The Rusty Dragon Inn

The oldest inn in Sandpoint, and also one of the most popular and adventurer-friendly

The Rusty Dragon is the oldest inn in Sandpoint, and thanks to its owner and its ever-present "Help Wanted" board is also one of the most popular and adventurer-friendly. Owned and operated by Ameiko Kaijitsu since she bought the place in 4701AR, the inn can be found just past the southern bridge overlooking the Turandarok River at the corner of Market and River Streets. The inn is the first structure one encounters after crossing the southern bridge entrance into Sandpoint. It is a large wooden building, marked by a sizeable iron dragon that looms over travelers from the building's roof. Time and weather have taken a toll on the sculpture's iron form, which undoubtedly is the source of the tavern's name. Patrons enter through the inn's common room, its largest area, with over a dozen tables, a large stage, a hearth, and—of course—a bar. The "Help Wanted" board by the bar provides a well-known waypoint for many townsfolk and travelers to hire mercenaries, adventurers, guards, handymen, and others possessing such interests.
The stage in the common room allows musicians, actors, speakers, and bards of all types to perform for the crowd. The entertainers are allowed to keep any tips they earn but they are not paid by the venue. Adventurers are also invited to get on the stage to tell tales of their exploits, and Ameiko is known to offer discounts for real accounts of these deeds.

Meals

Known for its spicy and exotic foods, it is a favorite among Sandies. Some of the finest food and drink in all of Sandpoint can be found at the Rusty Dragon. Meals can be purchased for 3sp if you are not lodging at the inn or for free if one has a good story to tell.

Lodging

Rooms may be rented at full price, or at a discount for anyone with an exciting adventure story. The inn features a dozen rooms, five of which are considered luxury rooms with their own commodes. All the rooms have names of dragon races and the keys to each room bears a small carving of the associated creature. The seven smaller rooms cost 7 silver pieces to rent, have one bed each, and are named the Black, Blue, Red, White, Green, Drake, and Wyvern rooms. The Gold, Silver, Copper, and Brass rooms are luxury rooms, which cost 2 gold pieces (or half the prices if the guest is a storytelling adventurer). Guests are also allowed to sleep on the common room for 1 copper piece. The fifth luxury room, the Bronze room, is used only for special guests free of charge. This room has many rumors about it, including that the owner's mysterious lover lives there, or that it is haunted by a merchant who committed suicide in some exotic manner.

Ameiko Kaijitsu

Jal Son of Midu is living in the Rusty Dragon. He usually sleeps in the common hall, but if one of the common rooms is free he sometimes gets to sleep there. He does errands and simple tasks for Ameiku to pay for her generosity.
Remi Love has made a few performances in the Rusty Dragon, and the tips were not bad. However, since Ameiku wants to hear true stories about a person's past, Remi decided he better stay away.
