The Griffon Tavern in Bloodhelm

This tavern is a gathering place for merchants, mercenaries and laborers, a place to talk, find work, and just relax after a day of work or travel.  There is a few rooms upstairs, nothing fancy, just some place to lay your head after a day of travel.  The tap room is fairly large, seating about forty.  There are two fireplaces, one on each end, which keeps the patrons there longer when it's cold outside.  The food is descent, stew, bread and sometimes pies the most common menu.  Sometimes there is roast beef or pork, and fruits are common during the summer.

Terrance Thunderclaw runs a tight ship.  He doesn't let things get out of hand and makes sure there is always ale and food on hand.  His servers are never overworked, but he makes sures they work for their pay.  This average looking man is fair, but hard if he thinks he is right.  He doesn't cheat anyone, but if he thinks someone has cheated him he flares up and his two bouncers, Saint and Jack, come to clear the area of any problems.
