The Cliffwatch Inn

3C3A Northeast Corner of Endcliff Lane & Nindabar Street, North Ward

Provender

Stew and Bread: Poor Meal The Cliffwatch always offers a relatively cheap meal that makes it tempting to folk who work labor or service jobs in the North Ward, but cannot generally afford to eat at North Ward places. His specialties are oxtail and mushroom stew, and an artichokes-and-peppers soup, all served with piping hot cheese-filled rolls Roasts and Salads: Modest Meal The Cliffwatch's most common meals are a roast meat of somekind, alongside a mixed salad of some sort; he is best known for his horseradish-steeped roast beef or salmon baked on wood planks, and salads of summer greens or slivered apple, cabbage, peppers, and vinegar. Drinks: The Cliffwatch keeps a fine lager and pale ale on tap (both Modest), a dark but semi-sweet house ale (Poor), and excellent bottles of both whiskey and elverqist wine (Comfortable).

Services

Common Room: Poor Lifestyle. Those who need to sleep off too much drink or are simply ill-equipped to afford better space are given a cot or pallet in the common room, with its large, warm hearth. Caravan Hand Rooms: Poor Lifestyle. Above the stables are a set of small bunkrooms, capable of sleeping four men to a room, usually used for caravan guards and hands. Single Bed Rooms (1b): Modest Lifestyle. The Cliffwatch maintains a large number of these small rooms, with single bed and beside stand, a chair and a trunk (user must provide his own lock) for storage. Luxury Rooms: Comfortable Lifestyle. The house's "Luxury Rooms" are much larger chambers, with larger comfortable beds that can sleep two (or three if they are cozy), with good furnishings. Master Suites: Wealthy Lifestyle. These two-room chambers live up to their names, with lavish furnishings, in-room food service, and a servant constantly waiting beside the chamber's outer door. They include a sitting room style setup for the outer room (with fold-away cots that can sleep two guards or servants), and a rich bedroom space with massive beds and all the amenities (including a bath tub and water brought into the room at no extra charge). Baths: The large tub baths filled with piping hot water are a free part of any Modest Lifestyle or higher visitors, or can be had by visitors and common room residents for 6 coppers.

Staff

Felstan Spindrivver, stout but otherwise largely unremarkable proprietor (hm) At the northeast corner of Endcliff Lane and Nindabar Street stands this rambling old inn—recognizable for its exterior galleries. These are continuous balconies running the entire length of the outside, a feature seen in Dock Ward and South Ward, but rarely in this well-to-do district. By night, find it by going to the Endcliff Tower on the city wall, and head west down the narrowest lane you can see. It's on the first corner on your right. Inside, it's well worn, even shabby—but the cheerful, understanding keeper makes up for this. He's quick to hide warm goods or wanted folk, direct adventurers or visitors to where the oddest things can be found in the vast city, and to chat about rumors, treasure tales, and doings in the city in the old overstuffed armchairs in front of his roaring fireplace. For folk wanting only a comfortable, home-like place to stay; this is one of the best lodgings in the city. Oh, by the way, tales of secret passages leading down to smug¬glers' storage cellars and thence to navigable reaches of the cellars are true. But the kindly keeper advised me not on investi¬gate too far unless I felt confident of my ability to defeat a beholder! Proprietor: The amiable, but otherwise unremarkable, propri¬etor of the Cliffwatch is Felstan Spindrivver.
