'''Zarys''' is the leader of the group of Zhentarim who occupy the [[Zhentarim Basement]] in [[Act One]], a hideout she is overseeing the destruction of in order to hide the Zhentarim presence from the [[Flaming Fist]] after the events at [[Waukeen's Rest]]. The party must earn Zarys' approval in order to purchase, pickpocket, or loot certain items from [[Brem]].

'''Zarys''' is the leader of the group of Zhentarim who occupy the [[Zhentarim Basement]] in [[Act One]], a hideout she is overseeing the destruction of in order to hide the Zhentarim presence from the [[Flaming Fist]] after the events at [[Waukeen's Rest]]. The player must earn Zarys' approval in order to purchase, pickpocket, or loot certain items from [[Brem]].


== Overview ==
===Returning the unopened Strongbox after Rugan's death===
Upon first entering the hideout, '''Zarys''' will tell the party they've come far enough and threaten to kill them. The player must pass one of several dialogue checks to get her to stand down or all the [[Zhentarim]] in the base will become hostile. If they succeed, then Zarys will order her underlings to disarm the hideout's traps so the party can come talk to her.
If the party recovered the {{RarityItem|Caravan Strongbox}} after either they or the [[Gnoll]]s killed [[Rugan]] and [[Olly]], then the party can give it to Zarys. She will be overjoyed and reward the party with {{RarityItem|Harold}}, gold, and access to special items in [[Brem|Brem's]] shop.
*'''NOTE:''' Even if the party killed Rugan and Olly, they will not have to pass a Deception check to lie about this to Zarys.
 
===Persuading Rugan to give the party the Strongbox===
If the party persuaded Rugan to give them the {{RarityItem|Caravan Strongbox}}, then they will walk into a unique scene in the hideout where the Zhentarim have killed Olly and are torturing Rugan for losing the shipment. Zarys will demand that the party execute Rugan. If the party kills him, then Zarys will reward them with access to Brem's special stock but will not give them {{RarityItem|Harold}}.
 
If the party does anything other than killing him, then Zarys and the rest of the hideout will immediately turn hostile. If they ignite the [[Smokepowder Barrel]]s lying around the base then they can potentially kill the entire party in a single turn.


Zarys will then remark that not many people can talk their way into a Zhentarim hideout and that she has a job for them: to [[Find the Missing Shipment]]. After the player completes this quest, she will treat them very differently depending on how they chose to do so.
===Returning the Iron Flask===
If the party already opened the {{RarityItem|Caravan Strongbox}} and instead gives Zarys the {{RarityItem| Iron Flask}}, she will exclaim that the buyer will kill them all for opening the package before immediately attacking the party alongside the rest of the Zhentarim.


===Recovered the Strongbox after Rugan's death===

===Saved Rugan===

===Already opened the Strongbox===
* {{Rarity item|Arrow of Acid}}
If the player already opened the {{RarityItem|Caravan Strongbox}} and instead gives Zarys the {{RarityItem| Iron Flask}}, she will exclaim that the buyer will kill them all for opening the package before immediately attack the party alongside the rest of the Zhentarim.

*If the player wants to gain both the {{RarityItem| Iron Flask}} inside the strongbox and the magic items from Brem's special stock, then the simplest way to do so is to kill Rugan and Olly, give Zarys the box, buy the items from Brem, and then kill [[Zarys]] to regain access to the strongbox. Given Zarys's position at the top of a cliff, the player can easily [[shove]] or [[throw]] her off before igniting a {{RarityItem|Smokepowder Barrel}} to blow up most of the Zhentarim.
