River Road, 35 Miles from Greyhawk
With two ruby-paned lanterns mounted on either side of the massive oak door that serves as its main entrance, and well maintained stables located down the hill and to the right, the Seven Stars Inn is a welcome sight for weary travelers and horses after a long day's ride.
Inside, there is a large room with a vaulted ceiling which immediately calls attention to a cast iron chandelier suspended above, with seven candles burning brightly. There are also seven large circular tables spread across the main floor, and an equal number of smaller square tables along the walls. The bar is located on the other wall, to the right side of the room as you enter.
Before you can take a seat, you are likely to be greeted cheerfully by a short, plump, balding man with rosy cheeks and an elaborate red mustache, dressed in a pale colored shirt and a brown vest, with matching pants and shoes. He introduces himself as Harvey Lewes, and he will make sure your needs are met.
Feed and water for the horses? Check. A wash room with warm water, clean towels, and a pot to piss in? Check. A table for two, or four, or six, or eight? Check. For larger groups, or those in need of privacy, there's a room that can be reserved on the second floor, "But it'll cost you a platinum plate!" he says.
And then, of course, there are rooms for rent. These are located on the other side of the wall behind the bar, on two different floors, six rooms on each. The bottom floor is semi-private, with a central common area and walled partitions, but no doors. The upper floor is fully private, with a central corridor, and six doors with bolt locks that do not require a key.
Note: Although it's not shown on the illustration below, there is a spiral staircase located in the upper right corner of the main room, which leads to a landing that accesses both the private room and the upper level guest rooms, as well as a balcony that runs along the upper walls of the main dining room with additional tables and chairs.
The bartender is a tall, athletic, younger man with fair skin and chestnut brown hair pulled into a pony tail. He is dressed in clothes similar to the host, but his demeanor is more serious, sober, and business-like. If you look carefully, you will notice pinned to his shirt is a jeweled brooch designed just like the emblem on the banner hanging outside the Inn. It is in the shape of a large six pointed star, with tiny stars located at the tip of each point, and a seventh star located at its center.
The bartender's name is Robert Wealden, and he happens to be the proprietor, having recently inherited the place from his father. If asked the meaning of the Seven Stars symbol, he will offer a disappointing explanation, such as, "It's been a part of the family crest forever, but it has no particular meaning that I'm aware of." If you ask him for a menu, however, he will be happy to oblige.
Note: Beer, ale, and wine is also available by the barrel, and elixirs are available by the bottle. Private room only. Prices provided upon request.
Note: All rooms are single bed, but a bedroll can be provided for 1sp; also, the whole lower level of rooms can be rented for 3 gp.
