Abdirak resides inside the [[Shattered Sanctum]] next to the torture room. He offers the player peace and serenity through pain. If accepted, Abdirak will strike the player several times. If he is pleased with their performance, he will bless them with the [[Permanent bonuses|permanent bonus]] {{Cond|Loviatar's Love}}. In order to gain this bonus, the player will need to be hit three times and pass each subsequent performance/intimidation roll or fail the Constitution roll (following the [[Monk]] dialogue options through the end of the encounter will not grant the bonus). If attempting to fail the Constitution rolls, you can easily inflict [[Poisoned (Condition)|Poisoned]] on yourself by eating some of the rotten food found in the room next door. | Abdirak resides inside the [[Shattered Sanctum]] next to the torture room.

If the player reads ''[[On Receiving Her Grace]]'', found on the nearby table, they will unlock the dialogue option "I saw your book. Let me try some of those techniques". This will allow them to choose which tool {{-}} mace, knife, or axe {{-}} Abdirak uses, and thus changes the damage type inflicted to {{DamageType|Bludgeoning}}, {{DamageType|Piercing}}, or {{DamageType|Slashing}} respectively. This can be used to the player's advantage by planning ahead to reduce damage taken. For example, selecting the axe option and casting [[Blade Ward]] or equipping the [[Amulet of the Unworthy]]{{note|Found on one of the [[Minotaur]]s in the [[Underdark]], easiest access is via the [[Zhentarim Basement]].}} to gain Slashing resistance. | If the player reads ''[[On Receiving Her Grace]]'', found on the nearby table, they will unlock the dialogue option "I saw your book.
