Yentai

Yentai was an extortionist and an agent of the Iron Throne who operated a shop in Gillian's Hill circa 1370 DR.

"Strange fella, that Yentai. Sets himself up in the dingiest shack in Gillian's Hill and says he's open for business, without even tryin' to pretty the place up first."

- Overheard in Gillian's Hill.

Description
Yentai was a tall man with dusky skin, black hair, and piercing cold eyes.

Possessions
He wore a mundane but expensive-looking heavy solid gold amulet, good enough to have once belonged to a rich monarch or a land-owner.

Yentai's show was set up in Gillian's Hill where he employed two statuesque bodyguards with eyes black as night.

History
Before Yentai opened up his store in Gillian's Hill, he resided in the Dalelands and Cormyr. He worked as an agent of the Iron Throne, and a mercenary who made sure his clients' troubles "went away". Millie Churlgo inherited her family business—Churlgo Cheese—and, being calculating and fiercely competitive, she employed Yentai. The agent of the Throne was well compensated but saw an opportunity to make more. Yentai started trying to copy the halfling family's cheese and eventually started extorting them, forcing the family to flee. Before they left though, Millie Churlgo planted an altered cheese recipe for Yentai to find. The extortionist cooked up a batch of Churlgo Cheese and served it to the Iron Throne dignitaries without tasting it first. The scandal that ensued came to be known as the "Suzail Cheese Incident".

By 1372 DR, Yentai followed the family from the Dalelands to Daggerford. He settled in Gillian's Hill and started organizing bandit raids on Millie Churlgo's shipments of Churlgo Cheese while working with Millie's disgruntled son Porto Churlgo.
