* TokenEvilTeammate: The Zhentarim sent a legion of orcish troops to help TheAlliance led by King Azoun V against the Tuigan horde. In more recent modules, they'll also ally with other factions if it benefits them.

* TheDragon: Manshoon and Fzoul traded this role several times. As of 3rd Edition, they reached an understanding that while Fzoul was the overall head of the organization, Manshoon had broad latitude to commandeer the Zhentarim's resources and troops to advance its goals.
* ThereCanBeOnlyOne: When the original Manshoon was killed, a score of clones were all activated at once. Most of them killed each other in the ensuing struggle, with only three survivors. One changed his name to Orbakh and became the vampire leader of the Night Mask thieves' guild, and a second took refuge with Halaster Blackcloak. The third one was recognized as "the" Manshoon, and resumed his place in the Zhentarim.
* BigBad: He was one of the biggest villains in the Realms, having led one of its most prominent organizations.

DragonAscendant. As the head of Bane's church, he was also this to his god. He continued even when he died, as Bane made him an Exarch as a reward for his decades of faithful service.

* HypercompetentSidekick: Both to Manshoon when the latter led the Zhentarim, and to all three of the gods he served. Even after his death, he continued serving in this role when Bane made him an Exarch.
* SealedInsideAPersonShapedCan: Bane took over his body to use as an avatar during the Time of Troubles. Needless to say, this was a huge honor for Fzoul, and an early indication of how much Bane valued his competence.
