Quinner Knox is a male human and the current owner of Goat Lips, a tavern in Neverwinter.
Jory vs. Goat Lips
On Day 1 of the campaign (14 Tarsakh), Conor McGregor and Herb Stoner, acquaintances and regulars at Goat Lips, were pulled into a fight between one of the tavern's guards Jory Undammuth and the rest of the staff. Jory, while obviously drunk, stood up on the table where Conor and Herb were sitting and shouted to the patrons "Hey everyone, while you’re all here getting drunk, this place is hiring people to steal your gold! You all are being robbed!" Jory then threw handaxes toward the bar, one of them hitting and killing the bartender. The other guards looked at Conor and Herb liked they were on Jory's side, and combat began.
The surviving patrons all escaped, but Quinner, wearing his hood and posing as a patron, slowly walked outside while keeping a close eye on Conor, Herb and Jory. The trio then went into the back hallway of the building and encountered three mirror image versions of Berrian Venhorn, the owner of the tavern. The three versions of Berrian, in unison, said "Gentlemen, must we continue? Jory, you aren’t looking well. And of your new friends, only this one (Conor) seems to still have any fight left in him. Since you’re here, I can only assume that my men in the bar are dead. There had to be witnesses, yes? So, here you are, fugitives. I’ll let you live, and you can then go and try to not be arrested, on one condition: you leave Neverwinter, and you never come back. And I’ll know if you do come back. Jory, you know that’s true. I have my ways. So, what will it be? You die here tonight, or you leave and never come back. Which one will it be?"
Before they could answer the offer, Quinner appeared and fired an arrow at one of the Berrians, connecting and causing the mirror image to disappear. Combat broke out, as Quinner joined the others against Berrian and his guard, but the true version of Berrian escaped out the back door. The guard, who had fallen unconscious during combat, died shortly after. Quinner revealed his identity, and he and Jory then referred to a previous conversation they had. Quinner reminded the group that witnesses got away, and the Neverwinter Town Guard would arrive soon. He told the group he had a room at the nearby Firestorm Inn, and he led them there to rest.
Figuring Out What's Next
After arriving at Quinner's room on the second floor of Firestorm Inn, the group heard alarm bells outside the window. Quinner and Herb looked through the window and saw five members of the Neverwinter Town Guard arriving at Goat Lips to investigate. Quinner then told the group about a job he heard about that might be good for them. His friend Gundren Rockseeker was looking for help escorting supplies to Phandalin, and he said he could arrange a meeting with them in the morning. The group then rested overnight in Quinner's room.
The next morning (15 Tarsakh), Conor, Herb and Jory decided to visit the Purple Blade while Quinner tracked down a male dwarf named Gundren Rockseeker. After the group finished shopping, Quinner led them to meet Gundren at a nearby tavern named the Exclusive Hag.
