Description

Exterior:

You're standing outside the Frost Hound Tavern, the heart and soul of Hawkethorne village. At two stories, the building is the tallest around save the nearby temple, leaning slightly over the street; behind it, you can see a small cabin belonging to the owner with a little chicken coop tucked between them. Over the heavy door swings a wooden sign of a big, powerful wolf carrying a dagger in its mouth.

Interior:

The Frost Hound Tavern, home away from home here in the northlands. The place is small but cozy, with several tables sandwiched between a roaring hearthfire and a bar so polished that it shines. Sawdust coats the wooden floor, soaking up spilled drinks. Behind the bar are racks and racks of ales and lagers — hearty drinks for a hearty people. Garth, the grizzled grey-furred lupine owner, stands behind the bar in his usual place, wiping off mugs or carting out drinks to his handful of patrons.

The Frost Hound serves as the current home for the Champion and any Companions that the Champion may come across
