[QUOTE="Retreater, post: 9172515, member: 42040"] It's certainly not very exciting. To call it "vanilla" would be a disservice to the flavor. For example there's around 10 pages to describe an inn that has nothing outstanding. You get something like "here's a baker named Tom the Baker, who uses a rolling pin to attack (as club, 1d4). Tom studied pastry arts in Dunfalcon and excels at putting precisely 22 cherries in a turnover - a feat he can accomplish with a 75% rate of accuracy! "His assistant is Janice the Journeywoman pretzel twister. In her youth, Janice was a comely lass. Now she grunts angrily as she twists pretzels. "The pretzel and cherry turnover business at the inn brings in steady customers throughout the spring and summer seasons, when the River Nemo is lively with trade. During the fall, most visitors come for Bruno the average alesmith's barrels of thin-stout - a stout beer that is thinned to have an average taste. "Bruno's cousin Kyle gave him a good deal on hops. Bruno didn't like Kyle in his youth due to a disagreement at playing hopscotch - but that is what inspired Kyle to get into the Hops business later in life. The two cousins made amends (over a glass of scotch, believe it or not!) "Kyle regularly visits. He has a +2 dagger that he keeps in his boot. His boots were made from his grandfather, a master cobbler, who actually had a great cherry cobbler recipe that he shared with Tom the Baker when he trained him how to count 22 cherries in a turnover with a 75% accuracy." And you have Yggsburgh ... enjoy. [/QUOTE]
