The Gentleman's Pub Scroll
By: Scrasamax

The Official citadel directory for all of your carousing needs.

The tavern is an ubiquitous part of the Gaming culture, where the most cliched of beginnings is ‘You all meet in a bar…’. The tavern, and by extension the inn and brothel are as varigated as the clientel that patrons them. Initially I had a notion to make a submission of 30 Inns and Taverns, but instead thought to make it an open challenge to the Citadel at Large.

Fhioban's Green Dragon
Your standard fantasy-setting tavern, the Green Dragon is operated by the half-elf and retired adventurer Fhioban Far-Eyes. A few of his hunting trophies deck the walls but the real deal is the cheap ale, the close atmosphere and the opportunity to find information and garner good contracts. People looking to hire adventurers know that the Green Dragon is a prime place to find them, and Fhioban's clean record and firm hand keeps the tavern looking clean as well as the rougher elements back in their own dens of filth and inequity.0xp

The Man-And-A-Half Inn
A large and upstanding inn complete with common room and tap room, the Man-and-a-Half caters to the multitude of races in the standard fantasy setting. To be more specific, the inn has accomodations to suit humans, but also rooms and tables sized for the halfing folk and the dwarves. The common room can get quite rowdy between halfing drinking and singing, dwarven drinking and fighting, and humans enjoying both.0xp

Grendel's Broken Claw
A rough and tumble tavern and questionable brothel on the bad side of town, Grendel's caters to a singular clientel, orcs. Now most orcs are tribal brutes set on forming hordes and raiding human lands. Others have since formed their own communities and live in the shadow of humans. Grendel himself is a beast of an orc, lamed by human mercs. His tavern is a safehouse for orcs and settled goblins as well as one of the few taverns that keeps only the green-skinned ladies.0xp

The Black Cauldron
A unique establishment, the Cauldron can only be entered by use of a cantrip spell. This renders the tavern off-limits to everyone but spellcasters. As a refuge from the brawny and belligerent world of berzerkers and barfighters, the Cauldron is better known for it's rare elf-wines, herbal teas, and meditation rooms.0xp

The Blue Dragonfly

Currently owned by Snedy Tail, this little inn has acceptable food and drinks. What stands out, is Snedy's frequent singing or humming. He doesn't really burst into songs, just happens to deliver the stuff with a little flourish, rarely making a rhyme or two for a memorable customer.

Snedy always wanted to be a bard/singer, but lacked the voice. He is content in the job, and most of the customer's don't mind the background, often entangled in their own quiet discussions. Private romances fare well here.0xp

The thing is, "The Tired Traveler's Tavern Guide" including even here, has aspired to pretty much the same thing. Not that I complain, it is just duplicate information that doesn't look pretty.

However, I salute the scroll started here. It is bound to attract some interest.

I thought the same thing, but I've endeavored to not add any actually pubs to the codex...despite it's name. Tired Traveler has that pretty much covered. Instead I tried to link the pub subs that arent locations into the codex. Probably needs a rename...

Any ideas?

Now that's a tough one... don't know. Compendium? Directory? Crossroads??? No idea really.

Add a note that inn submissions should be deposited in the other Codex, and that should do it for now. ;)

Inside a mad scientists laboratory the PCs find a short creature with smooth, oily and whale like skin. The head is faceless and smooth also. But hundreds of white eyes on the PCs from the fat belly of this creature. The PCs are about to kill it as it speaks to them in a feeble but intelligent voice, asking them to pour the contents of a green vial on it. Will they do so? And if so, what will happen?
