2 - The Thin Servant

The Thin Servant is the largest Inn in Sweetwater, however half of the inn is dedicated to animals as it is the main stopping location for caravans.   The prices are 1.5x the listed price.   It is noteworthy due to the fact that this inn has its own well.   The Western 1/2 of the inn is a large open air stable system, while the eastern side is a two story Inn and tavern.   The bottom floor is dominated by the common room, with two side room to allow business to transact between merchants.  


Notworthy NPCs.
  
Krolos "Perceval" Oakshield : Neutral Male Dwarf, Lvl: 4, Atr: 11/13/16/17/13/8 , AC: 6, HP: 24 Equipment: Padded, Scimitar +1

A retired adventurer and now owner of "The Thin Servant".    his beard is already turning grey, and he is known to mutter if he forced to work.     He was given the nickname "Perceval" by his companions, long since dead from usual adventuring tasks.  He always felt like a outsider, having no love for Ironworking and prefers to be above ground then below.   He is one of the five aldermen of the Town of Sweetwater, and is well respected for running a honest Inn.   Almost the entire town would defend him in a fight.

In a trapdoor under the kitchen hearth is his life savings.   4000 CP, 5000 SP, 6000 GP, 3 gems worth 500 each.  

He will also have a lockbox in his room with 2000 SP and 1000 CP used for day to day transactions of the inn.

Personality: Cowardly, Moody
Spellbook: First (2): Magic Missile, Mending, Shocking Grasp, Jump.

These two are sisters, in fact, twin female Elves who are long time residents of "The Thin Servant".   They remain aloof from any attempt for the party to contact them, and will refuse to join the party.   In fact they have been sent by a council of rangers to keep watch, as there has been increasing worries of what exactly is happening outside of Sweetwater.   They will keep track of the party, and if the party is noted as seeking to eliminate the evils, they may give unexpected help.   As the party gains levls, you can add levels to keep them in the range of the party.  Have 2,000 SP in their room in a lockbox.

Altos Chigurh:  Chaotic Male Fighter, Lvl: 3, Atr: 15/14/11/11/13/13 , AC: 4, HP: 17
Equipment: Banded Mail, Light Crossbow, Light Hammer

This man will be at the bar and will drink the night away.   He will try to present himself as being harmless as possible, but the reality is that he is a agent of the Temple of Set and is passing information along to the temple about the going on in the town.  

Iruri: Neutral Female Human, Lvl: 0, Atr: 10/7/12/10/12/17 , AC: 10, HP: 4
Equipment:  None

Iruri is a dark haired, dusky lass who serves ale to the patrons of "The Thin Servant".    She is quick with a joke or a light of your pipe, and she wants to get out of sweetwater, as she was left here as a child by a merchant.

 Gillota: Lawful Female human, Lvl: 0, Atr: 14/12/9/10/9/13 , AC: 10, HP: 3
Equipment:  None

Gillota is a older blond woman who works the kitchens and serves ale at "The Thin Servant".   She has three children by three men who are long outside of her life.

Yllara Sourleaf: Chaotic Female Halfling, Lvl: 0, Atr: 9/16/12/12/14/14 , AC: 10, HP: 4

A loud, foul mouthed Halfling, she is well loved by some, and hated by others.    She will say what she feels and does not care about what others think.

 Orius of Whitetop: Chaotic Male Magic-user, Lvl: 3, Atr: 14/17/14/12/9/12 , AC: 9, HP: 9 Equipment: No Armor, Dagger 

Spellbook: First (2): Feather Fall, Protection from Evil, Ventriloquism, Enlarge, Read Magic. Second (1): Stinking Cloud.

 Orius is a unique man.   He will come up the party and say "wanna see magic?" and then pull a copper out of someone ear.  Dressed in garish robes, he could be mistaken for a fool.   He will by all appearances appear to be a (not very good) stage performer pretending magical abilty to entertain guests.  He will also try to sell fake amulets and rings of protection and other false magical goods.  If confronted he will admit that he is a fake magic user.

The reality is much more darker.  he is a devoted follower of Orcus, and he has come to town to spy on the town, as the party gets stronger, and closer to the Orcus levels, he will try to ask for information on where the party is going, so that he can feed that to his bosses so they can arrange a ambush.   

There will be 2d6 additional patrons, plus 1d4 caravans.  For the Caravans, please use the random encounter table to generate numbers.
