Involvement

Tristan is encountered at the Waukeen's Rest, struggling to get inside the burning inn together with his fellow Fists - Fist Recruit Aelis, Fist Recruit Ito and Fist Recruit Pavel, along with Gauntlet Yeva. They are trying to rescue Counsellor Florrick and Duke Ravengard who are said to be blocked inside the building.

If the party help the Fists to unblock the front door, Tristan with the rest of the squad runs upstairs to the room where Florrick is trapped, and descends back after the counsellor’s fate is resolved.

If Florrick survives, Tristan receives his orders (with the other Fists) to search for the kidnapped Duke and, after leaving the Inn, is never seen again.
