The dangers of the adventuring life are well-known to most who take up the sword, the song and the spell; orcs, dragons, the undead, disease, deathtraps and the machinations of megalomaniacs, just to name a few. However, once the adventure is over, and the heroes go to celebrate, that’s when the true test of their wits, courage and endurance begins.

While taverns and inns are the traditional locales for the party to blow off steam (and to spend their miscellaneous gold and silver coins), brothels have been a part of RPGs ever since the earliest games on the market. The following pleasure palaces and houses of ill repute, though, have more than just ladies and gentlemen of the night in them. Each of these places has a history, a full description, a set of NPCs one might meet should they choose to enter and a list of additional services the brothel offers for those who aren’t enticed by their more regular trade. Each of these locations also has a list of whispers and rumors, which may be used as plot hooks, or jumping off points in the event a Game Master wants to use the brothel as a central location for at least one arc of their current campaign going forward!
