Author's Note: The Ironclad Tankard is designed to be a haven for those who have spent their lives fighting, whether in the trenches or on the open battlefield. It serves as a perfect location for characters seeking to rest, plot, or find mercenary work. With a robust and almost mythical atmosphere, it offers a setting for roleplay involving camaraderie, brawls, and opportunities for heroics. This tavern caters to the bold, and those who find themselves here must prove themselves either through their words, deeds, or sheer strength.
Suggested Themes for Adventures:
- Mercenary contracts or bounty hunting opportunities
- Tournaments or challenges held within the tavern for gold and glory
- Espionage and covert missions that take root in the tavern’s shadows
- Fights between rival factions of adventurers, with stakes that could change the balance of power in nearby lands
Feel free to use this tavern as a foundation for stories centered around warriors, camaraderie, and the rougher side of adventuring life.

Actions
Antennae
The rust monster corrodes a nonmagical ferrous metal object it can see within 5 feet of it. If the object isn't being worn or carried, the touch destroys a 1-foot cube of it. If the object is being worn or carried by a creature, the creature can make a DC 11 Dexterity saving throw to avoid the rust monster's touch. If the object touched is either metal armor or a metal shield being worn or carried, its takes a permanent and cumulative -1 penalty to the AC it offers. Armor reduced to an AC of 10 or a shield that drops to a bonus is destroyed. If the object touched is a held metal weapon, it rusts as described in the Rust Metal trait.
