The Lucky Liar
The Time of Troubles & Era of Upheaval
We would like to welcome you to our homebrewed Forgotten Realms campaign setting.
Inspired By Ed Greenwood

This tavern serves as the public eating house for the locals. Like alehouses everywhere, the Lucky Liar offers beer, wine, and, on occasion, spirits. Meals are served for those with the coin, and beds for travelers are available. A crowd of villagers gathers each night to drink, gossip, sing, and play games of chance.

The owner and proprietor is a Danae Xotal. She employs several waiters, waitresses, and cooks. Danae is friendly and open, quick with a smile and a warm welcome.

The Lucky Liar is decorated with curios, salvage, and relics from across Icewind Dale. An old statue from a beloved fountain stands in the corner, the planter boxes of a local wineseller are mounted on the walls and filled with flowers, the privy door sports the doorknob and knocker from a noble's house, and unbroken panes of stained glass were hung from the ceiling and loaded with hundreds of candles for use as chandeliers. It all appears tasteful rather than tacky. The patrons of the Lucky Liar believe this is a proper way to honor the past days.

The walls are thick, the better for privacy. Overall, the tavern is clean and comfortable - having a rather worn look to it. The inside is bright and welcoming, with live music and lots of light. The décor includes elements modeled on flowers, seed pods, and leaves. The furniture was carved of wood.

Mounted on the wall just as people walk in is a job board that usually has several job requests for others to accept. The establishment is a nondescript everyday tavern one might find in any mid-sized town or village. The main floor in the tavern consists mostly of open area filled with square tables with chairs and a medium sized bar located along the far side on the main floor as you enter the establishment. The meals served at the tavern are well prepared and the rooms on the upper floor are clean and comfortable.

Meals are served on pottery or pewter or copper services according to the customers order. Various leather jacks, pottery mugs, wooden tankards, pewter steins, glass flagons, crystal goblets, or silver chalices are used for the beverages.
