The Slumbering Serpent

Belba and Ollwin Cralloons' establishment is not fancy, but offers a homey atmosphere that most travelers find more pleasant than the cheerless Golden Grain Inn. In addition, prices are reasonable and quality of food and drink is good.

KEY

1. Common Room: Day time- The shutters are flung wide and sunlight streams into the room from a number of large windows. Night time- Three fireplaces give the room a cheerful atmosphere. All- 2d4 customers are here enjoying a drink or five at the large table at the center of the room. The conversations are cheerful, and occasionally rowdy, but Belba will not tolerate outright vulgarity. The proprietors are heavily involved in the goings on in addition to several serving girls and potboys. There is a 25% chance that one of the patrons is a cult spy. If a newcomer orders wine, Ollwin will break out his homemade special and the first glass will be on the house. It is of exceptional quality and there is 80% chance that a PC will believe it to be the best they have ever tasted. Ollwin is the only townsfolk that seems to know much about the old hermit, Ramne, since he comes into the inn occasionally. Ollwin knows that Ramne is something more than he seems, and senses good in the Old Timer. If the party expresses wanting to know more about the town's mystery he will suggest seeing Ramne. He knows little about the strange woman who recently came to Orlane. He has seen here, but didn't speak with her, as he believes she stayed at The Golden Grain Inn.     2. Kitchen: This is obviously the kitchen of a busy inn. It is a neat, well-ordered cooking area, and Belba rules here with an iron mitten. Three ovens heat the room well, and the kitchen staff can be seen eating their meal at a small table in the corner.  Anyone entering the kitchen may be put to work washing dishes, peeling potatoes, or the like.      3. Parlor: A sitting room with several comfortable chairs, a large fireplace, a solid wood table, and several shelves holding potted plants of many varieties.      4. Bedroom: This is the Cralloon's bedroom and it has a bed with a thick mattress, a desk, and several bookshelves supporting the business records. A large, walk-in closet is in the southeast corner, and here are all of the couple's clothes.  DC13 to see a loose board in the closet. Beneath it are leather sacks containing 39pp, 496gp, 1670sp.     5. Outhouse: A simple, but clean outhouse.     6. Winery: The outer room is a small office with a desk and many records of different batches of wines, ranging back for early 40yrs. The large inner room has huge vats of grapes in various stages of fermentation. Casks, Jars, and a large vat fill the room.     7. Lavish Guest Room: This room has a luxurious feather-bed, a closet, desk, table with chairs, and an empty trunk with a key in the lock. It is currently unoccupied.      8. Storage Closet: A closet full of extra linens, sheets, pillow, etc.     9. Standard Private Room: This room has a fluffy bed, a desk, and a table with three chairs. It is unoccupied.     10a&b. Small Dorm Rooms: Both rooms contain several simple beds, a desk and a chair.     11a-c. Standard Double Rooms: These rooms each contain two simple beds, a desk and a chair. They are unoccupied.     12. Cellar: A large open room supported by two central columns. Between the columns are many crates containing supplies for the inn. More crates along the walls contrain storage of foodstuffs. The outside cellar door is locked and barred when not in use. There is nothing here of interest.
