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

The Royal Arms was an expensive and luxurious inn that served only the finest foods and drinks, often favored by rich traders and dignitaries.

The Royal Arms Inn, a rather small Inn that is said to be one of the oldest structures in Luskan. The Inn has an aged look and feel to it but seems well put together and very well maintained. Most of the clientele have plenty of coin to spend . . . "mostly being travelers and adventurers passing through the region". The Royal Arms Inn might be a small secluded Inn nestled in the middle of Luskan but it is still an important location for this city. On any given night, you might find a small group of locals sitting around, drinking a pint and discussing the days events with each other.

It features a Well-Informed Barmaid named Nika and a hearth to warm your spirits. Luskan is a smaller, more ilsolated city along the northern coast and larger cities have more fancy establishments, the Royal Arms Inns ale casks are always full! This quaint establishment is owned and operated by an older fella that everyone calls Jeb, his real name is Jebrick Talis. Jebrick has lived in Luskan his entire life and knows everyone who lives here by their first name. He is very well liked and respected and believes it is his duty to keep the folk of Luskan well fed.

No new customer is turned away as long as they have the money for their drinks and meals. Meals are mostly of standard prices, and the food and drink are well worth the price increase. The guest rooms are rather pricey but again, they are well worth the price. As said before, this establishment is rather small, only having 4 rooms for rent upstairs but the overall structure is very well maintain and is a welcome sight to those coming in off the long roads. The main floor in the inn consists mostly of open area filled with tables and chairs and a well stocked bar located on the side of the room as you enter the tavern. Bar stools have been placed around the bar itself. The inn is clean and very well maintained, you can tell the owners take great pride in this establishment. General gossip is common within these walls "with the many travelers visiting this location all having tales to share".

Prices at the Royal Arms Inn are of the standard rate and the food prepared here is excellent. Choice venison, mutton, poached salmon, trout stuffed with specially prepared mixtures, goose roasted to a golden brown, pork, steaming sausages, steak and kidney pie with mushrooms or truffles, squab stuffed pheasant and boiled crayfish in drawn butter are just a few of the delights which are served here. Most Patrons include wealthy traveling merchants, traveling nobles, and citizens of Luskan.

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. The locally brewed ale and beer is supplemented by brews from other places, and wine, mead and brandy from all over the region make their way to the boards of the Royal Arms Inn.

Visitors will notice standing behind the bar (during most business hours) - the barkeep, known commonly as lady Nika, a young woman, with shoulder length brown hair and very pleasing to the eyes.

Red Dragon Trading Post 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 trading post is located on the south side of Luskan. It is the first shop that would be seen when entering the city from the south. Virtually every sort of saleable goods are sold here. Rare and/or unusual items might be obtained at a price and in time (and will often be spurious or faulty). Magical items are NOT sold here ever!

Joran Morment, a male human, runs this business, in a large structure rebuilt after a fire a few years ago. It still bears the original name in honor of its long service providing the community with supplies of all sorts.

Although other shops and merchants have operated in the city in the past, this old trading post remains standing and a favorite of adventurers and travelers due to its proximity to the Royal Arms Inn. This shop has stood throughout the lifetime of Luskan and has been the main location for buying trade goods.

The establishment seems to always be well stocked. The store itself is medium sized to large with a single floor but it does have many alchoves along the upper walls that are accessed with ladders. The trading post is owned and operated by Joran Morment.

This trading post acts basically as a general store, and is open from dawn until dusk. It sells low-cost trade wares, such as adventuring gear, as well as rations and other simple goods, and is perhaps the only place in the region that carries specialty sail-shaped butter from a local farm not far from the walls of Luskan.

The trading post also serves as a trading hub. Clerks Andal and Thistle (two more younger boys) unload and load carts of goods and resources that come into, or go out of Gateway via wagon. Joran Morment also brokers deals for large sales of livestock and similar goods, bringing together local sellers from around the region with buyers from far off towns and cities.
