He is a slaver without peer, even in the cutthroat world of Skullport, and remains one of the strongest members of the Iron Ring consortium that he helped found. His packs of half- and pureblood yuan-ti "jailers" (what he calls his thugs and overseers) are a common sight throughout Skullport, stalking alleyways looking for easy marks or escorting chained slaves into the city. As an abomination yuan-ti, Zstulkk Ssarmn looks like a 10-foot-long snake with mottled gray and black scales, topped by a handsome human head. His face is tanned and scarred, with dark hair and eyes. He has no arms.
