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?

    This looks fun ! Here is my try:

    • a emaciated monk in a corner of the tavern, who scrutinize every patron and have incendiary arguments with anyone trying to eat anything (drinking booze leave him unfazed). Call him Brother Leffe !
    • a table of 4 card players which include a very small dwarf. The dwarf can’t see the others well (his eyes are barely at table level), loses a lot of gold, and can’t stop playing until he wins. The others are cheating quite openly.
    • a hulking half-orc, laden with scars and equipped for war, chugging pinchers after pinchers of milk. Afraid of drinking alcohol.
    • a farmer with his 2 elder sons sitting with their cow at a table. It is their only chance of earning money this season and will not leave the cattle any minute. They will get violent if anyone gets too closed to the cow.
    • a pointy hat magician seems to have a telepathic discussion with a cat sitting on its table. He looks turn by turn surprised, inconvenienced, worried, anyway it looks like the cat is leading the talks at its disadvantage.
