Black Lodge Inn The Cataclysm & The War of the Lance The current year for our Dragonlance campaign is set during 351 AC "After Cataclysm". Inspired By Trampas Whiteman

This inn and tavern serves as the public eating house for the settlement of Esker. Like alehouses everywhere, the Black Lodge Inn offers beer, wine, and, on occasion, spirits. Meals are served for those with the coin, and beds for travelers are available. A crowd of villagers gathers each night to drink, gossip, sing, and play games of chance.

Overall, the Inn is clean and comfortable, although rather old, having a rather worn look to it. The inside is peaceful and welcoming, with friendly staff and dim and comfortable. Lights are spaced around the bottom floor. The furniture was carved of wood. A bar lines the wall on the west side of the common room.

The inn is a nondescript everyday Inn one might find in any mid-sized town or village. The main floor in the inn consists mostly of an open area filled with square tables with chairs and a medium sized bar located along the west side on the main floor as you enter the establishment. The meals served at the inn are well prepared and the rooms on the upper floor are clean and comfortable.

Meals are served on pottery, pewter or copper according to the customers order. Various leather jacks, pottery mugs, wooden tankards, pewter steins, glass flagons, crystal goblets, or silver chalices are used for the beverages. The locally brewed ale and beer is supplemented by brews from other places, and wine, mead and brandy from all over the region make their way to the boards of the Black Lodge Inn. The owner of the Black Lodge Inn is an elderly fellow by the name of Old Toby Wescott. A friendly man who has been running the inn for many years. He has a cousin that runs the Steel Piece Inn in Gateway.
