Hair of the Dog: Barber Chirugeon
IC / RPG Forums where these NPCs may be used in RP NPCs may be used on location. Consult a mod if using them outside of it.
The Hair of the Dog, established after the fire of 723 in Saun in the Dust Quarter, the barber has a string of apprentices and journeyman barbers working under him, doing some of the less delicate and more routine jobs in the work involved of the barber's trade, as well as assisting the Master, Jim Burns. The establishment is clean in the waiting room, unless there's a brawler suffering a bloody nose or other injuries, spreading the leavings of their labor around the floor. Otherwise kept clean by a large number of apprentices, doing the janiitorial work of cleaning blood hair and teeth that might be hanging around.
It's a large two-story building. Much of the surgery and dental work takes place upstairs, where the screams won't reach those on the ground floor, waiting for a hair-cut or a service less serious than what takes place up there. The ground floor is well-appointed, smelling sweetly of aromatics and clean instruments.
There is a signature brew, a strangeness for a place that isn't quite a tavern. It's called 'Hair of the Dog'. It tases like a mix of bad coffee mixed with cough syrup. But it'll cure a hangover in two bits flat. If one is strapped for wealth or nels, they can take a barter of tavern tokens instead, and often do as brawlers make up some of their more loyal clientelle.
Jim Burns himself is often busy on his favorite customers, or else people paying good coin for his more exclusive services such as tattoos or other bespoke services.
Dental and medical services are provided on a no-questions-asked basis.
