Poison Mist Tavern
The Poison Mist Tavern is a rough-and-tumble establishment that exudes an air of danger and excitement. Tucked away from Landow's bustling square in the south-east section of the town, the tavern draws in a diverse crowd of patrons seeking a respite from the rigors of daily life, in particular the soldiers that serve under House Besk banner are frequent visitors.
Approaching the tavern, the first thing that catches the eye is the large wooden sign hanging above the entrance. The sign depicts a fierce green dragon, its wings spread wide as it breathes out a plume of misty, pink smoke. The tavern's name, "Poison Mist Tavern," is emblazoned in bold, black letters beneath the dragon.
Stepping inside, the dimly lit interior of the tavern is immediately striking. The tavern is constructed of rough-hewn wooden beams that support the structure and give the tavern a rustic and rugged feel. The floorboards are made of weathered wood, worn smooth by years of foot traffic. The air is thick with the earthy aroma of smoke, ale, and roasting meats, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. In one corner, a large fireplace crackles and pops, casting flickering shadows on the patrons and adding to the tavern's already dangerous atmosphere.
Rynnath Sparkwing, the Green Dragonborn tavern keeper, can oft be found in the in the secluded corners of the tavern, reading whilst watching her customers. The tavern's menu is a collection of rare spirits, wines, and ales from the different countries and settlements across Kalbela, each one guaranteed to set the tongue alight with flavor that caters to the dragonborn's high society tastes.
The tavern is a lively place, the patrons are often entertaining each other with stories and songs. The tavern-goers laugh and raise their glasses in camaraderie, drowning their troubles in ale and the boisterous energy of the tavern. The atmosphere is rowdy, the patrons are rough and the tavern staff, most women, are quick to intervene should things get out of hand, but will usually let the patrons settle disputes amongst themselves.
But, if their is one rule that patrons follow, it is this: never ask the barmaids for a unwanted kiss.

The tavern is run and owned by Rynnath Sparkwing, she will oft keep to herself and lives on the upper floor of the Poison Mist Tavern.
Selussa Zylrel, a High Elf barmaid. She used to own and operate the Silver Chalice, but now works for Rynnath. But the Elven woman stands out for all the wrong reasons in the rough and tumble tavern. She is quiet, shy, and, typical of Elves, very beautiful. She is typically serving during the day when the tavern is quieter.
Christoph Fenn, a human bouncer. Fenn typically moonlights for Rynnath and the tavern a few nights a tenday and during special events after his day trade at his uncle's smithy. He is a largely-built man from his years of swinging a hammer, which he started when he was a boy of eleven.
Orikon Balhylirla, a Blue Dragonborn barkeep. He is a massive Dragonborn and Rynnath's eyes. It is usually his gaze alone that can quell a fight while it is still a thought as most patrons do not want their fight to end with him waiting for his to start. He is usually the one running the day-to-day of tavern.
Osdak Suncreek, a Lightfoot Halfling cook. He is an excellent cook and appriciates Rynnath's quality.
Addiline Fenn, a human barmaid, Christoph's cousin, and one of the regular barmaids under Rynnath's employ.
Marietta and Karina York, human barmaids, sisters, and regular barmaids under Rynnath's employ. Marietta tends to work in the kitchens with Osdak.
