The God Hoar, is going to be a bigger thing then in the past.
Zhentarim is turning from hur durr we are evil god follows fear us. Into more of a harper like situation . Power Broker, Supply chains, resource managers/finders, in the exchange of confluence of situations that they want a hand in . I think they might actually be smart for once.

| Cool. So more like a mafia empire than a goofy evil theocractic empire? |

I like the way that some thought has finally been put into how the Zhentarim would actually operate. Obviously, Ed put a lot of thought into them but that got put to one side in TSR's desperate need for disposable villains and WotC never really rectified that (although I think the 4E incarnation was heading the right direction).
I'm interested to know the meaning of the Zhentarim's new symbol. I wonder when that will be revealed? |

| I too like the Zhents as more of the mafia type rather than just another "evil" organization. The fact that you can become a Zhent as part of the Adventures League has me intrigued, and I can't wait to read the new adventures to see how they interact with the coming story lines. |

Lets see.. Black Network = Black banner
Banner looks like it is on fire or something is burning
Very Stylized Dragon or some sort of serpent
The creature is attacking or eating an object or world.
It could be with the lack of focus f being some gods thing, maybe a dragon king or two is left over from when the worlds separate. Could the black network become the tool of a dragon , and the reason they are against the cult of dragon bring tymat back, is because it doesn't want to come under the sway of the dark goddess, or have to deal with other potential powerful dragons that would come into amounts of power from her as a divine gift?
Then again could be the world serpent that we heard about during 4e.
