Legal System of Waterdeep

Waterdeep’s laws are strict and enforceable, with little tolerance for crime. The city’s Guard is one of the most formidable in Faerûn, and the Watchful Order of Magists and Protectors ensures that magic users do not misuse their powers. Crime is punished swiftly, and Waterdeep’s streets are carefully patrolled by both the Guard and private mercenaries. In addition, the city has a network of spies, informants, and vigilantes working behind the scenes to keep order.
