Durral

Durral was a half-orc who worked as a guard and bouncer at the Knight 'n' Shadow tavern in Waterdeep as of the.

Description
He was a brute, and his most distinguishing features were his spellscarred hands.

Abilities
Durral's spellscar augmented his fists with magical force, allowing him to throw powerful punches that could instantly knock his opponents off their feet. With some effort, he was able to deliver such a thunderous blow that the force of it could also knock down people standing beside his target.

Activities
As a bouncer, Durral was responsible for subduing bothersome patrons or intruders&mdash;nonlethally if possible &mdash;and punishing or locking up troublemakers as needed. Additionally, he and a group of seven human guards protected the pit that led between the tavern's lower level (called "Shadow") and Downshadow in Undermountain. Durral was personally responsible for manning the rope-operated lift that lowered folk into Downshadow. He charged 5 gold dragons per person per trip, which was not included in the 25 gold bribe that most visitors to Downshadow had to pay just to reach him from the "Knight" section of the tavern upstairs. He strictly disallowed anyone from attempting to climb down for free.

Durral also helped to smuggle people out of Downshadow, although this was not widely known.

Relationships
Durral had caught and locked-up one particular gnome pickpocket so frequently that the thief came to be known by the nickname "Stockade".
