Ahzrukhal

 is the bartender who runs The Ninth Circle in Underworld in 2277.

Background
Although well-mannered, Ahzrukhal is sneaky and sleazy, and is adept at feeding peoples' misery. In Ahzrukhal's opinion, the more miserable you are and the more you drink, the more money ends up in his pocket. He hates competition and wishes he could rid himself of Carol and Greta, who own the only other bar in Underworld.

Effects of player actions
As a bartender, Ahzrukhal initially only offers alcohol, but through dialogue options (no speech check), you can convince him to sell you drugs like Buffout, Jet, and even Stealth Boys.

He is also the holder of Charon's contract, which can be obtained by performing the Hired Help quest or by purchasing it from him. Once Charon's contract is acquired by the player, Charon will kill Ahzrukhal.

You can sell the Soil Stradivarius to Ahzrukhal for 200 caps (or 300 with a speech check), instead of returning it to Agatha.

Appearances
appears only in Fallout 3.

Bugs

 * Sometimes when you inform Charon that you have obtained his contract, he will walk up to Ahzrukhal and do nothing, particularly if Ahzrukhal is asleep. This will prevent you from talking to both Charon and Ahzrukhal.
