History

The Rusty Pickaxe has served as a resting place for miners, farmers, and travelers for over half a century. Founded by Thorin’s grandfather, it began as a simple alehouse before evolving into the cozy inn it is today. The tavern’s name honors the old mining tools left behind from a forgotten vein nearby.

Quirks

Thorin’s pet rat, named 'Soot', perches on his shoulder and occasionally sneaks crumbs or steals shiny trinkets from unsuspecting patrons. The rat is surprisingly tame but quick-witted, often drawing amused smirks or wary glances.

Lore

Local legend claims the tavern is built atop a dwarven outpost that protected a secret passage to the mountain caves. Though the exact locations have long been lost, whispered stories tell of hidden rooms and forgotten tunnels that hold both danger and fortune.
