THE PEABODYS' HOME
An innocent halfling couple, THE PEABODYS, used to brew beer in their cellar, which lies beneath their home on Fishgut Alley in the Dock Ward. Their cellar contains brewing supplies and lots of worthless clutter.
The Trapdoor
Unbeknown to the pair, their cellar is connected to the sewers of the city via a stone trapdoor, which is hidden in the floor. A DC10 Strength check will open the trapdoor from above, whilst it's DC12 from below. They are also unaware that this connection leads directly to a THE XANATHAR GUILD hideout in the sewers.
If any characters should ascend out of the cellar from the surface vent which connects to the sewer network and proceed to enter the Peabodys' small house, the halflings are initially alarmed but can be easily calmed. Upon learning of the secret trapdoor, they vow to seal it up again but allow the characters to make use of it if the need arises.
