Jargie Quinn is a burly man in his late 40s, with a thick, salt-and-pepper beard and a mischievous twinkle in his eyes. He wears a well-worn vest over a loose tunic, his sleeves often rolled up from tending the bar. His left leg is missing below the knee, replaced by a sturdy wooden peg leg that he stomps on the floor for emphasis when telling stories. His scarred hands speak of a rough life at sea, and he has a loud, hearty laugh that echoes through the tavern.

Charismatic & Boisterous – Loves a good story, a loud laugh, and a hearty drink. Cunning & Shrewd – A skilled gambler who knows when someone’s bluffing. Competitive – Challenges patrons to games and dares, especially Norah’s Challenge. Secretive – Frequently changes the story of how he lost his leg, sometimes hinting at a darker past. Loyal & Protective – Looks out for his regulars and employees, but won’t tolerate cheaters or thieves.

Jargie Quinn was once a sailor, but after losing his leg in an accident he rarely speaks of the same way twice, he settled down in Sandpoint to run The Hagfish, a tavern famous for its seafood, gambling, and the legendary “Norah’s Challenge.” He thrives on entertaining guests, often spinning wildly exaggerated tales of his seafaring days—each version more outlandish than the last. Despite the tavern’s raucous atmosphere, Jargie maintains a welcoming, fair-handed presence, making sure fights don’t get out of hand and that no one cheats at the game tables. While he laughs off rumors of his past criminal activities, those who dig too deep might find hints of a less-than-lawful history.
