User ID: @Shadoe12

House: Old Mistveil Manor

Location Name: Kyne's Keg

Brief Description: Kyne's Keg is Hofborg’s primary watering hole. Locals and travelers alike gather at the rustic hostel for warmth, revelry, brews both local and imported, savory foods, and an occasional game of chance. Frequenting the Inn is Makoac. He is the most outgoing Orc you'll ever meet on this side of Skyrim. There's a rumor that if you buy him a drink, he will fill you in on some town gossip.

Working the cook station, Thorir Rigurtson is an excellent cook who dreams of one day meeting the ambassador, Rigurt the Brash - his hero. While the diminutive mer, “The Fletcher”, is another one of the elusive elves that can be seen around the Inn Kyne's Keg. If you happen to see the Fletcher, ask her about her Boyer skills.

Bards, Skalds, and various entertainers often grace the small stage at the far end of the dining hall, adding to the festive atmosphere. Jorm Enralderson works at Kyne's Keg as a bouncer but considers himself a bit of a Skald. He has a selection of battered but functional instruments available for visitors to the inn for the low price of another horn of mead.

On the upper floor away from the boisterous rabble downstairs is a place to lounge and read. A door opens to an outdoor balcony where one can take relaxation. When the need to sleep overtakes the desire to celebrate, beds for overnight or short terms stay are for rent. Check with the Innkeep for availability of both a bed as well as a stall for your mount in the stable.

Adjacent to the Inn is a bathhouse and sauna available to visitors and town folk alike. Around the side of the Inn is a gated alleyway that leads to a path that takes you to the Wharf Rat on the Brygg-Bottom side of town. It is rumored, however, to be frequented by undesirables, so travel at your own risk.

Max Population: 12
