Queltar Thaeloon

Queltar Thaeloon was the presumed Archmage Arcane of the Arcane Brotherhood in Luskan in the late 1360s. He might have been the one known as the Wizard of Green Fire, a top lieutenant of another Archmage Arcane, Arklem Greeth.
==History==
By 1366 DR and through to 1370 DR, Queltar Thaeloon was thought to hold the title of Archmage Arcane of the Hosttower. He resided on the upper levels of the central spire of the Hosttower of the Arcane in Luskan.
Eventually, however, two senior mages named Eldeluc and Valkebar assassinated the Wizard of Green Fire, and on to ambush the Archmage Arcane Arklem Greeth on Eleint 14 in the .

===Notes===
According to Volo's Guide to the North, The Accursed Tower, and The North: Guide to the Savage Frontier, Queltar Thaeloon was the Archmage Arcane at the time of their setting (collectively 1366–1370 DR). However, in the 3-edition Lords of Darkness (presumably not using these earlier sources), there is no mention of Queltar and furthermore it states Arklem Greeth "has remained the head of the organization since its inception". In the same book, the "Wizard of Green Fire" (mentioned nowhere else) is said to have been Arklem's top lieutenant. This distinction could be a retcon to correct a previous inconsistency.
Moreover, Volo's Guide to the North says the Archmage Arcane "is thought to currently be Queltar Thaeloon", implying it is Volo's belief that Queltar is Archmage Arcane, and this and other sources could be false. It's possible that Queltar was a prominent second-in-command to Arklem, or deposed Arklem and reigned briefly but not recorded officially as Archmage Arcane, or reigned in his stead temporarily, or Volo and others are mistaken, or something else. The period corresponds with a 5-year-long period of strife in the Arcane Brotherhood and Arklem's lack of involvement described in Lords of Darkness.
Thus, to resolve this, this article assumes Queltar Thaeloon and the Wizard of Green Fire to be one and the same and thus to have been Arklem's second-in-command.
