Iron Maiden

The Iron Maiden is famous for its gathering place for pirates, bandits, mercenaries, and almost every type of unscrupulous person.

Purpose / Function

The building that was to become the Iron Maiden was a seaside fort from the time of the Hospitallers

Alterations

The mess hall and the kitchen have been converted into the dining area of the tavern. The old barracks were made into lodgings. The walls were reinforced to be able to stand up to modern weapons and well they are armed with anti-airship guns.

Architecture

It looks like a medieval fort yet its old stone outer walls have been reinforced with steel and brass. Its inner buildings look like a warm and lively inn

Defenses

The outer wall is made of thick limestone reinforced with plates of steel and pipes of brass. This walls are maned by Freemen and old Salt Bloods. The bastions are armed with anti-airship steam javelin and anti-ship steam harpons

History

Was built by the Order of Hospitallers yet as the years went on fewer and fewer Hospitallers came so after years it was abandoned. Years down the road a pirate group from the barber coast led by an ancestor of Teuta came and conquered Malta and set up the Iron Maiden to set some legitimacy to their new Island kingdom

Tourism

The Iron Maiden attracts undesirables like pirate bandits mercenaries and almost all unscrupulous individuals. They stay in the converted barracks

You have the description part down pat. Some stories and illustrations are definitely needed to flesh out the bar. A quote from the current owner, talk of a particularly fierce battle, a mention of the local hooch, grog, rum or moonshine and how good (or bad) it is would add a lot.

Feel free to stop by some of my WorldEmber articles if you want. My favorites are The Book of the Unquiet Dead, Outpost of the Moons, and The Emerald Hills. Feedback is always appreciated.
