Beaten Path -Adventuring Company-
An FFXIV Roleplaying Venue
Tucked away to the side of the well-traveled paths of the Twelveswood is a trail less worn, dappled with scattered leaves, twigs, and whatever else the sparse passing traveler might have left behind from the heels of their boots. Following this road, traveling through what the thicket hides, eventually leads to a tavern built right into the side of an old, sturdy tree, dressed and decorated with years of well-loved care.This is The Blind Boar. A passion project of it's owners and a place created by adventurers and for adventurers, with hospitality peppered in for anyone else who wants a drink, company, and maybe a little entertainment!The tavern is located in the basement, so don't be shy and come on down!

Hung up just at the top of the stairs leading down to the tavern is a rough wooden plaque, inscribed with rough text...
Tavern Rules:
People are people, no matter who or what they are.
You fight, take it outside.
You killed it, you prove it.
You want it, you ask for it.
If we don’t want it, bugger off.

Primal-Behemoth
Goblet-Ward 26-Plot 43The Blind Boar is happy to be participating this year, with a sampling of our own menu with some of the more popular picks.
Our specialty. Sarsaparilla is a fizzy drink with an earthy taste, made sweeter by added tastes. We offer an original flavour (somewhat bitter, but a good place to start!) or sweetened with vanilla.
A beverage made from fermented fruits. Or simply spun out, if you prefer the juice without the alcohol! We have a traditional apple cider, a pear variant (known as perry), or a mixed version with mingling fruits from all over the Twelveswood.
A strange blend of grey fizzy drink with the consistency of swamp water. Weak in alcohol, it holds a flavour that seems to differ from person to person. An appropriate Wake trick, if you can get over the smell.
★ 0~100- A warm and bitter taste, akin to gysahl greens. Yuck!★ 101~200- A sour taste, like lemonade with no sugar.★ 201~300- A warm tart taste, it's almost like a delicious rolanberry!★ 301~400- Cold and sweet. One might call it too sweet.★ 401~500- A lovely profile that tastes what cut grass smells like.★ 501~600- A bitter start, but this flavour comes with a sweet apple aftertaste!★ 601~700- Dirt.★ 701~800- Hot and savoury - like liquid steak. Seems odd for a drink...★ 801~900- A cold, salty drink that reminds one of the open ocean. Especially the salt.★ 901~1000- A drink that's warmly nostalgic. Evokes good memories.
A refuge for the weary. A redoubt against woodsin. A roost for those who seek quarry. The Blind Boar Tavern is many things to many people. Those who were there from the beginning, though, know how it came to be…
Ahdeh'to Jhukyu
Co-owner
An oath sworn to Oschon, the god of travelers. To safeguard the Road and those who travel it. Though Ahdeh’to, the owner, does not know what the Road has for him, he felt as though having a place for those who could seek shelter from an uncaring and destructive world would be a good start. Faced many of those same tendencies himself on his path. One last job, always one last job, until he finally had his quarry. The gil necessary to retire once and for all from the hunting boards and create his own establishment. From a hollowed-out tree deep in the Twelveswood to a log cabin along a trade road, he came far, but not alone on this journey.
C'rik Juna
Co-owner
Social, mischievous, and the bard for the Blind Boar. C'rik tends to take most things in stride and jabs back with his own playful hooks. He's a mage of Red and Blue, a natural mimic, and a showman at heart. Though dangerously trusting to those he meets, extending a hand to offer adventure (and adventure in itself!) is what drives this miqo'te forward.
