 From here, the party can genuinely try to help him and start {{Quest|Break Yurgir's Contract}} or trick Yurgir into killing his minions and himself.
-* The party can Persuade (DC 16) Yurgir to stand down by choosing ''There must be something you missed. Let me search this place for you." or "Wait - there's one last Dark Justiciar. I met him." if the party has already met {{CharLink|Lyrthindor}}''.
-* The party can try to trick Yurgir into killing his minions by selecting ''The lyrics are a trick. You've always had an audience - your followers. Get rid of them'' (Persuasion DC 16). Then, he can be persuaded (DC 21) to kill his displacer beast. To finish the killings, Yurgir can be persuaded (DC 21) to kill himself to be free of the song.
+The party can try to [[Persuasion|persuade]] Yurgir to stand down by offering to search for the remaining Justiciar:
-* Warlocks with a [[Fiend]] patron have a unique opportunity to suggest Yurgir kill himself right off the bat, with a Persuasion check of 21.
+* {{Dialogue option|There must be something you missed. Let me search this place for you.|roll=Persuasion|dc=16}}
+* {{Dialogue option|Wait - there's one last Dark Justiciar. I met him.}} (if {{CharLink|Lyrthindor}} already met)
+* {{Dialogue option|Wait! You might have missed something, and I'm uniquely good at tracking things down.|tags=Ranger|roll=Persuasion|dc=16|advantage=y}}
+...or they can try to trick Yurgir into killing his minions and then himself if the party member passed a {{Ability check|Insight|14}} or is a bard or warlock:
+* {{Dialogue option|The lyrics are a trick. You've always had an audience - your followers. Get rid of them.|roll=Persuasion|dc=16}}
+* {{Dialogue option|Raphael's a sly lyricist - he tricked you. Your followers heard your song and still live.|tags=Bard|roll=Persuasion|dc=16|advantage=y}}
+When that doesn't work, Yurgir can be persuaded to kill his displacer beast Nessa first, and then himself:
+* {{Dialogue option|You're not finished yet - the displacer can hear you, can't she? Kill her.|roll=Persuasion|dc=21}}
+* {{Dialogue option|Displacer hearing is notoriously sharp. You must kill her too.|tags=Ranger|roll=Persuasion|dc=21|advantage=y}}
+** {{Dialogue option|Exactly. Kill yourself, complete the contract, and you'll be reborn in Avernus. Free.|roll=Persuasion|dc=21}}
+** {{Dialogue option|Kill yourself, coward. Then you'll return to Avernus. You'll be free.|tags=Barbarian|roll=Persuasion|dc=21|advantage=y}}
+** {{Dialogue option|My dear hunter, isn't it obvious? You must kill yourself - then you'll be free.|tags=Bard|roll=Persuasion|dc=21|advantage=y}}
+...or Yurgir can be persuaded to kill himself immediately, at a higher DC of 30:
+* {{Dialogue option|Exactly. Kill yourself, complete the contract, and you'll be reborn in Avernus. Free.|roll=Persuasion|dc=30}}
+* {{Dialogue option|Kill yourself, coward. Then you'll return to Avernus. You'll be free.|tags=Barbarian|roll=Persuasion|dc=30|advantage=y}}
+* {{Dialogue option|My dear hunter, isn't it obvious? You must kill yourself - then you'll be free.|tags=Bard|roll=Persuasion|dc=30|advantage=y}}
+Warlocks with a [[Fiend]] patron have a unique opportunity to suggest Yurgir kill himself right off the bat:
+* {{Dialogue option|'''''You'' always hear the song, orthon. Kill yourself, be reborn in the Hells, break the contract.'''|tags=Fiend|roll=Persuasion|dc=21|advantage=y}}
 If Yurgir is attacked outright, he's joined by many [[Merregon|Merregons]] and {{CharLink|Nessa}} a [[Displacer Beast]]. Persuading him to start {{Quest|Break Yurgir's Contract}} makes it possible to persuade the Displacer Beast to side with the party in case the fight breaks out later.
