'''Fezzerk''' is a Goblin NPC leading a gang of goblins at [[Blighted Village]] in [[Act One]], tormenting an unfortunate[[Deep Gnome]] as part of the [[Rescue the Gnome]] quest. Depending on if he is spared or not, he can make a minor appearance later on in [[Act Two]].

Can be spoken to through the use of {{SAI|Speak with Dead}}.

==Act One==
{{SpoilerWarning}}'''Fezzerk''' and his gang can be found on the western most side of the Blighted Village where the windmill is, laughing at [[Barcus Wroot]] who is strapped to the machine. The choice comes to either trying to convince him to let go of Barcus, fighting his group or leaving them be. 

If you try to excuse yourself and leave, he will demand 1000 gold, leading to a variety of choices: 

* ''Pay the goblin.'' 
* {{Ability check|Persuasion|15}}. I might be willing to part with a more reasonable sum. (100)

* {{Ability check|Persuasion|10}}. Here's my counter-offer: a far more reasonable sum. (500) 
* {{Ability check|Persuasion|10}}. That's a ridiculous amount. I'll make you a realistic offer. (250)
* {{SmallIcon|Detect Thoughts Icon.png}}[[Detect Thoughts]] {{Ability check|Intelligence|9}}. Your price is absurd and you know it.
* [[Monk]]. This will lead only to pain, not fulfillment.
** No matter which of the above checks succeed, '''Fezzerk''' will lower the price to 5 because he can't count. The [[Illithid Persuasion]] check can be done to pay nothing and have his group leave. If paid, you'll be allowed to leave, but if you approach again a fight will break out.
*[[Bard]]. Not an orator, eh? I could teach you how to talk gold out of any purse, for free passage. 
** {{Ability check|Performance|5}}. Wait! Just let me go...''please.'' 
*[[Illithid Persuasion]]{{Ability check|Wisdom|2}}. I'm going to pay nothing and you and your cronies are going to leave. This will make '''Fezzerk''' and his group leave, rewarding you experience as if you had defeated them all.

If you demand to have the gnome free, you will get these choices:

* [[Brand of the Absolute|Branded]] {{Ability check|Deception|5}}. We're allies - I have the Absolute's brand. Leave the gnome to me.
* {{Ability check|Intimidation|15}}. I won't let you harm a defenseless being - not without a fight.
* {{Ability check|Persuasion|15}}. You've had your fun - it's high time you found someone else to torment.
* [[Drow]] {{Ability check|Intimidation|5}}. ''Say nothing. Stare down the gibbering coward.''
* [[Half-Orc]] {{Ability check|Intimidation|10}}. ''Don't utter a word. Just stare down the goblin.''
* {{SmallIcon|Detect Thoughts Icon.png}}[[Detect Thoughts]] {{Ability check|Intelligence|9}}. You don't have the stomach for a fight.
* [[Illithid Persuasion]]{{Ability check|Wisdom|2}}. You ''will'' release the gnome. That's an order.
* [[Brand of the Absolute|Branded]] {{Ability check|Deception|5}}. ''Show him your brand and say you're taking the gnome. The Absolute wills it.''
* [[Fighter]]. You're making a mistake. You can think it over in the Fugue Plane.

If convinced to walk away, you will be rewarded experience as if you had defeated the whole group.

If a fight does break out, he will surrender when nearly killed, making the rest of his group flee. You won't be rewarded experience for those who run away however. You can then chose to interrogate him, demand he gives up his belongings and/or kill him. If spared, he will make a minor reappearance in the next act.

==Act Two==
If Fezzerk survived the first act, the player may encounter him again when entering [[Moonrise Towers]]. He, the rest of the goblins, and [[Decide Minthara's Fate|potentially Minthara]] are being judged for the failure to retrieve the [[Mysterious Artefact]]. Whether he and the rest of the goblins are spared or killed is left up to the player.
