Melaleu
Melaleu are a race of bear-like creatures native to the continent of Issenzar. Living in Issenzar’s secluded mountain ranges for millennia, their hidden bamboo forests were discovered by the rest of Sordane; as explorers searched the continent for new mining opportunities, delving into the ancient tombs and lost cities of the snow-covered land.
Frequent Sleepers
Melaleu are known for their ability to sleep anywhere, at any time, exceedingly often. They naturally cycle through sleep and wakefulness every four hours, meaning it is usual for them to sleep three times per day. In their homeland and culture this is a readily accepted practice, but many melaleu have had to adapt their sleep schedules to the more “fast-paced” lifestyle of Sordane; forgoing the comfort of their regular lives. Because of their fondness for sleep and food, many view them as lazy, but this is far from true; melaleu are capable of becoming extremely active business owners, sailors, adventurers, and more, forgoing their cultural affinities and adapting to Sordane’s practices.
Due to a violent storm, Tibor Zyste, a wealthy merchant, has taken refuge at Cloudtop Tavern. Having recently come into a large sum of gold, after selling damaged goods to sky pirates, Tibor has taken the opportunity to celebrate as he flaunts his wealth. Eager to take his gold for their own, the patrons are engaging in a series of different gambling games with Tibor, including betting against him on the Brawler’s Pit, a fighting arena pitting patrons against the powerful brawler guardian. As a night of drinking, gambling, and revelry ensues, will the characters enjoy their restful stay in Cloudtop Tavern, or will a looming threat ruin their night?
With the advent of airships and sordalite technology, the citizens of Sordane took to the skies, causing many things to adapt to the rapid changes that were brought about. The beloved taverns that provided rest, relaxation, and merriment for generations, were one of these things. No longer necessary to be built only on busy pathways or in crowded cities, barkeeps and innkeepers alike had to adjust, taking to the skies by building on small earthbergs and sky platforms. These new sky taverns were unlike any other taverns in Sordane, offering the unique experience of resting comfortably among the clouds without the rigged confines of most airships.
As travelers began to discover the thrills and sailors began seeing the convenience and comfort of visiting sky taverns, their popularity soared. Enjoying a drink and a meal in a floating tavern high above the clouds was an experience that all but the most luxurious of airships could provide. These establishments quickly became a meaningful and symbolic presence in Sordane’s skies, with travelers seeking them out for their warm hospitality, unique cuisines designed to reflect what can be found in the local towns and wilds, and stunning views. Staying at an exciting sky tavern often becomes an unforgettable experience, and many people consider it the highlight of their journey, as in the vast skies, these taverns offer a much-needed sense of comfort and familiarity to those who seek it.
