Lyndon

Little is known of Lyndon’s past—and that’s exactly how he prefers it. Once a name whispered in the back rooms of Waterdeep's underworld, Lyndon now leads the Blackwing Assassins, an elite covert syndicate known for their surgical precision and shadowy methods. Operating in the blind spots of kingdoms and empires alike, Blackwing is less a guild and more a ghost—there one moment, vanished the next, leaving only questions and blood in its wake.

Born in Silence

Lyndon’s early life is shrouded in mystery, even to those closest to him. What is known is that he was raised within the Twilight Monastery, a secluded cloister that trained monks in the ways of shadow and stillness. His natural aptitude for infiltration, misdirection, and lethal efficiency earned him the moniker "The Raven’s Fang."

But Lyndon didn’t stay in the monastery. Some say he walked away after a forbidden mission turned on his conscience. Others claim he was cast out after learning secrets not meant for any mortal to bear.

The Rise of Blackwing

After decades spent as a contract killer, intelligence broker, and ghost operative, Lyndon became a founding member of Blackwing—an organization bound not by coin, but by purpose.

Each agent in Blackwing is chosen not just for skill, but for their conviction. They operate on a unique code:

“We kill to preserve balance. Not peace. Not war. Balance.”

Though often mistaken as a guild of mercenaries or assassins-for-hire, Blackwing’s true work lies deeper: intervention. They step in when powers tilt too far, when tyrants rise unchecked, or when forbidden knowledge threatens to unravel reality itself.

It’s no surprise then that Blackwing became involved with the Cult of the Eternal, the Order of Lotus, and the now-revealed schemes of Vespasian
