The Dragontooth

The Dragontooth began as a battered coastal fort salvaged after a dragon cult war; its keel was built around a massive, petrified drake tooth discovered lodged in a beached wyrmling. Milés Tharial acquired and refitted the hull decades ago with the help of harbor artificers and a handful of retired privateers. He transformed it into a mobile fortress that can re-anchor, change moorings, and sail short distances within the bay. Over the years it served as a blockade runner, a safe house for rebels, a merchant waypoint, and a notorious tavern. Tales of brawls, bargains, and a narrowly avoided naval confrontation with the Harbor Guard are common local lore. Milés kept the fortress neutral in city politics, preferring profit and control of the docks to outright allegiance.

History

The Dragontooth began as a battered coastal fort salvaged after a dragon cult war; its keel was built around a massive, petrified drake tooth discovered lodged in a beached wyrmling. Milés Tharial acquired and refitted the hull decades ago with the help of harbor artificers and a handful of retired privateers. He transformed it into a mobile fortress that can re-anchor, change moorings, and sail short distances within the bay. Over the years it served as a blockade runner, a safe house for rebels, a merchant waypoint, and a notorious tavern. Tales of brawls, bargains, and a narrowly avoided naval confrontation with the Harbor Guard are common local lore. Milés kept the fortress neutral in city politics, preferring profit and control of the docks to outright allegiance.

Quirks

The Dragontooth's namesake tooth embedded in the hull emits a faint pulse that sometimes alters nearby lantern light; conversations are frequently interrupted by gulls that carry messages stamped with Milés' sigil; the fortress occasionally gives a soft, gearlike creak at dusk as hidden panels shift and rooms reconfigure. Patrons sometimes find a low hum underfoot when a tide-change is coming.

Lore

Local sailors tell that the tooth in the Dragontooth's hull is a 'tide-anchor' — part bone, part relic — tied to an old sea-drake spirit. Legends say the tooth will 'remember' the blood of those who break the ancient pact and will call storms or blessings depending on offerings left in the keel. There are whispers of a cult called the Tidemother that once used a sister relic to bend tides; their symbol sometimes appears scratched into pilfered crates. Caer Callidyr's guilds regard the Dragontooth with equal parts respect and suspicion: respect for Milés' reach, suspicion for what the vault holds and the patrons it attracts. Bards in the harbor sing about the Dragontooth as a place where fortunes are made and lost in a single night — and where the harbor's secrets come for a drink.
