The Spirit Knight
The Haunting of The Moldy Crow
In the year A404, while closing up for the night, Frode—the owner of The Moldy Crow—encountered an unusual sight. A spectral knight, shimmering faintly in the dim light, attempting to pour itself a drink. Initially dismissed as a trick of the mind or an overindulgence in mead, the tale of Frode's ghostly visitor quickly became a favorite story among guild members, often used to tease the old barkeep. However, any doubts about the ghost's existence were put to rest later that year during the Guild’s Annual Celebration. Before a room full of mercanries, the spectral knight made another appearance, gliding through the tavern as if part of the revelries. From that moment on, the Spirit Knight became more than just a story—it became a part of the tavern’s identity, and by extension, a fixture of the guild itself.
An Unexpected Guild Member
Appearing periodicly at The Moldy Crow, the Spirit Knight's presence is considered a sign of good fortune for guild members preparing to embark on assignments. Despite his ethereal nature, Frode—named by the guild members for his frequent haunts behind the bar—has become a beloved, if unconventional, companion. Though silent, Frode’s actions speak louder than words. His constant shadowing of his namesake the bartender often elicits amusement. Tales of the Spirit Knight’s occasional ventures outside the tavern have only added to his mystique. On rare occasions, adventuring parties are graced by his silent company during quests. While he does not speak or fight, Frode watches over his companions with an unblinking, spectral gaze. His presence inspires courage, and many claim they’ve succeeded against impossible odds with him nearby. Whether guardian, observer, or just a lingering echo of the past, the Spirit Knight’s silent camaraderie is a cherished part of guild lore.Relationships
