The Broken Boar

The Broken Boar was carved from the remains of a half-ruined gatehouse twenty years ago by an ex-mercenary named Harlan Moors. It grew from a roadside ale-stop into the rough heart of the market quarter after Harlan brokered peace between two clashing dock gangs. The tavern has survived a fire, one small siege, and three official investigations into illegal fights. Over the years the place developed a reputation as where trouble and opportunity meet in equal measure.

History

The Broken Boar was carved from the remains of a half-ruined gatehouse twenty years ago by an ex-mercenary named Harlan Moors. It grew from a roadside ale-stop into the rough heart of the market quarter after Harlan brokered peace between two clashing dock gangs. The tavern has survived a fire, one small siege, and three official investigations into illegal fights. Over the years the place developed a reputation as where trouble and opportunity meet in equal measure.

Quirks

The Broken Boar enforces a simple house rule - any patron who rings the bell before a fight must buy the first round for the entire pit. The proprietor marks repeat offenders in a ledger and posts their names on a small wooden board. The house bard never sings the final verse of the 'Boar Song' unless someone slips a coin under the stage. A soot-black cat called Soot claims the hearth and will curl on the lap of any patron who smells of blood, purring until a truce is called.

Lore

Locals swear the iron boar head nailed above the hearth keeps a petty curse at bay - folks who disrespect it tend to lose small things first and then sleep. Old-timers tell of a half-buried druid marker under the cold cellar; the marker is the likely reason the spot healed fast after the old gatehouse was razed. The city guard tolerates the Broken Boar so long as the proprietor files a modest weekly report. Bards in neighboring towns sing the 'Boar Song' with different endings, each hinting at a secret stash hidden for times of famine.
