Bartender of the House of Midnight
Region: King’s End
Location: House of Midnight
Race: Attuned
Concept
This character serves as the primary bartender of the House of Midnight, tending drinks for clients and workers. They are a fixture behind the bar: ever-present, unimpressed, and far more observant than they let on.
They’ve seen everything. Or at least enough of it to stop pretending otherwise.
Role
The bartender is not management, muscle, or entertainment—but they are quietly essential.
Shifts and Abilities
Strongly inspired by the archetype of the tired, sharp-tongued bartender:
Whether this is armour, genuine apathy, or a coping mechanism is up to you!
Relationship to the House
The bartender is trusted within the House of Midnight:
They are not easily intimidated, and very difficult to surprise.
Background
Left intentionally undefined.
They may have ended up here by accident, design, debt, or exhaustion. Whether they plan to leave someday—or know better than to try—is up to the player.
