DnD Factions: Lord's Alliance

In this episode of Roll for Lore, we pull back the curtain on the Lord’s Alliance, the powerful coalition of rulers and merchant cities that serves as the political backbone of the Forgotten Realms. Whether you’re a Dungeon Master looking to use the Alliance as a patron or a Baldur’s Gate 3 fan wondering why Duke Ulder Ravengard and the Flaming Fist are so obsessed with order, we break down everything you need to know about this lawful-neutral powerhouse. We explore the high-stakes diplomacy between iconic cities like Waterdeep, Neverwinter, and Baldur’s Gate, and how their "security at any cost" mentality often clashes with the more chaotic heroism of the Harpers. From the legendary influence of Laeral Silverhand to the internal rivalries that threaten to tear the Sword Coast apart, this episode is your definitive guide to the faction that keeps civilization standing—and the dark compromises they make to ensure the gold keeps flowing and the monsters stay at the gates.
