| - | This tavern is located in the [[atlas:Districts of Bornheim#Warehouse]] district of the port city of [[atlas:Bornheim]]. It is one of the largest taverns in Bornheim and is welcoming to all comers. It reputation as a dangerous place comes from the prominent fighting pit that has been made from a collapsed storm drain that ran beneath the building. It is said the patrons will bet on any fight regardless of its nature - of even of anyone in the pit wants to fight. | ||

| - | ===== History ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | [[people:Gerhard]] brought the tavern in 458 [[lore:AH]] and never really made much from it until the storm drain below collapsed. He is an average brewer and too cheap to buy skilled cooks, but he was a retired sell-sword and new an opportunity when he saw one. After cleaning up the pit he opened it up for blood matches. He offered a large purse to the winner based upon the amount of money bet for the match. A well-known and skilled fighter could earn a decent sum during the weekly fights. | ||

| - | ==== Fight Club ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | In 462 AH [[people:Xarth]] started a Fight Club in the tavern. He paid Gerhard for exclusive access to the pit and began to teach those that showed up a better way to fight. Instead of the brawlers that typically struggled in the pit, Xarth trained soldiers. Prominent members include [[people:Merrick Stonearm]] and [[people:Belenus]]. | ||
| - | |||
| - | It was a short lived club as the elves took control over most of the docks during the harsh winter of 462 ([[campaigns:Peril of Wintertide]]). | ||
