Old Skull Inn

The Old Skull Inn is a popular inn of the village of Shadowdale.

The Old Skull Inn is owned by Jhaele Silvermane. As of 1375 DR Jhaele's oldest son, Durgo Silvermane has taken on the duties as innkeeper of the Old Skull. It consists of three floors and a celler.

History
The Old Skull Inn was built in 1280 DR by Buldo Silvermane on top of the ruins of the Twisted Tower Inn. The Old Skull has been a common stop for adventurers, merchants, and travelers along the North Ride for decades. During the Zhentarim invasion in 1375 DR the Inn was literally taken over.

Atmosphere
The Old Skull is known for the honesty of its staff, the quality of the food and drink, and its relative safety in the center of Shadowdale. It is also known throughout the Heartlands as one of the best adventuring lairs in all of Faerûn. This reputation has led to the term "oldskull" to be used outside of the Dalelands to describe an excellent place to drink.
