Venturer's Rest

The Venturer's Rest, previously known as the Old Dirty Dwarf, was a favored inn and tavern located in Helm's Hold as of the late 15 century DR.
==Structure==
From the exterior, the inn appeared as hole-in-the-wall establishment of little acclaim. It was tucked away in an unremarkable corner of the city, built into the side of the Hold's numerous stone archways that passed over its stone streets.
The only noteworthy feature outside the inn simple wooden sign upon which was scrawled the crude likeness of a mug of ale.
==Interior==
In contrast to its rather unremarkable exterior, the inn featured spacious and welcoming bar on the its ground floor.
A secret passageway within the inn's cellar led into the Watcher's Forest.
===Atmosphere===
Its taproom offered ample seating and featured grand hearth that contributed to a relaxing environment.
==Services==
When it operated under the name of the Old Dirty Dwarf, the inn and tavern was considered to be the finest in all of Helm's Hold. The proprietor Juetta was particularly welcoming, catering to those individuals that were new to the city. Quite unfortunately the Dwarf did not cater to any spellscarred citizens of the city.
By the , the renamed Venturer's Rest had become a favored stop for adventurers that were staying at Helm's Hold.
==History==
While many businesses in Helm's Hold were forced to close down during difficult years that plagued Helm's Hold in the latter half of the 15 century, the Old Dirty Dwarf stood strong.
When the Prophet Rohini rose to power in the Helm's Hold some time before the , the inn became a point of interest for her foulspawn agents. They monitored all the out-of-towners who passed through its doors and reported their findings to their devilish leader.
During the Siege of Helm's Hold that same year, the inn was used as a base of operations by Councilwoman Alisara Callum during her efforts to aid the reclamation of the city.
Years after the Prophet's demise, sometime between 1485 and 1489 DR, the Old Dirty Dwarf came under the ownership of Kharissa Anuvien, a paladin of Chauntea who was new to the city. She gave the inn the more dignified name the Venturer's Rest and it remained a favored establishment for the people of Helm's Hold.
