Notable Loot

The following items are offered by Brem once you gain the trust of the Zhentarim:

• The Jolty Vest
• Giantbreaker
• Titanstring Bow

Note: These items are locked behind certain quest/dialogue choices. They will only appear in Brem's inventory if you gain Zarys and her group's trust. The items can then be acquired through trading, pick-pocketing, or looting Brem's corpse (if you decide to kill the group anyway after gaining their trust).

If you antagonize Zarys in any way, the group will turn hostile, and the items won't appear in Brem's inventory, making it impossible to acquire them. In particular, if you had convinced Rugan to cross the Zhents and let you take the shipment, then the only way to gain Zarys's trust is to follow her order to finish off Rugan. It's not possible to attain the shipment, spare Rugan's life, and get access to the items above.

Notable NPCs

• Brem (Trader)
• Olly (if rescued during Find the Missing Shipment)
• Oskar
• Rugan (if rescued during Find the Missing Shipment)

Notes

• The Zhentarim Basement is one of the four entrances to the Underdark.
• There is a secret lift that leads to the Underdark hidden behind an illusionary wall at X: 268 Y: -190. Succeeding on a Perception check while next to the wall will reveal it. Passing through the wall will cause any nearby Zhentarim to become hostile.
