{{DiQ|And who're you? 'Nother pest? Everyone just barges in here, thinkin' they rule the world. Hah!|Crusher| when approached by the player}}
 
== Involvement ==
=== Act One ===
Crusher can be found in the eastern courtyard of the Goblin Camp, boasting to a small crowd about goblin superiority and the power of the [[Absolute]]. If a non-drow player character interacts with him, he attempts to humiliate them and demand submission by kissing his foot. If the interacting party member is a [[drow]], Crusher does not attempt to bully the party.
 
The party can respond to Crusher in several ways:
 
* {{Dialogue option|''Ponder how it would taste to bite his toe clean off.''|tags=Dark Urge}} (This causes the player character to bite off his toe, initiating combat but sparing the party of humiliation.)
