Miscellaneous8

Warm, locally brewed ale with a hint of honey and ginger; served in a carved wooden tankard.

Comforting; a successful Constitution save vs. mild hangover (-1 on Dexterity checks for 1 hour) avoids the effect.

A richer, more potent brew; popular with travelers looking to warm up.

A fleeting sense of nostalgia grants advantage on one Charisma (Persuasion) check made in the tavern that evening (one use).

Warm, crusty loaf baked that morning.

Jerky, dried fruit, hard cheese, a small pot of honey, water skins, and basic rationing gear.

Coarsely milled flour from local grain; great for bread or thickening stews.

A heavy wool cloak treated with wax to shed rain; hooded and lined.

AC +1Provides advantage on saves against mild exposure (cold or rain) during travel once per day.

A small pewter spoon engraved with a smiling halfling face. Said to bring good table fortune.

Once per day, grants advantage on one Wisdom (Perception) or Wisdom (Insight) check made in the tavern while holding the spoon.

A small hermetically sealed jar containing Miri's signature spice blend. A pinch transforms simple food.

When added to any non-magical food, grants the eater temporary morale: +1 to one skill check of the eater's choice made within the next hour.
Miscellaneous3

A thick bowl of beef (or mushroom for vegetarians), root vegetables, and barley — one of Miri's signature dishes.

Heal 2 HPCounts as a full, satisfying meal. Resting after eating grants +1 to the first saving throw made after a short rest (expires in 8 hours).

Simple but filling plate to get you on the road.

Heal 1 HP

Smoky sausage brightened with pepper and citrus zest — a favorite among regulars.

Heal 1 HPEating grants advantage on one Dexterity (Sleight of Hand) or Charisma (Deception) check within the next hour (grease on fingers is an excellent disguise).
Miscellaneous3

Clean bedchamber with a mattress, blankets, wash basin, and a quiet window. Breakfast included.

A night in a private room counts as a long rest for most creatures (subject to usual long rest rules). On rare nights Miri brews a calming tea that grants +1 to saving throws vs. sleep-affecting magic for 8 hours.

Shared sleeping area with straw pallets and a communal blanket. Food not included.

A steaming bowl and a cup of tea delivered to a private room. Includes small wound-salve if requested.

Heal 1 HPIf consumed before a long rest, the first short rest counts as 10 minutes shorter (i.e., you recover at the same rate but feel more rested).
Potions2

Standard red potion that heals wounds when drunk.

Heal 2 HP

A stronger restorative potion reserved for urgent cases.

Heal 4 HP
Weapons1

A well-used shortsword with a characterful nick in the blade. Functional but not magical.

Miscellaneous1

A tiny charm blessed by Miri; hangs over a door or bed to calm restless sleepers.

When hung above a bed, grants the sleeper a bonus to Death saving throws and advantage on saving throws against being frightened while in that bed (up to 8 hours).

Shop Atmosphere

Miri moves with a dancer's grace even while carrying platters. She refuses to serve raw meat and will barter meals for tales — one good story (judged by her) can knock 1 sp off a meal. She keeps a chalkboard of 'Wanted: odd jobs' near the hearth where locals post small tasks (20–50 gp). Regulars receive a stamped 'bread token' after five visits that grants a free loaf or a tankard on their sixth visit.
