Bargaining are you? A Kara-Tur warlord once tried the same - I made him watch as I ate his concubines and young, then fashioned a codpiece from his skull.
— Yurgir

Yurgir is an Orthon, a powerful type of Fiend from the Nine Hells. He and his band of Merregon Legionnaires can be found in the Gauntlet of Shar, where they have been trapped by consequence of a contract with Raphael.

Act Two

While exploring the Gauntlet, the party is lured by a Displacer Beast into a ambush with Yurgir and his Merregons. Yurgir catches the scent of 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 are given a unique opportunity to defeat Yurgir and his group through dialogue checks. It is also possible for other classes if they pass an Insight check after Yurgir recites his contract.

It is also possible to sneak up on Yurgir and his group, avoiding conversation entirely.

Yurgir's Contract

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.

Act Three

If Yurgir was killed by the player during act two, Yurgir is encountered again while leaving the House of Hope after stealing from Raphael. In the ensuing fight, he can be persuaded to aid the player with a DC 30 Persuasion check.

He can become an ally for Gather Your Allies (Class Action) Gather Your Allies (Class Action). If summoned he becomes a playable temporary companion.

Notes

  • Stealing from Yurgir's chests (such as using stealth) will lock the player out of all friendly negotiations with him, even if the characters doing the stealing were not detected.
  • After talking with Yurgir, and a fight didn't occur, a Hoarding Merregon can be traded with. It is found at X: -660 Y: -760. If you trade with it but then kill Yurgir and his minions, it does not drop any gold you used to purchase wares, nor most of the ordinary items traded.
  • The player can help Yurgir fulfill his contract, allowing him to return to the Nine Hells to make a new contract with Raphael. Alternatively, Yurgir can be defeated through conversation or combat.
  • If Yurgir is left unharmed and helped, he will return later in the game.

  • He will help against the boss at the House of Hope and fight the Elder Brain.
  • If Yurgir is defeated via combat or deceit, he will assist the boss in the House of Hope. It is possible to convince him to fight alongside you (DC 30), both against the boss and in the fight against the Elder Brain.
  • There's an Insight check during dialogue to figure out that the lyrics hide a trick, then a persuasion roll of 16 to convince Yurgir to kill his minions, then a Persuasion roll of 21 to convince him to kill his Displacer Beast, then yet another 21 Persuasion roll to convince him to kill himself. Even succeeding on just the first roll will make the fight significantly easier.
  • If you want to fight Yurgir, you can get Nessa, the Displacer Beast, to fight against him with a Persuasion roll of 30.
