Hollow Tankard
The Hollow Tankard is a player-owned tavern in the Terrace of Haven. It is one of the party’s clearest footholds in the city: part business, part safe base, part public face.
What was once a fading, half-ruined tavern is being brought back to life. Its walls still carry the marks of hard years, but that roughness is part of its appeal. The Hollow Tankard feels lived in, a little dangerous, and full of potential.
What the Place Is Like
The Hollow Tankard is not the cleanest or most polished stop in the district. It is the kind of tavern people remember because it has personality.
Expect:
- patched wood, hard use, and signs of ongoing restoration
- a crowd that mixes locals, drifters, workers, and curious newcomers
- strong drinks, louder stories, and a more personal atmosphere than the Terrace’s respectable establishments
It is the sort of place that can become a neighborhood fixture if it survives long enough.
Why It Matters
For the party, the Hollow Tankard is more than somewhere to drink.
- It gives the group a public base inside Haven.
- It creates a steady reason for allies, rumors, and business to come to them.
- It gives them ownership in the Terrace and a visible stake in the city’s future.
The tavern’s success or failure says something about the party. A thriving Hollow Tankard means the group is becoming part of Haven instead of just passing through it.
Supply and Identity
The Hollow Tankard’s primary alcohol supplier is Gutflagger’s Barrelhaus, one of the Terrace’s best-known breweries. That relationship helps define the tavern’s tone: local, sturdy, and unapologetically strong.
