Looks like the Harpers are -- for the most part -- gone. Only one tiny group remains... http://www.wizards.com/dnd/files/excerpts/FRPreview_Luruar.pdf

What were the Harpers exactly anyway? Heard of them but don't have much information.

And isn't that exactly what a secret organization would like you to believe ;)

A secret society of typically good-aligned meddlers, primarily concerned with fighting against evil and tyranny. Elminster, most of the Seven Sisters, and Blackstaff Arunsun were among the prominent members.

Nice!

This gives my character another amazing story hook.. my original LC character (who my character is the grandson of) was a Harper.. my character will have his grandfathers pin, and dream of reforming the Hapers...

I think I now have our first unoffical player-run meta-org planed out... Excellent

I think the Harpers are back to their origins.
They had turned into an org where every goody-too-shoos and their mother was a secret member of. Wanted to find a harper? Just cast detect good...
I'm exaggerating, but I don't mind the harpers being low profile. I wish they had refored in the Dalelands though.
Then again, my PC (Valencia) is from Everlund, so I see a future carreer, though a.t.m. she is in training as the 'Glimmerwood girl-witch'... :D

-Information on the Harpers can be found primarily in the Code of the Harpers sourcebook.

This person had a very similar thought. I took a slightly different tactin having various Harper organisations though.
