Overview[edit | edit source]

Background[edit | edit source]

Yurgir is an orthon who has been trapped in the Gauntlet of Shar for many years, unable to fulfil the requirements of his contract with Raphael. Under the devil's orders, he and his merregons devastated Ketheric Thorm's Dark Justiciars, killing all they found from the Grymforge to the Gauntlet.

Description[edit | edit source]

Yurgir is a towering and foreboding figure, a veteran of the Blood War who is confident in his command. He speaks in a low rumble, his skin hard and red with three large sets of horns curling from the crown of his head.

Yurgir loves a good fight, and has respect for capable warriors.

History[edit | edit source]

Before signing a contract with Raphael, Yurgir fought on the front-lines of the Blood War. [1]

Sometime around the late 14th century DR, Ketheric Thorm Ketheric Thorm began amassing an army of Dark Justiciars. Infernal Mason Morfred, a Selûnite mason who had worked for Ketheric, including creating Moonrise Towers,[2] had tried to build a resistance against him to no avail. He eventually contacted Raphael Raphael, asking him to destroy Ketheric's army.[3]

Yurgir signed a contract with Raphael to "Wander Shar's halls" and "leave no Justiciar alive to obey". [4] His contract stated that he must fulfill its terms, die trying, or forfeit his freedom and become Raphael's slave. Yurgir carried out his attack with his legion of Merregons, breaking through the walls of the Grymforge and killing the Justiciar presence there. [5][6] He and his legion then moved to the Gauntlet of Shar to defeat the remaining Justiciars.

With no more Justiciars to be found, Yurgir and his band seemed to have succeeded. However, Yurgir remained bound to the Gauntlet. Unbeknownst to Yurgir, Raphael had given a book to the final Dark Justiciar, Lyrthindor Lyrthindor, which planted in him the idea of splitting his body into parts to escape. [7]

Unwilling to break his contract and enter into servitude, Yurgir remained in the Gauntlet, hunting shadows for a hundred years.

Involvement[edit | edit source]

Act Two[edit | edit source]

Yurgir stands ready to ambush the party in the Gauntlet of Shar. Proceeding through his encounter can ultimately go two ways: helping Yurgir, or killing him.

Killing Yurgir[edit | edit source]

While exploring the Gauntlet, the party is lured by Nessa Nessa, a Displacer Beast, into an ambush with Yurgir and his Merregons. Yurgir catches the scent of Raphael Raphael on them immediately and voices his hatred of the devil, explaining the details of their contract. As a result of the contract he intends to kill anyone that dare venture into his wing of the temple. The party can continue speaking to Yurgir to learn more about his circumstances and about the fate of the Dark Justiciars, and even agree to try and help free him.

Bards and Warlocks are given a unique opportunity to defeat Yurgir and his group through dialogue checks. It is also possible for other classes if they pass a DC 14 Insight check after Yurgir recites his contract. [8]

It is possible to gain several inspiration points while dealing with Yurgir:

It is also possible to sneak up on Yurgir and his group, avoiding conversation entirely. Stealing from Yurgir's chests (such as using stealth) will lock the party out of all friendly negotiations with him, even if the characters doing the stealing were not detected.

Freeing Yurgir[edit | edit source]

Yurgir reciting the contract.
Yurgir reciting the contract.
Spill all the blood sworn to the night.
Silence all prayers; smother each rite.

Wander Shar's halls; hungry to slay;
Leave no Justiciar alive to obey.

Leave none to hear it, then be set free;
This song is your oath, swear, swear to me.[9]

Yurgir's contract with Raphael stated that he must defeat all of Ketheric Thorm's Dark Justiciars, which he and his merregons thought to have completed after leaving naught but rats in the Gauntlet. However, after exploring the area, the party will discover a book at the foot of the large statue of Shar Shar. One Becomes Many reveals that the rats in the area are actually parts of the final Dark Justiciar, baited into splitting by Raphael.

The party can defeat the rats, and then Lyrthindor Lyrthindor, and return to Yurgir so that he and Raphael can renegotiate the terms of his employment, or simply kill him anyway. Either choice will lead to Yurgir returning to Raphael's House of Hope.

While in peaceful negotiations with Yurgir, the party can speak with his displacer beast, Nessa,[10] and one of the merregons; Hoarding Merregon who can be traded with, found at X: -660 Y: -760. [11]

Act Three[edit | edit source]

Main article: Deal with the Devil

During Act Three, the party can find Raphael Raphael at Sharess' Caress, where he will offer them a deal; the Crown of Karsus Crown of Karsus in exchange for the means to free Prince Orpheus Orpheus.

Visiting camp[edit | edit source]

If the party freed Yurgir from his contract, the orthon will appear one night during a Long Rest. He will compliment the Campsite and tell the party to seek out the diabolist Helsik Helsik at the Devil's Fee in order to access Raphael's abode, the House of Hope. When questioned on his motives, Yurgir appears genuinely thankful for helping him with his contract and considers it a favour repaid.

House of Hope[edit | edit source]

Yurgir is encountered again while leaving the House of Hope after stealing from Raphael. In the ensuing fight, if the party helped free him from his contract, he will switch allegiances and help the party kill Raphael Raphael. If the party killed Yurgir in Act 2, he can still be persuaded to aid the party with a DC 30 Persuasion check. If performing the actions to free him of his contract, but not going through the related dialog, then it will still be necessary to persuade Yurgir.

If Yurgir aids the party, he will become an ally for Gather Your Allies Gather Your Allies. When summoned, he becomes an Attached Follower through the action Hellstalker Yurgir Hellstalker Yurgir.
