Since I'll be shielding up in strat soon, I decided to make a short biography for Tavern_Keeper
Calradia changed when the Khan came with his army. Much death and destruction can be attributed to the Khergit hoards. Tulga, the Grand Capital City of the Khergit Khanate is not a place where the weak can survive. One must deal with bandits of every kind. And in the steppe, all people, whether peasant or noble, learn to use a bow from an early age.
Yet some things never change in Calradia. While some only saw danger in the new Khanate, others saw opportunity. Tavern_Keeper established a Tavern in the city which quickly grew to have a mighty reputation. Traders from across the land agreed that in this tavern could be found the best drinks and the softest pillows.However Tavern_Keeper developed not only her skills in hospitality, but also in the art of using a shield at the local Training Field. Indeed, she never needed fear bandits within Tulga, so mighty her reputation of speed and grace with a shield had become. Rumors spread that 50 bandits once tried to rob her, and every last one died of frustration.
Even when the Fallen Brigade emerged to rule the steppe from the depths of hell, Tavern_Keeper worried little. The people of Calradia need their ale, and they always will.
