Yarga Stonefist
Yarga Stonefist is a Zhentarim enforcer and a regular at the Yawning Portal. She is blunt, physically imposing, and not someone who wastes time on threats when action will do. Her presence commands respect, and most who know her reputation don’t test it.
Years ago, she crossed paths with Grayson during his training under a Zhentarim Master of Shadows. She remembers him and treats him with a reserved but genuine respect. She understands the kind of man he is, even if she doesn’t always agree with the path he walks.
Yarga is deeply protective of the staff and regulars of the Yawning Portal. When a group of Zhent grunts tried to assault Bonnie near the back alley of the tavern, Yarga intervened without hesitation. She grabbed one of them and slammed him into a wall hard enough to knock him out, then aggressively reminded them that the Yawning Portal staff was off limits. Whether this is by her own decree or a law of the Waterdeep underworld is not currently known.
Yarga occasionally shares information with Grayson about underworld activity, provided it doesn’t endanger her people. She is not sentimental, but she respects consistency and strength, and she treats those who mind their business with fairness. She doesn’t owe the party anything, but if they keep their heads on straight, she might just help them again.
