miscreant rogues recently fled to Sundren seeking to escape the law enforcement of Waterdeep. Their presence is unwelcome in the city, so they've created a small hideout in one of the caves near Viridale forest. Marcus Vae has put forth a reward for the head of Kurz and declared his small cartel enemies of the state.
Mey Savak
The Mey Savak, or the Order of the Mind's Eye, is a group of insightful, observant, and introspective monks who record history with advanced memory techniques. They are entirely neutral and exist only to record and recall events.

Mossclaw Alliance
The creatures of Viridale forest have formed an alliance in an effort to safeguard their territory from not only the Sundren Military, but each other. The Mossclaw Gnolls, Stonegarb Ogres, Muckspear Goblins and Grimaxe orcs comprise this crude band of woodland terrors. Recently the group has been becoming more aggressive, much to the dismay of the forest border guards.
Nature's Wrath
A secret organization who's only known member is the Keeper of the Grove of Viridale. This group is responsible for doing whatever it takes to protect nature, and it has been rumored they have been responsible for more then a few acts of Eco Terrorism.
Red Blades
The Red Blades have existed since the founding of Sundren in 1230. Since that time they have been controlled by the descendants of Eriar Vitori; the founder who defined their unique style of swordsmanship. The Red Blades zealously serve Sundren and all of their members have sworn a pledge of eternal loyalty to both the guild and the state. Only the most skilled of warriors are ever inducted into the Red Blades. Once accepted, initiates must face certain trials which often cause even the most resilient warrior to falter. Those who overcome the trials endure rites of passage into full membership and begin their training under Vaer himself.
Slitherscale
Lizard men are not natives to Sundren, leading many to believe that this tribe has just recently arrived at the shores near Sestra. The reason they've come is yet to be seen but their raids on fishing boats, outlying settlements and even Sestra itself has made it clear they are out to take part of Sundren valley for their own.
Spittlefist
These miscreants originally hail from the Musckpear tribe of Viridale. After splintering, in a desperate attempt to stay alive, they fled to the Sharahan Hills and hid. It's believed that the activities of the Exigo have led them to resurface and even forge a tenuous pact with the Bloodmaim orcs.
Sundarian Legion
The Sundarian Legon is recognized formally as a government investment that is directly responsible for the protection of all claimed territory. They alternatively serve as low level law enforcement in the absence of Judicators and Wardens but all but officers are restricted from executions, banishments and other harsh punishments without permission from an authority.

The Dark Advent
This cryptic group of necromancers only recently arrived in Sundren. They keep to themselves and for the most part, never even approach the city. Their lair is believed to be located to the east of Avanthyr, but some say their influence spans as far as Aquor. Aside from that, not much is known about the small organization. Most locals prefer to ignore their existence, assuming that those who deal with the dead are best left to their strange studies.
The Hands of Gruumsh
The Mossdale forest is well known for its population of intelligent war-driven inhabitants, the Bloodmaim Orcs. These crazed fiends have recently collected themselves under one banner, the Hands of Gruumsh. The organization has openly shown its hostility to Sundren in recent attacks and has show no signs of wavering.
The Triumvirate
The Triumvirate are a coalition of paladins, clerics and warrior priests united by their faith in Tyr, Torm and Illmater. They have come to Sundren with a sacred task: intercept and eradicate the servants of Bane within the valley.

Veritas Syndicate
The Veritas Syndicate has existed since 1230. When the organization was founded following Mundus' death, it was intended to be exactly what it is today, a group of rebels fighting for control of Sundren. The current leader, Mihkail Veritas has not changed this stance. The stalwart rebellion has fought zealously for more than a hundred years, but since their lair was revealed five years ago, their plans for domination have been stunted.
