"I understand yer frustrations. This drink's on me."

Concealed along a quiet stretch of Sailors' Alley is one of its most popular taverns, a yellowing wooden row house called the Lonely Anchor. Inside is an enormous fireplace and a room of people, all arguing or playing dice at cheap wooden tables or the long bar at the back. Many grumbling old captains and sailors drink here, and one of these days they'll find a way to address their grievances.

This is a system-agnostic location, complete with descriptions, map, NPC and story-starters for GMs and Players alike. The location features a unique and easy-to-reference layout to help GMs start and build adventures. And it’s not just for GMs! Certain players will find the location helpful for giving their characters deep backstory. 

Features:

  • A map location that can be dropped into any adventure that needs a seaworn tavern
  • A retired navy NPC, with problems and quests that need solving 
  • Descriptions and more!
NOTE: The Sailors' Tavern is excerpted from The Docks District Map & NPC set. If you liked the Sailors' Tavern, check out The Docks District for even more locations nearby!

"My GM asked for us to create detailed backstories for our characters. The description of the sewers in the Thieves' Guild made perfect sense for my character, so I used it to create a deeper backstory."
