Elrick "Rick" Sandoren opened the One-Eyed Goblin Inn 10 years ago. In the old days, he was an important figure in the region. The One-Eyed Goblin quickly grew in reputation as a place of great comfort and quality, but one whose patrons should expect to pay well for the excellent service and fine food and lodging. Elrick is close friends with his neighboring Kender Chissa Topknot and the two are often seen sharing a meal together in the One-Eyed Goblin. He has grown rather fond of the Kender, looking at her more like a daughter.
Nowadays, Elrick takes it easy, enjoying the life of an innkeeper and an honored citizen of the small settlement of Digfel as best he can. Elrick has slowed down over the years and his health has degraded somewhat but he remains the same good spirited fellow he has always been and he maintains a well ran establishment even to this day.
His heart is weak "probably due to his weight gain", but he is always on duty at the One-Eyed Goblin when the doors are open, always welcoming patrons with a hard "welcome friends" and a grand smile on his face. Relithor, a Human Bard entertains the clientele, but is slightly incompetent as a musician. Most people don’t think much of him. (Elrick allows him to perform in exchange for a meal and a room, but this is really charity). The Inn houses and employs two full time serving girls, Kassie & Kitain. The dining room, well-appointed if a little old, is clean and quiet. The clientele of the One-Eyed Goblin are well-mannered folk who enjoy fine food and drink. Drunkards and louts are not welcome. They are dealt with quickly but it has been quite some time since anything like this has happened in this establishment.Two private dining rooms "which get little use" exist for meetings or distinguished guests. The kitchen beyond is spacious, with steps leading down into the cellar and up into the Sandoren's private chambers. A small stable is on the side of the inn that can stable up to ten horses.
This large structure is the center of the settlements life, bustling with visitors from morning to night. The food is good, with specials such as poached salmon and stuffed pheasant and trout. Most locals can be found here at various times. Candles have been place throughout the dining area which keep the bottom floor well lit. Bar stools have been placed at the bar itself.
The inn is clean and very well maintained, you can tell Elrick takes great pride in his business. At most times during the day, one or two waitresses can be seen waiting tables and Elrick himself is usually here as well, standing behind the bar or walking around speaking with customers which he loves to do.Prices at the One-Eyed Goblin are reasonable and the meals that are prepared here make up for short comings the Inn might have. Choice venison, mutton, poached salmon, trout stuffed with specially prepared mixtures, goose roasted to a golden brown, pork, steaming sausages, steak and kidney pie with mushrooms or truffles, squab stuffed pheasant and boiled crayfish in drawn butter are just a few of the delights which are served here. The inn may be slightly smaller than most inns but it is well ran and has earned its good reputation it currently has.
Meals are served on pottery or pewter or copper services 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 One-Eyed Goblin.
(All full meals served with bread and honey, potatoes, and string beans, yams, rum-boiled artichokes, potatoes, and string beans, yams, rum-boiled artichokes, cabbage, carrots, or spinach)
