Balgus

Balgus is a champion tavern fighter and owner of Balgus Brewing, the only brewery in Kraghammer. He was first witnessed by the group passed out drunk at the Iron Hearth Tavern in Kraghammer. He trades the group a cask of "thistle branch darkblood wine" for a cup of dragon's blood. He is later seen in a tavern fight with Trinket, and is excited to be fighting a bear for the first time. He chooses to stop fighting after Keyleth starts dancing in bear form while impersonating Trinket, finding the dancing bear incredibly amusing and telling it to give a happy growl.

He is shown to be incredibly tough, laughing off a strong hit that he didn't see coming from Vax. His grin was described as a "railroad of terror."
