The Red Gauntlet was a tavern located in the city of Waterdeep during the mid-to-late 14th century DR.[1]

Location[]

The tavern stood on the north side of the southern stretch of the Way of the Dragon in the Tween Run of Waterdeep's Southern Ward.[2][3][4][5]

Description[]

The tavern stood two stories tall.[6] The interior was poorly lit and shabby.[1]

Services[]

Food served here consisted mostly of dried fish, waybread, and rabbit-and-fowl stew. Drink consisted of a house wine. The fares were cheap in the Red Gauntlet with a plate of food running just 3 cp and a tankard 2 cp.[1]

Activities[]

The Red Gauntlet allowed patrons to drink themselves to sleep and stay, provided they did not snore too loudly. Anyone becoming rowdy or threatening was slipped a sleep syrup in their drink to placate them.[1]

Inhabitants[]

The Red Gauntlet was owned by a retired thief named Daunt Buirune.[1]
