Now, I don't normally repeat gossip, but..." Every tavern has them…. The traveller who swears they saw a dragon asking for directions, the merchant who's convinced someone's buying broken swords for a fortune, the hunter who won't explain why they burned every trap they owned. Some rumours are true, some are wildly exaggerated, some are complete nonsense, and some are just convincing enough to send a party chasing trouble. 100 Tavern Rumours Volume 1 is a ready-to-use collection of rumours, gossip, whispers, and overheard conversations for any fantasy roleplaying game. Roll a d100 or simply choose the rumour that best fits your campaign whenever your players start asking, "What have people been talking about?"
