  • The Harpers are a Faerûnian organization dedicated to maintaining balance by preventing both evil and good factions from gaining too much power. Organization membership is signified by special pins. In Baldur's Gate II, you can gain access to their headquarters in Athkatla, the Galvarey Estate in the Athkatla Docks, by finishing Bring the Poisoned Man to his Friends quest for Rylock.
  • The Harpers were a semi-secret organization dedicated to promoting good, preserving history (including art and music of old) and maintaining a balance between civilization and nature by keeping kingdoms small and the destruction of plant life to a minimum. They considered the elven empire of Myth Drannor shortly before its fall to be the pinnacle of civilized history and strove to recreate the world in that image. The Harpers have disbanded several times but after each time, they eventually reformed one way or another.

  • The Harpers are a semi-secret organization dedicated to promoting good, preserving history (including art and music of old) and maintaining a balance between civilization and nature by keeping kingdoms small and the destruction of plant life to a minimum. They consider the elven empire of Myth Drannor shortly before its fall to be the pinnacle of civilized history and strive to recreate the world in that image. Those Who Harp are lead by a council of seven High Harpers, who are responsible for most of the group's long-term plans and goals. High Harpers are elected through the means of secret ballots among the other High Harpers, with the criteria being long time service and extreme discretion in the implementation of their plans. * Harpers work against villainy and wickedness wherever they find it, but they work ever mindful of the consequences of what they do. * All beings should walk free of fear, with the right to live their lives as they wish. * The rule of law aids peace and fosters freedom, so long as the laws are just and those who enforce them lenient and understanding. * No extreme is good. For freedom to flourish, all must be in balance: the powers of realms, the reaches of the cities and the wilderlands into each other, and the influence of one being over another. * Whatever it takes, a Harper will do. Pride never rules the deeds of a true Harper. * Freedom is a multiversal right, though Harpers can spare themselves less freedom than those they work to protect when the need presents itself. * Harpers police their own. A Harper who hears the call of personal power can no longer hear the sweet song of the harp. A Harper who seizes power, and holds it above all else, is a traitor to the harp. Traitors must die for freedom to live. * Without a past, no being can appreciate what they have, and where they may be going.
