📜 Lore of the Hoard

The Black Boar Tavern has served travellers for over three hundred years. Its Mixed Grill became famous after a Copper Dragon innkeeper challenged visiting adventurers to finish the entire platter without assistance. Many attempted the challenge, few succeeded, and those who did earned their names carved onto a great oak board hanging above the tavern hearth. Even today, the Black Boar Mixed Grill remains one of the most feared and respected meals in the realm. 🟤🐉
