The Stag's Blood

The Stag's Blood opened fifteen years ago in a half-ruined tannery and quickly earned a reputation as a stopping point for mercenaries, sailors, and anyone seeking cheap drink and louder company. Hroth bought the place after a tournament—winning the deed and a grudging respect — and has kept a rough peace using hired muscle and a personal code. The tavern survived a small fire and a tax raid; its scars now serve as talking points and foundation for local legends.

History

The Stag's Blood opened fifteen years ago in a half-ruined tannery and quickly earned a reputation as a stopping point for mercenaries, sailors, and anyone seeking cheap drink and louder company. Hroth bought the place after a tournament—winning the deed and a grudging respect — and has kept a rough peace using hired muscle and a personal code. The tavern survived a small fire and a tax raid; its scars now serve as talking points and foundation for local legends.

Quirks

The Stag's Blood enforces an unofficial 'stag sign' — a carved antler over the hearth. Patrons who tap the antler thrice at closing time can call for a free round if they sing a bawdy chorus with the stage performer. Regulars throw coins into a dent in the bar; Hroth uses the collection for 'repairs' and favors.

Lore

Locals say the tavern stands on an old hunters' road once used by the Order of the Red Antler, a guild that protected rural trade routes. Carved antlers and faded sigils in the cellar hint at rites long abandoned. Some whisper that the hearth contains a stone taken from a shrine that blessed travelers; others insist the real treasure is the network of information that flows through Hroth and his patrons, making the tavern more powerful in the shadows than any local lord.
