Peacekeeper Jadaar

From WoWWiki

Peacekeeper Jadaar is a guard in Shattrath City. On first sighting, he was placed in the Covered Market in Lower City, standing next to Griftah the trinket seller and making skeptical comments in response to Griftah's sales pitch.

After a period of time, Griftah was moved to the outskirts of Shattrath city and Jadaar was joined by Investigator Asric, overseeing the investigation of Griftah's stall. When you spoke to him he would announce the following:

• Let it never be said that we do not listen to the concerns of the people. This “Griftah” individual has made false claims and we mean to set things right.

He offers this explanation:

• The merchant known as Griftah has been exiled from this city for his fraudulent activities. We plan to go over these little knick-knacks he sells extremely carefully. Please, leave his stall undisturbed and let us do our work.

As of patch 2.3.0 Jadaar currently stands with Investigator Asric in the World's End Tavern, arguing with him over who was responsible for the loss of evidence in the Griftah case. However, when you spoke to him his text remained the same. Some time after Patch 2.4.0, players could no longer speak with him.

Griftah himself has returned to his own stall in the city, and now gives a Zul'Aman related quest, as well as selling new items.

Quotes

• There have been some complaints filed about this... individual. I'm told he's something of a shady character. I am here to determine whether or not this business of his is legitimate... and take action if it proves otherwise.

From his conversations with Griftah:

• Griftah: Dangerous out there, innit? Know what ya need? Protection. I can help ya defy death itself! Ya wear this madstone 'round yer neck, see, and then ya be able to come back if ya find yerself in the spirit world! Just a quick jaunt to yer corpse and up ya come, fresh and new!

Peacekeeper Jadaar: You cannot possibly be suggesting that these baubles of yours hold sway over the very fabric of life itself!

Griftah: Ya wanna find out?!

Peacekeeper Jadaar: ... was that a THREAT?!

Griftah: Ah... uh... nah.

• Griftah: Hey! Hey, <race>! I be havin' just the thing for ya. Ya ever see a tikbalang? Frightenin' creatures. Prone to stealin' ya away. What ya need is one of my tikbalang wards. Guaranteed to ward all tikbalangs!

Peacekeeper Jadaar: I've never heard of a tikbalang in my life. In fact, the Scryers tell me they can't find a single mention in one of their libraries.

Griftah: Look, man, they didn't live to be writin' about it, okay?

• Griftah: Look over here, <class>! I got something for ya. Just what ya need! It's soap, right.. and it's on a rope! No offense, man, but yer a little ripe, know what I'm sayin'?

Peacekeeper Jadaar: Are you insulting our citizens?

Griftah: It's the truth, man. Can't ya smell that?

<Peacekeeper Jadaar sniffs the air and frowns. He glances over his shoulder.>

Peacekeeper Jadaar: That... odor is from Tobias, I believe.

<Griftah’s frustrated frown disappears into a sly look.>

Griftah: ... do ya think he be buyin' soap on a roap, mebbe?

<Peacekeeper Jadaar rolls his eyes.>

• Griftah: C'mere, <race>. Ya don't want to be riskin' yerself in a dungeon, do ya? Filthy work, and for what? Some worthless trinket? Nah, what ya need be one of my amulets. Guaranteed to work!

Peacekeeper Jadaar: Truly? "Guaranteed?" We'll have to sit down and talk at length about this "guarantee" of yours, merchant.

From his conversations with Asric in the tavern:

• Jadaar: How could you have lost the evidence!?

Asric: I thought it was secure! If your peacekeepers had the clout to control the thieves of this city, this wouldn't have happened!

Jadaar: You blame the peacekeepers for your failure? You were entrusted with a simple task. The troll was obviously a fraud!

Asric: And you're entrusted with keeping the city safe! How am I supposed to perform my 'simple task' if the streets are thick with lowlifes? I can't spit in Shattrath without hitting some grubbly burglar.

Asric: ... not that I would spit, of course.

Jadaar: I was trying to oust one of those lowlifes you so loathe permanently. Next time, I'll be certain to specify that I require a competent investigator!
