I've leaned hard into the 'father' aspect of Tomb of Annihilation - the absent Ub'tao who left his children to destruction, death and exploitation to the merchant princes to Acererak, who nurtures the Atropal for his own selfish gains.

They're a non-governmental spy organization ala Kingsman that opposes the machinations of the Red Wizards and Zhentarim. They're mostly bards, since a bard can go basically anywhere and their skill set makes them perfect spies. They meddle in politics and pull crazy heists and basically all manner of James Bond tomfoolery. For my money, way more fun than yet another mercantile house, which the Forgotten Realms already possess in abundance.

Gus did do some excellent work, but he mostly talked about the nuts and bolts of the adventure itself. You did not do that, instead presenting a fabulous and interesting series of ideas to be liberally mined, repackaged, or recycled into a myriad of other ideas. You have inspired me. So when my players all get devoured by a giant undead fetus who sucks out their souls, they'll know they have you to thank.
