Thann

House Thann is one of Waterdeep's leading Vintners, with large land-holdings in the south and strong ties to Blackstaff Tower. They have strong ties with the Vintners' Distillers' and Brewers' guild.

House Thann traces it's history back to a family of Velenese slave traders who built their fortune ferrying slaves from the Port of Shadow to southern lands, where slavery was legal. Over time, the family split into two branches, one based in Tethyr, now all but gone, and one based in Waterdeep. In the year of Spilled Blood Lord Rhammas Thann convinced his aging father, Lord Erktos I, to abadon the slave trade, and the family fortunes are now built on merchant shipping, fine wines, and land owning. The family maintains a hand in less reputable trade as well.
