I’ll soon start my next #DnD campaign, and I’ve decided to start with a classic - the PCs all meet in a tavern. Now, the PCs intended to meet in a tavern and have plans to go elsewhere (the city of Ptolus, if it matters), but I want to start the campaign to start in a lively manner.
Which means populating the tavern with all sorts of weirdos for some good role-playing opportunities. Any suggestions?
Hollister Nimbleprick, a large nosed halfling tailor/thief, looking to join an adventuring group. He’s actually a dwarven fighter in disguise. One the run for the last month, he shaved his beard, took off his boots and swapped his axe for a rapier. If he joins the group, he will complain under his breath anytime they ask him to do thief stuff. He falls every time he tries to climb walls or trips when he tries to sneak around and accidentally triggers every trap he’s tasked with detecting.
