The Gambling Ghost

The Gambling Ghost was a famous inn in Myratma popularized due to its card-playing ghost.

Location
The inn was located in the center of the city, bordering a large park or plaza.

Services
The Gambling Ghost was well-known for its delicious meals and comfortable quest rooms. The prices were fair due to the presence of the resident ghost. (See below.)

Inhabitants
The major factor in the inn's fame was in the fact that it was haunted by a ghost. For the most part, this undead creature was not malevolent; instead, it seemed to want to play card games. Once a night, a deck of cards would magically appear before one of the inn's patrons. If the guest refused play, the angered ghost would curse the chosen player with instant aging&mdash;possibly leading to death. If the player accepted, the ghost would gamble a century-old platinum trade bar. If the ghost won the bet, it would magically refill all of the patrons' mugs. If it lost, it would shake the tables in anger and fill all mugs with dirty water. (Because of this, a winning guest was expected to buy a round of drinks for everyone, which could more than be afforded with the winnings.)
