The Gilded Gear

The Gilded Gear opened five years ago when Cassia-7 wandered into Stormreach asking for work. A retired Jorasco physician and a traveling brewer pooled coin to allow her to lease the alley-front building. Cassia rebuilt the place into a modest inn and workshop, installing her own bespoke condenser and a small clockwork barkeep that runs when she's away. Over the years the inn gained a reputation for welcoming broken things and broken people alike — a place where a prosthetic could be mended over stew and secrets exchanged beside the hearth.

History

The Gilded Gear opened five years ago when Cassia-7 wandered into Stormreach asking for work. A retired Jorasco physician and a traveling brewer pooled coin to allow her to lease the alley-front building. Cassia rebuilt the place into a modest inn and workshop, installing her own bespoke condenser and a small clockwork barkeep that runs when she's away. Over the years the inn gained a reputation for welcoming broken things and broken people alike — a place where a prosthetic could be mended over stew and secrets exchanged beside the hearth.

Quirks

Cassia polishes her brass faceplate obsessively every evening at dusk and leaves a small, perfectly aligned pile of spare gears on the bar for patrons to 'admire'. When a bard plays, she subtly adjusts the tempo with a gentle tick from a wall-mounted regulator; regulars swear the ale tastes better.

Lore

In Stormreach's Jorasco enclave, healing and invention sit uneasily side-by-side. Cassia-7 is rumored to be the product of a forbidden experiment: a warforged frame animated with an ersatz hearthstone and supplemented by Jorasco infusions. She keeps a brass sigil stamped with the healer-house's mark under her breastplate, but her precise origins — who stitched her soul and why she came here — remain the subject of whispered speculation. Some claim she carries within her frame a map to a lost Jorasco laboratory; others say she once served as a courier for a member of House Jorasco and remembers a name that could topple lesser nobles.
