The Raucous Boar

Built thirty years ago on the bones of a former guardhouse, the Raucous Boar began as a simple roadhouse for drovers and converts into a rowdy landmark after a traveling boar hunt party bestowed its trophy head. Marta took over the tavern after breaking the arm of the previous owner in a well-publicized brawl; she patched the place up, hung the boar's head over the hearth, and established the house rules that keep it running (and profitable). Over the years it's been a staging ground for mercenaries, a marketplace for local smugglers, and the scene of more tavern songs than the village church.

History

Built thirty years ago on the bones of a former guardhouse, the Raucous Boar began as a simple roadhouse for drovers and converts into a rowdy landmark after a traveling boar hunt party bestowed its trophy head. Marta took over the tavern after breaking the arm of the previous owner in a well-publicized brawl; she patched the place up, hung the boar's head over the hearth, and established the house rules that keep it running (and profitable). Over the years it's been a staging ground for mercenaries, a marketplace for local smugglers, and the scene of more tavern songs than the village church.

Quirks

House rule: weapons may be kept sheathed but must be checked with the bouncer if a brawl is starting. Every fourth patron to break a tankard owes a round to the house. A carved boar's head over the hearth is tapped for good luck before bets are placed.

Lore

Locals claim the carved boar over the hearth is blessed to keep ill luck out — or perhaps it draws mischief in so the rest of town stays quiet. Old-timers tell of a secret sewer gate beneath the tavern floor that once allowed soldiers to move unseen; some say smugglers still use those tunnels when the tide is high. The Raucous Boar's notice board is known to carry employment for fledgling adventurers and the occasional whisper of trouble: if there's work worth doing and not fit for the magistrate, it will be posted there by sunset.
